+[Swami Sivananda] on Giving up Smoking: As there were no letters to attend to today, it being a Sunday, the Master spent some time in the evening in going and
+inspecting the newly-built Parvati Kutir near Shiva Kutir. While he was
+returning from the inspection and had reached the road adjacent to his
+room, a passer-by, who was known to the Master, complained that he was
+unable to give up smoking though he was trying to give it up gradually.
+
+"Give up smoking at once," said the Master. "Gradual reduction is no
+good. It will be a failure. Whenever the tendency to smoke arises, chew
+some pepper or a piece of ginger; the tendency will then go away."
