The Spiritual Needs of Our Times - Based on Paramhansa Yogananda's Aims & Ideals
“To love those that love you is easy. To love those that love you not is not so simple. If you want to change anyone, set a better example. Show more kindness, more understanding, more love. That has a sure effect. To those who are not kind, show kindness. To those who are mean, show bigness of heart.”
Paramhansa Yogananda
