Comment on Article

To a fearful religious visitor the Master said, "Why are you so anxious?"

"Lest I fail to attain Salvation."

"And what is Salvation?"

"Moksha. Liberation. Freedom."

The Master roared with laughter and said, "So you are forced to be free? You are bound to be liberated?"

At that minute the visitor relaxed and lost his fear forever.
