    DO YOU KNOW WHERE WE, THE MONKS OF THE RAMAKRISHNA ORDER, BELONG? IDEALLY SPEAKING, WE DON'T BELONG TO ANY CITY, ANY COUNTRY, ANY SINGLE RACE OR NATION. WE BELONG TO A FAMILY CALLED HUMANKIND. WE BELONG TO THE ENTIRE WORLD. OUR GOD IS THE GOD OF ALL NATIONS. OUR PAINS AND SORROWS ARE THE PAINS AND SORROWS OF THE ENTIRE HUMAN RACE. WE CAN NEVER LIVE APART FROM OTHERS, JUST AS THEY CANNOT LIVE APART FROM US. WE ARE ALWAYS ONE WITH THEM. OUR IDENTITY WITH THEM IS BASED ON THE OMNIPRESENCE OF GOD.
