Quote by Michael Meade

“Run towards the roar,’ the old people used to tell the young ones. When faced with great danger and when people panic and seek a false sense of safety, run towards the roaring and go where you fear to go. For only in facing your fears can you find some safety and a way through. When the world rattles and the end seems near, go towards the roar.”

“Why was it that as people let go of their belief in the supernatural they still continued to hang on to the negative myths yet quickly discarded the positive? Nobody saw her as a tree spirit or sky maiden now as they did hundreds of years ago, Nobody even saw her as an angel, maybe because they saw her at night and despite all the lighting in the modern world, the fear of the night persisted.”

“Getting pampered can be addictive. If you are talented, people will pamper you, make you feel high and then get you to help them. When you will be busy thinking of some new thing to be done so that you will again get your moments of getting appreciated, pampered, at that time those who pamper you, get busy to focus on what they want to achieve. And slowly and steadily you see then going ahead of you and then you wonder - how can they achieve what you failed to.. They played and you let them play with you. Become aware. Be talented. Yet be strong. Learn to say NO. You are there to do your part and attain what you have set out to. Don't let pampering take you off your feet. It is difficult to handle. Because we are deep inside wired to like getting pampered..”

“Thus Sampath was gradually provided with all sorts of comforts and, the more elaborate his living arrangements, the happier he was. He made a lovely picture, seated there amidst the greenery, reclining upon his cot at a slight angle to the world; propped against numerous cushions; tucked up, during chilly evenings, in a glamorous satin quilt covered with leopard-skin spots, chosen by Ammaji in the bazaar. On his head, he sported a tea-cosy-like red woollen hat, also given to him by Ammaji, who had knitted it and raised it to him on a stick.”
