14. Vivekananda, The Clarion Call, Reverberates...

Vivekananda, the clarion call, reverberates in the inmost recesses of India’s heart:

“Do not allow self-doubt to butcher you!

Do not enjoy, even for a fleeting second,

Comatose stupor-unawareness!

Do not allow lethargy’s negativity-ego-applause

To deafen you!

Be sleeplessly active and breathlessly dynamic—

Within, without!

Enjoy your birthrights:

The sweetness of your outer success

And the fulness of your inner progress.”
