"Love is the only alchemy, the only solution in the Kali Yuga. It is the only possible weapon with which to fight the evil tendencies. One should not meet hate with hate. One should meet hate with love. I tell you, love is the most wonderful thing and can work great miracles by changing the very nature and character of man. It works from within the person, from inside, and so the change is more thorough and absolute, though the curing process is slow. Therefore, develop love towards everyone."
- Sai Baba
