“Politics is a game of power. The politician and the soldier is interested in conquering the world and achieve world dominion and the meditator is interested in onquering himself. To conquer somebody else is to destroy, to reduce the other to a thing.The effort to conquer somebody else is inhuman. The real victory is alwaysinner. It is a victory over yourself. The politician and the soldier fight with others, the meditator has nofight with anybody in the world. He has dropped all conflicts, all struggle. He does not think in terms of war. He is at peace with existence. He has surrendered to existence, hence there is no question of war. But in that surrender, he becomes a conqueror, because he becomes a vehicle of the whole. He is no more apart, he is no more separate from the whole. He is no more small and confined. He has become one with the whole.” — Swami Dhyan Giten
