Swami Vivekananda

81. I have no more faith in all this noise and humbug which brings no practical good.

MURREE,

11th October, 1897.


MY DEAR JAGAMOHANLĀL,

… Leave words when you start for Bombay to somebody to take care of three Sannyāsins I am sending to Jaipur. Give them food and good lodging. They will be there till I come. They are fellows—innocent, not learned. They belong to me, and one is my Gurubhāi (brother-disciple). If they like, take them to Khetri where I will come soon. I am travelling now quietly. I will not even lecture much this year. I have no more faith in all this noise and humbug which brings no practical good. I must make a silent attempt to start my institution in Calcutta; for that I am going to visit different centres quietly to collect funds.

Yours with blessings,
VIVEKANANDA.
