179 Vegetate
Madal: Chinmoy, my uncle always stays home and vegetates. Is there anything that I can do for the poor man?Chinmoy: Yes, Madal, there is. After your daily prayers and meditations, you should go and talk to your uncle for ten minutes at least. He will get much inspiration from you, and then he will not want to lead an unthinking and inactive life.
