Bigotry impedes growth and must be shunned

Vivekananda once wrote: “Religion is a question of fact, not of talk. We have to analyse our own souls and find what is there. We have to understand it and realize what is understood. That is religion.”

Her bounties and resources are, therefore, not for one's selfish exploitations. These are to be shared by all creations
