“The intellect is not a serious thing, and never has been.
It is an instrument on which one plays, that is all.”
Oscar Wilde
Gandhi was generous in revealing the secret of the power that allowed him to influence millions and turn the tide of history:
Great causes cannot be served by intellectual equipment alone, they call for spiritual effort or soul-force. Soulforce comes only through Gods grace and never descends upon a man who is a slave to lust, he said.
