There are no atheists really speaking, though some of you might aver that there are. For, when love is God and when even those, who do not assert that God exists, love some one or something, that love itself guarantees that they are capable of sacrifice, selflessness and pity. Probably, you believe that those who have no faith in the scriptures and those who do not aver that there is some Omnipresent, Omniscient Being are atheists; but let me tell you, those who revere their parents and foster them, who love and protect with care their brothers and sisters, who believe in gratitude, love, affection, duty and righteousness - they are theists and all these qualities are enough to save them from perdition. Love all; revere all; help all to the best of your ability. Endeavour to be as beneficial, as sweet, and as soft as possible.
