{{Quote box|width=360px|bgcolor=|align=left|quoted=1|salign=right|quote=In the past we observed that those who lost the very spirit of dynamism were the first to be thrown into the dustbin of history. We shall also see this in the future. Those who have become immobile, those who have lost the capacity to move forward, obstruct the path of dynamism. Those who don’t have the inborn capacity to move forward, that is the plants and animals, should not be criticized.

Everything from our internal cells to the solar system is ever moving. Anandamurti then explains that when movement is substantially decreased and society meets a state of stagnation, its will not be enough to go back to a regular speed. On such occasion, movement must be accelerated in order to deal with the accumulated garbage. Anandamurti goes on saying that human beings have to cast aside lethargy and become active in promoting the welfare of all. Human beings have to think internally that they are not inferior to anyone. They possess enough capabilities to do good work, not for their own promotion but for the uplift of humanity.<ref name="AV4"/> | ||
