Quotes by T. Dench Patel
You know, we understand, those of us who get it. We all want to be liked, we all want to be respected, who doesn’t? I don’t know anyone who doesn’t, even my dog wants me to respect him. I mean look at social media, everywhere people ask you to like, share and follow them.
Hello friends, happy Wednesday. How are you doing? Now, I know many of you have returned to lockdown, while we here in South Africa are a bit light right now on lockdown since it’s a very boiling Spring, it’s not to say that some people should get a permanent lockdown or more like a lockup!…
Why would you want to live the pain, the heartache, the toxicity, the negativity, the destruction of dignity, the power game, i.e. basically the downward spiral?

Alright, so over the weekend I was present with this, “T. Dench Patel, you know we white people are so fed up, the finger points at us and it goes on and on about how racist we are. It makes me angry because when I went to India and not even going to India, I met Indians who are very spiritual and yet they follow the caste system. I wondered how can they say they are spiritual, yet they have strong “virtues” around the caste system? Also, brown-skinned people have racism with dark/black-skinned people.”
