"2 Kalki 16:45, 30 August 2005 (UTC) The quote is about an important subject, and might be selected in coming years, perhaps on the centennial of this important discovery. It points to notable facts, familiar to many students of Life's history, but it is also to some extent flawed as a presentation of scientific perspectives. One can agree that "The animals of the Burgess Shale are holy objects..." and they indeed have lessons for us that we should be trying to learn, but they are not "trying to tell us" anything. They simply are forever what they are, within the complex patterns of Eternity and Time, manifestations of the patterns of Life's awareness and being, which we might seek to be ever more aware and appreciative of— but, in keeping with both scientific and rational principles, we should avoid implying purposes or intentions on the part of specimens or of their fossils that are not likely to exist. I have added 4 quotes by this author which I believe superior to this one to the suggestions for the author's birthdate. If this one eventually is used I would prefer to use the entire quote, without ellipses:"

Young though he was, his radiant energy produced such an impression of absolute reliability that Hedgewar made him the first sarkaryavah, or general secretary, of the RSS.
- Gopal Mukund Huddar
Largely because of the influence of communists in London, Huddar's conversion into an enthusiastic supporter of the fight against fascism was quick and smooth. The ease with which he crossed from one worldview to another betrays the fact that he had not properly understood the world he had grown in.
Huddar would have been 101 now had he been alive. But then centenaries are not celebrated only to register how old so and so would have been and when. They are usually celebrated to explore how much poorer our lives are without them. Maharashtrian public life is poorer without him. It is poorer for not having made the effort to recall an extraordinary life.
I regret I was not there to listen to Balaji Huddar's speech [...] No matter how many times you listen to him, his speeches are so delightful that you feel like listening to them again and again.
By the time he came out of Franco's prison, Huddar had relinquished many of his old ideas. He displayed a worldview completely different from that of the RSS, even though he continued to remain deferential to Hedgewar and maintained a personal relationship with him.
