26. Assiduous
Madal:Chinmoy, I think in India you were an assiduous reader and here in America you are anything but that.
Chinmoy:
Madal, you are absolutely right. In India I was a constant and persistent book-reader. Needless to say, my kind-hearted God made me that. Now the same kind-hearted God has made me, here in the West, a constant and persistent mind-reader. The book-reader in me has made a total and unconditional surrender to the mind-reader in me.
