Translate into Marathi.
There is very little difference between someone who cannot read and someone who will not read.
The result of both is ignorance. Those who are serious seekers of personal development must
remove the self-imposed limitations they have placed on their reading skills and their reading
habits. We must not permit anything to stand between us and the book that could change our life.
A little reading everyday will result in a wealth of valuable information in a very short period of
time. But if we fail to set aside the time, if we fail to pick up the book, if we fail to exercise the
discipline, then ignorance will quickly move in to fill the void.
The habit of reading is a major stepping-stone in the development of a sound philosophical
foundation and it is one of the fundamentals required for the attainment of success and happiness.
