Rama Nama should come from the heart. In that event, Rama Nama could become an effective remedy against all ailments. A man who believes in Rama Nama would not make a fetish of the body but would regard it as a means of serving God. And for making it into a fit instrument for that purpose, Rama Nama is the sovereign means. To install Rama Nama in the heart requires infinite patience. It might even take ages. But the effort is worthwhile. Rama Nama cannot come from the heart unless one has cultivated the virtues of truth, honesty and purity within and without.

This brought an entirely new answer to the question, 'Why should I do this or that?' It used to be, 'Because self-instituted authority command you. ' The answer now was, 'Because it is good for men. ' In this lies our greatest debt to the Renaissance, that it instituted the welfare of men as the end of all action.
