Passage 31

In English

and , who were sitting at a distance and watching the proceedings, came forward and expressed their willingness to undertake the task of spreading 's story far and wide. They took in one hand, wore garlands of around their necks, smeared on their foreheads, and went to each and every street singing the glory of Lord . They sang, “Oh people, listen to the sacred story of Lord . Let your life be His Story.” But modern youth feel shy to spread the message of the Lord. Not merely do they feel shy to participate in and to even smear on their foreheads, some of them smear only at home and wipe it off as soon as they step out on the street. They do not feel ashamed to do things, which they are not supposed to. Why should any one feel ashamed to participate in sacred activities and chant the divine name?
