This is variously translated as "get on with it", "fend for yourself", "figure it out yourself", "deal with it yourself", or "do what you need to do".

As regards the word ''propagate'', in 1977 the Supreme Court of India held that it confers on an individual the right to transmit or spread his or her religion by an exposition of its tenets, but not the right to convert another person who hold ...
