"If when we plunge our hand
into a bowl of water,
Or stir up the fire with the bellows
Or tabulate interminable columns of figures
on our book-keeping table,
Or, burnt by the sun, we are plunged in
the mud of the rice-field,
Or standing by the smelter’s furnace
We do not fulfill the same religious life
as if in prayer in a monastery,
the world will never be saved."
~ Gandhi
