Excerpted from the Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna p.181

The Master Said:
"It is God alone who has become all this. But in certain places -
for instance, in a holy man - there is a greater manifestation than
in others. You may say, there are wicked men also. That is true,
even as there are tigers and lions; but one need not hug
the 'tiger God'. One should keep away from him and salute him
from a distance. Take water, for instance. Some water may be drunk,
some may be used for worship, some for bathing, and some for
washing dishes."
