Dear sisters and brothers, we realise the importance of light when we see darkness. We realise the importance of our voice when we are silenced.

Formerly when the Govardhanagiri (mountain) was raised aloft by a little boy, the gopis and gopalas realised that Krishna was the Lord. Now, it is not one Govardhanagiri, a whole range will be lifted, you will see!

People would always be fighting over resources: land, animals, water. When I grew up, I wanted to find a way for people to listen to me – but for that to happen you need a title. At that time, I didn’t realise that sports could help me to be the way I am. Those two sides of me came together, to help me work for peace.

We worked furiously (to realise our goals). Because we didn't have fear, we could do something drastic.

Both in thought and in feeling, even though time be real, to realise the unimportance of time is the gate of wisdom.
