Approach Quote by Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar

“To think, "I am a sinner, oh Father, save me," is a defective approach! You should say, "I am your son, I am your daughter, oh Father, take me on your lap, I am your child." This will be the approach. You should forget what you do not want.” quote by Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar
