Assurance:‘Your efforts will never go in vain’
Consolation: ‘don't be afraid of your past, Devote yourself to me, and Create your own destiny’
Understanding:‘Devotion is an understanding, an outlook, an attitude! Geeta emphasis on ‘how-to-do’, not on what-to-do and what-not-do!’
Guidance:‘Be instrumental, leaves all worries aside! Focus on Action, Let result come on its own’

- Swami Vivekananda

Reflections:
Mr. Bashar Muvier Salih (Public Relation Manager in Behrin) :
Brotherhood amongst mankind is the fundamental principle of "Koran". Allah is almighty, by whatever name one may call. I would not have invited Rev. Dadaji to Behrin if there was no similarity between Rev. Dadaji's and Islam's preaching. Mainly, he spoke before Muslim community and people welcomed his Philosophy.
Dr. Betty Unterberger :
Swadhyay is devoid of any religious or sectarian boundaries and limitations. Rev Dadaji has imbibed in himself the knowledge of Indian culture and modern science, technology and philosophy. What we have understood of Rev. Dada and Rev. Dada's work, it gives feeling of touching only the tip of an iceberg
