Thank you so much! These mahātmas (great souls) truly serve as fine examples in every age. Unfortunately, it seems (at least in my circle) that such values—human dignity—are not appreciated, taught, or even understood anymore, much less valued.
I'm thinking how to share and teach this? I will translate your great soul writing... tears streaming down my cheeks and gratitude in my heart.
Olemasolu — your tears are themselves the teaching. These values were never widely held, only widely longed for; and the longing is what carries them forward, one person at a time. When you translate this, you will not be teaching strangers — you will be finding the few in whom the longing is already alive. That has always been enough.
