Poverty assumes so many aspects here in India. There aren't only the poor that you see in the cities, there are the poor among the tribes, the poor who live in the forest, the poor who live on the mountains.

Today it's no longer so much.

I was asked why I did not give a rod with which to fish, in the hands of the poor, rather than give the fish itself as this makes them remain poor.

Poor people are bonsai people. There is nothing wrong in their seeds. Simply, society never gave them the base to grow on.

Let these people be your God - think of them, work for them, pray for them incessantly - the Lord will show you the way.
