Human beings have passed through many animal lives before they have come to earth in human form. Strains of animal nature such as cruelty, anger, greed and hatred still persist in many people. Sometimes, one exhibits the tendency of many animals present in one being. When you indulge in needless and useless controversy of matters beyond your understanding, you announce yourself as a sheep; when you jump from one idea to another, from one ideal to another, from one project to another, without fully involving yourself in any, you exhibit the nature of a monkey. You must cast off these traits from your composition.
- Divine Discourse, Oct 15, 1977.
