THE REVEALED
I
The booming commotion
of Existencethat rolls
in the bosom of the Beyond,
evolves into a
thrilling rhyme
and upheaves
into a shooting Becoming
of the Being with echoes
that float
with an embodiment of Energy-
that is Logos, the Word
the Beginning !
II
He, the Word-the Source of Creation
manifests Himself
with all His properties
into all that hath manifested,
but the Beyond
comprehended Him not
though He shineth in the bosom
of the Beyond !
III
It is Energy
which lies
in the embodiment
of Word that remains
as He is
though manifesting Himself
into all that was created
That is God,
That is Word,
That is Divine !

The thrill of Existence which occurs
due to Apathy and Sympathy
for What lies Beyond,
is a stream of Will
that tends to make the Wordto become conscious
in manifesting Himself into many
like Him albeit unlike
by their mutual impulses,
moving
spiro-elliptically
one round the other !
V
Beyond is what intervenesto make
the manifestations
unlike, different and discrete,
though the Affinity
that lies under,
tends always to make
all to be One !
VI
The inter-action ofmanifestations of Word
in the Beyond
makes the unlike, different
and discrete,
instinct with life
from fine to gross ;
thus the Divine creates Himself
into life
surrounded with blood and flesh
which are enlivened too !

different, discrete
finer and grosser
blood and flesh are manifested ;
blood and flesh
are embodied with lifeas beings, as creatures
from which Man comes forth
by degrees ;
discrete individuals with
other phenomena
become the environment
of every individual,
and make it awaken,
in life and consciousnesswith the thrust of impulses
from mutual affinity :
while on the other hand
He, the Word
became Supreme Being,
the Father to the manifested
and The Individual
who comes forth
ever-enchantedwith sympathy and love
for the Supreme Being,
at the crying call
of panic-stricken sufferers,
becomes the Beloved God in flesh
the Divine,
the Ideal,
The Way to rescue !
VIII
Only then recedes the Beyond
when, sympathy invokes love
to make one attached to Him
by Whom
Being and Becoming

is accelerated ;
and then
knowledge appears
with an
illuminating zeal !IX
And knowledge shines
and
redeems theBeing to accelerate
fulfilling in a concord
the Ideal, individual
and environment,
towards Becoming
towards a superior Becomingwith a gradually unfolding
memory
of the Father
by service and surrender
unto the Beloved !
X
And when rappings on
the thrilling tension
of attachment to the Belovedoccur
due to the thrust of environment
and complexes
directly and collectively,
the impressions rebound
and set in the individual
according to sympathy and apathy,
with a tremor of sensation
into resultants,
and are adjusted
with a solution
tending towards his interest ;
thus knowledge grows
with a gradual generalization

of experiences
into a subtler and subtler harmony
of the individual,
the Ideal and wisdom ;
In this wayas varieties of rapping
diminish gradually,
the individual
plunges into the Beloved
through a grand generalization of
wisdom !
XI
The sympathetic affinity
that induces her opposite-equalto dwell in herself,
and breeds to beget him
measured in different shapes,
is Female ;
whereas the entity that inclines
towards female
to fulfill her
is Male ;
apathy always resists the oneto become the other :
Female is the shelter
that nourishes, absorbs
and reproduces one into many ;
and the inclination of the Male
towards female
without something to
uplift existence,
dwindles them
to decease !

CHALAR SAATHI(Comapnion on the Way )
Roll onlike a flood
over the sorrow, sufferings
and calamities of the World,
with love, sympathy and service
and with the message
of Beloved the Lord,
with a knowledge and activity
that illuminates
the way of the dull,and deteriorating depressed;
flow on
extremely unresting and undisturbed;
if female wants
let her run after you,
proclaiming admiration and worship,
establishing the kingdom
of peace and happiness
with a wistful soothing gaze
after her beloved;
but wish not
for that
at all ! 1
CONTINUITY BRINGS SUCCESS
Whether you understand or do not understand,whether you can do or cannot do,
let the continuity of your effortremain unbroken and unobstructed;
seek out the way to attainment (siddhi),you will be successful,
accomplishment will come,and your establishment will surely
establish your Ideal,know it for sure! 2

SERVICE ACHIEVES RENOWN
Remain ever serviceable to peoplein such a way that through your service
in fulfilling the needs of your environmentas far as possible
they can embrace life, glory and growth,and by so doing
spread out into everyones heart,and let these things become your character,
you will see,renown, with constant victory songs.
will make your glorious,no doubt ! 3
NATURES ABHORRENCE
Nature abhors those
who insult and colourthe perceptible
which are before their senses,
on the testimony of
indirect knowledge ! 4
THOUGHTS OF SADNESSDo not stay troubled by thoughts of sadness;
the feeling of sadness cannot gladden anyone!Rather, think
how you can make people happy,
what kind of behavior makes people happy,how that can be done, and the like,
and set yourself to work,
you will be happyand able to make others happy too! 5
WISDOM THROUGH LOVE
From mental equilibrium and lovecomes the advent
of wisdom and the vision that sees good;but from conflict, lack of faith, and dissatisfaction
ignorance and pessimism are created! 6
PAIN AT OTHERS FORTUNE
If you want to lose your way and fall into troubleby making yourself unfortunate
then never in the least renouncethe feeling of pain at others fortune. 7

