The life of Rama suggests that, spiritual strife apart, the struggle in the world is the first thing to face. If one keeps to one's own ideal through every test and trial in life, one will no doubt arrive at a stage when he will be victorious. It does not matter how small the struggle, because victory won in the end of every struggle is the power that leads man further on the path towards life's goal. The life of man, however great and spiritual, has its limitations. Before the conditions of life, the greatest man on earth or the most powerful soul will for a moment seem helpless. But it is not the beginning that counts, it is the end. It is the last note that a great soul strikes which proves that soul to be real and true.
