It is a good sign that you have such feelings. But what can you do now?

Ramana Maharishi:   Soon after the announcement in the newspapers that Gandhiji was going to fast for twenty-one days in Yerwada jail, two young men came to Sri Bhagavan; they were very excited. They said “Mahatma is now fasting for twenty-one days. We want permission from Sri Bhagavan to run up to Yerwada so that we may also fast as long as he does. Please permit us. We are in a haste to go.” Saying so they made ready to rush out. Sri Bhagavan smiled and said, “It is a good sign that you have such feelings. But what can you do now?  Get the strength which Gandhiji has already got by his tapasya. You will afterwards succeed.”
