30. Banal

Madal:

Chinmoy, have you ever bored your audiences with banal talks?

Chinmoy:

Madal, I am sure I have done it quite a few times, if not each time I give a talk at a university and other places. But, thanks to the unconditional kindness and forgiveness of my audience, nobody — not even once — has told me that my talk was uninspiring, commonplace and ordinary.
