ORGANIZATION

 
 

 

Rig Veda Samhita says, "Be thou all of one mind, be thou all of one thought, for in the days of yore, the gods being of one mind were enabled to receive oblations." That the gods can be worshipped by men is because they are of one mind. Being of one mind is the secret of society.

An organized society is wanted.

In India the one thing we lack is the power of combination, organization, the first secret of which is obedience.

The success of your undertaking depends wholly upon your mutual love. To make a future great India, the whole secret lies in organization, accumulation of power, coordination of wills. .... That is the secret - accumulation of will power, Coordination, bringing them all, as it were, into one focus.

We must organize our forces not to make a sect - not on religious matters, but on secular business part of it. A stirring propaganda must be launched out. Put your heads together and organize.

The term organization means division of labour. Each does his own part, all the parts taken together express an ideal of harmony.... The secret of success is there; to pay as much attention to the means as to the end.

Numbers do not count, nor does wealth or poverty; a handful of men can throw the world off its hinges provided they are united in - thought, word and deed; never forget this conviction.

So you must have a deep regard for your sangh. There is no place for disobedience here. Crush it out without mercy. No disobedient members here, you must turn them out. There must not be a traitor in the camp. You must be as free as the air and as obedient as the plant.
