53. So long as you are pure, and true to your principles, you will never fail.

LONDON,

24th October, 1895.


DEAR ALASINGA,

… I have already delivered my first address, and you may see how well it has been received by the notice in the Standard. The Standard is one of the most influential conservative papers. I am going to be in London for a month, then I go off to America and shall come back again next summer. So far you see the seed is well sown in England.…

Take courage and work on. Patience and steady work—this is the only way. Go on; remember—patience and purity and courage and steady work.… So long as you are pure, and true to your principles, you will never fail—Mother will never leave you, and all blessings will be yours.

Yours with love,
VIVEKANANDA.
