He went as far as declaring that without method you may shout 'trouble has come' and people helter skelter. In the same vein you can sing 'trouble has come ' and the same people will break into dancing. There is always a best way of doing things. All activities in life and even in death have their protocols. There is, indeed Protocol for Life. This is the principal reason for this book.' The author
