“The Reality is one. People give It various names. Take the case of a lake with four landing-ghats on its four banks. People who draw water at one ghat call it ‘jal,’ and those who draw water at the second ghat call it ‘pani’ A the third ghat they call it ‘water,’ and at the fourth ‘aqua.’ But it is one and the same thing: water.” – Aswini Kumar Dutta
