The Responsibility of the Shepard
Dear J,
You are thinking of creating an organization. However, the success of these types of organizations depends on the participation of a diverse range of individuals. People must have things they need. There should be simple, public-friendly lessons. Those who present simple and useful things become successful and grow into large companies. That’s what I meant.
S. Radhakrishnan
Dear Radhakrishnan
It was not my intention or dream to start such a large organization. You or anyone else cannot hold me responsible for those ideas.
The general public has a lot of worldly problems, and they are looking for a simple solution. They are not ready to change their lives or learn anything. They anticipate the continuation of their regular lives and the repetition of their familiar experiences everywhere. Let them pass that way. I don’t interact or converse with this ‘general public’.
I am referring exclusively to individuals who have a keen interest in learning. They are a small minority, so we cannot create big organisations for them. All I want is a system to provide them with opportunities to learn if they so choose. That’s what these educational events are for. I don’t believe that these events should merge into a single ideological movement. They have no common principles or single leadership. For each type of knowledge, we have separate teachers.
‘Saratha’s Cleverness’ is a story written by Kalki. A heading that piqued my interest. Sarada is the goddess of wisdom. She is another version of Saraswati, a black deity who lives in the forest. She is cunning and hidden. She is known only to those who search for her.
