The family is essential for the blossoming of human personality; how can the helpless baby grow and learn, talk and move forward without the home? The home needs the community around it to keep it safe and happy. Even a bird in the bush cannot survive isolation from its kind. Man has to expand his knowledge, his emotions, his sympathies, his love. Expansion is life, expansion is love. When the community or the safe-guarding, sustaining Society is rendered weak, the family too tends to disintegrate and the individual suffers.

- Divine Discourse, 4th Feb 1973.
