Sayings of Ramakrishna 105


Dala (sedge) does not grow in large and pure water-tanks, but in small stagnant and miasmatic pools. 

Similarly, Dala (schism) does not take place in a party whose adherents are guided by pure, broad, and unselfish motives, but it takes firm root in a party whose advocates are given to selfishness, insincerity, and bigotry. 

('Dala,' in Bengâli, means both sedges and schism.)
