others... Body and mind must run parallel... When the necessity of
strengthening the physique is brought home to people, they wll exert
themselves of their own accord.
This is not the time with us to weep even in joy; we have had weeping
enough; no more is this the time for us to become soft. This softness
has been with us till we have become like masses of cotton and are
dead. What our country now wants are muscles of iron and nerves of
steel, gigantic wills which nothing can resist, which can penetrate
into the mysteries and the secrets of the universe, and will
accomplish their purpose in any fashion even if it meant going down to
the bottom of the ocean and meeting death face to face.
If you, my sons, can proclaim this message to the world - "Yield not
to unmanliness, O son of Pritha; it does not befit thee" - then all
this disease, grief, sin and sorrow will vanish off from the face of
the earth in three days.
