Sanathan Quotes

“I heard all that he told you. It was completely wrong. Be a human being first. Behave like a human being! Everything else other than humanity is false. Pay heed to what I say. Do you understand? See my tonsured head. My white forehead without kumkum. My empty neck without a mangalsutra. My appearance is disfigured and hideous because I am a Hind widow. I am a human being, but I am treated as a bad omen. He died but I had to live through tortures worse than death.'
'What are you trying to say?'
'That you must treat everyone as human. Behave humane. That's all.'
'Hindu dharma stands on the foundation of humanity doesn't it?'
'No. No religion stands on the foundation of humanity. The all stand on the concept of God. We talk so much about god:
But do we ever talk about humans? We must! We talk a lot about heaven. But how much do we talk about the society we live in? The life I lived as a widow has given me this insight, my own perspective. Forget me. Think of the untouchables. If not today they will ask for an answer a hundred years later. You think you are such a wise pandit. What do you feel when you look at you mother as a bad omen? I have given birth to you, hence I have the right to ask.'
'You live all alone by yourself. That is why you think like this.
"Whoever has been isolated like me, they all think the same way, remember that.”
