"Whenever you are in doubt or when the self becomes too much with you, apply the following expedient: Recall the face of the poorest and the weakest man (woman) whom you may have seen, and ask yourself, if the step you contemplate is going to be of any use to him (her).Will he (she) be able to gain anything by it? Will it restore him (her) to have a control over his (her) own life and destiny? In other words, will it lead to swaraj (freedom) for the hungry and also spiritually starved millions? Then you will find your doubts and your self melt away."
