maulana, agla sawal dilli se kya hai ajay devi sahib ne. unhon ne likha hai: "maulana, what is the reason that every individual is mr. different and miss different?" Is there any divine purpose to this? " Zaroor is mein divine purpose hai, kyunke difference jo hai, woh cheez toh jis jis taraf aata hai, intellectual jo do zehn takrate hain. Agar aisa na ho, sab log bilkul ek yaksaan tarz par sochein toh koi taraqqi nahi hogi. If everybody thinks alike, no one thinks very much. Ji toh difference jo hai, bohat bari nemat hai, isi ki wajah se tamam ilmi taraqqiyan hoti hain. Yeh toh ek haqeeqat hai. Okay, so we will end today's Sunday session. We will be back next Sunday, same time. Thank you.
