It won't do to be roaming aimlessly. Wherever you go, you must start a permanent preaching centre. Then only will people begin to change. Always remember that Shri Ramakrishna came for the good of the world — not for name or fame. Spread only what he came to teach. Never mind his flame — it will spread of itself. Directly you insist on everybody's accepting your Guru, you will be creating a sect, and everything will fall to the ground — so beware!
