It is a good practice to set apart at least one day in a year for the remembrance of one’s near and dear relatives, friends and learned people that are no more in keeping with our traditions; giving a new orientation to and infusing new life into practices that have become lifeless and meaningless to many.
Let us live happily, we who have no impediments. We shall subsist on joy even as the radiant gods.
If the whole universe has no meaning, we should never have found out that it has no meaning…
