In this book the author makes the abstract Vedanta living. He does this brilliantly by lifting a purely idolatrous, anthropomorphic concept of godhead, particularly Indian, to an ideal of universal significance, and explains how the awakening of little of Mother-worship can transform the entire world beyond recognition, take women to the highest pinnacle of their glory, make men more sublime, truthful and kind-hearted, and this world itself a better place for living, free of all tension and petty bickering.
Nature grinds all of us. Keep count of the ounce of pleasure you get. In the long run, nature did her work through you, and when you die your body will make other plants grow. Yet we think all the time that we are getting pleasure ourselves. Thus the wheel goes round.
