Guest guest Posted March 6, 2001 Report Share Posted March 6, 2001 If a man has much property, he wants to build a temple. In that he puts a symbol or an image of an Incarnation of God, and dedicates it to worship in the name of God. The worship is akin to that which is conducted in Roman Catholic churches, very much like the mass, reading certain sentences from the sacred books, waving a light before the image, and treating the image in very respect as we treat a great man. This is all that is done in the temple. The man who goes to a temple is not considered thereby a better man than he who never goes. -- ______________________________ Today we continue the lecture of Swamiji's called: My Master This is a part of a daily study of the lectures and writings of Swami Vivekananda.
