Now coming to the question of today. Humanity has in this modem civilization in reality progressed in different directions, in art, in science, in philosophy; there seems nothing in which he has not made progress and notwithstanding all progress humanity has never met with such a catastrophe before. Not only man suffered, nothing in the whole creation has been spared suffering; even the fishes in the water have been disturbed. It has disturbed the inner world as well as the outer world. As man's external condition influences his inner condition so is the condition of the inner world influenced by that of the outer world. All the floods, famines, plagues, which we suffer on earth are the results of the external condition and the reaction upon the inner world.
