Diary Entry 28th February 2012

I had a blissful day distributing books in downtown Dar es Salaam. The main street was a hive of activity – taxis, busses, a huge sea of people coming and going, street vendors on every corner selling everything from belts, wallets to exotic fruits of all kinds.

People would stare at me with a curious look, but all the time smiling and greeting me. I stopped one barrister on his way to court, dressed in his court dress, and traditional white shirt and neck tie. I began to speak to him and told him the reason the laws are not working, is because Continue reading “Law Books for the next 10 000 years”

Go on preaching, that is the highest perfection of activity, and do … Continue reading Letter to Brahmananda – India, 3 November, 1972
