Culture Quote by Dada J P Vaswani
“We must turn back to God. We have thrown God out of our homes, schools, colleges and universities and the vacuum so created has been filled in by the devil. Children have no reverence for their parents; students have no reverence for their teachers. Reverence, I believe, is at the root of the right type of life. So many young people come to me with their problems, I tell them, dont forget that you have this human birth only because of your parents, so please show some reverence to them. Only when irreverence changes to reverence, there will be hope for everyone.”

The vast majority of Father's children have not only forgotten their Father in Heaven and the purpose…” quote by Richard G.
