CLII
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA,
24th Jan., 1900.
DEAR MARGOT, (Margaret E. Noble or Sister Nivedita)
I am afraid that the rest and peace I seek for will never come. But Mother
does good to others through me, at least some to my native land, and it is
easier to be reconciled to one's fate as a sacrifice. We are all sacrifices
— each in his own way. The great work is going on — no one can see its
meaning except that it is a great sacrifice. Those that are willing escape a
lot of pain. Those who resist are broken into submission and suffer more. I
am now determined to be a willing one.
Yours etc.,
VIVEKANANDA.
