On the other side of the Ganga a big plot of land will be acquired, where unmarried girls or Brahmacharini widows will live devout married women will also be allowed to stay now and then. Men will have no concern with this Math.

You must also remember that the world has God to govern it, and He has not left it to our charity.

If all these persons were to die, it would go on none the worse.

The difference between God and the devil is in nothing except in unselfishness and selfishness. The devil knows as much as God, is as powerful as God only he has no holiness that makes him a devil. Apply the same idea to the modern world: excess of knowledge and power, without holiness, makes human beings devils.
