If God is ever and everywhere present, and if the soul is that part of this presence in everyone, then it is clear that there is no need to go to India in search of it. To believe otherwise is to tie oneself unnecessarily to a shackling-iron. A man may never land on the shores of India but he may still find the soul and thus become aware of his relationship to God.