WILLINGNESS TO WORK THROUGH LOVE
From loveconstancy, joyfulness and willingness to work arise;
and from aversion comedepression, inactivity, sadness
and lack of peace! 8
OPTIMIST AND PESSIMIST
It is the optimist who finds a golden opportunity
for progress and delight
within trouble, danger, obstruction, and sorrow!
But the pessimist
at once finds within all good
inability and impossibility
ineradicable suffering of misfortune! 9
FAULT-FINDINGOBSTACLE TO UPLIFTMENT
If you want to become elevated,
bid farewell to fault-finding forever;
whatever good quality you see in a person,
think of that, speak of that,
and discuss it;
if you can, be careful
that no ones fait
does any kind of damage in you! 10
FAULT-FINDINGIf fault is to be found,
it has to be contemplated;
it has to be brought out by thinking it over;
and with that, one is to keep awake
a sense of irritation or hostility,
and in doing this,
just such feelings will be stored in the brain;
you will find how after some days
you are acting out those faults;
so be careful
of fault-finding,of contemplating faults,
and of irritation and hostility! 11

EMPTYING-OUT THE FAULT
And if you have at all found fault with anyone,
and it remains stored in your head,
enquiring into its cause and circumstances,
properly understanding how it became possible,
with a feeling of sympathy
empty out from your head what is stored there
in such a manner that it becomes abnormal to you
for this kind of thing to happen again! 12
HYPOCRISY
Hypocrisy by goadingneighbours to an illusion
blurs the door of prosperity ! 13
DISCERNING OF CHARACTER
Talk, thought, dealings and activitiesdeclare, redeem and indicates
what he really is
and, what he can get ! 14
GAINING ATTAINMENT (SIDDHI)
Doing, adherence, observation and following,
these few establish
perception, knowledge, skill,
and attainment (siddhi) !15
THE ROYAL SIGN OF SUCCESSRegarding one whose vision of good fortune and opportunity
blooms in times of difficulties
with faithfulness, gratitude and skill in work,
you can say with utmost certainty,
whatever he may be, it is absolutely sure
that his head will be graced
with the crown of success! 16
EFFICIENCY AND DEXTERITY IN LOVE
Love alone can discover how its beloved
can be elevated in life, glory, love and growth,and thus overflow into his environment;
so, love alone,
gathers normal wisdom in one,
establishes the beloved practically
with efficiency and dexterity!17

LUXURY OF THOUGHT
Whenever you find that any thought or movement of yours
does not invoke activity,
or does not stick to activity,
understand
that is only a luxury
of your thought or imagination! 18
THE TOUCHSTONE OF PURE DESIRE
For the sake of some desire you have
you cannot ignore the complexes antagonistic to it,
this is the means of knowing
that your desire is not pure ! 19
FOPPISH* WISH
Your go, character, words, behavior,
and continuity or adherencedo not go near,
or find it difficult to go near
the way of doing or the way of being
by which the object of your desire
can be had,
definitely understand
your desire is not at all pure;
it is rather mere foppishness of desire. 20
*foppishcapricious, whimsical.
VISION COLORED BY CONCEPTIONIn whatever way your thought and conduct
has shaped your nature,
wherever you go, whatever you see,
your nature will conceive the environment
in just that way
and see it in just that way! 21
VICTORY THROUGH FULFILLING NEEDS
If you want to conquer,
not by overwhelming through the application
of external force,stand up and be enthusiastic and practical
in fulfilling ones needs! 22
YES CAN
There is as much difference
between being able and not being able

as there is between yes and no;
one who does not invite the not into the being able,
who has no question about being able,
yet depends on doing,
who is not stopped in the joy of doing by anything,
he can! 23
NO CANNOT
And, one who wants to haggle with the thought of
being able
by inviting no in
to whom no is so trustworthy!
for whom there isnt any feeling, any thought
or any activity
without no,
however much he may equip himself
with the paraphernalia for being able or doing,
everything of his,
embracing that no,
falls into the numbness of sleep! 24
THE WAY TO PERFECTION
To think I cannot do
or to have doubts about being able
actually creates the not-being-able;
banish the no and the doubt from being able
stick to it, try,
perfection is before you! 25
NO AS A RELATIVE
If one whose wife is no
and whose brother-in-law is it cant be
is given a warm reception,
the throne of adversity will remain unshaken,
no doubt! 26
INSPIRATION FOR EFFICIENT WORK
As easy and swift the inspiration anywhere,
so natural and indomitableis the efficiency in work there! 27
HAPPINESS
Enlivening, elevating, and delighting
your being,
and disseminating it into the environment,

it makes everyone elated,
if anything is to be called happiness,
it is this! 28
POVERTY THROUGH IDLENESS
Idleness, I cannot, It cannot be,It cant be done,
be careful and alert
about all such thoughts and conduct,
for they easily infect the progeny,
and the environment is contaminated by them;
as a result, family, society and country
are stupefied, prostrated and depressed,
and thus finished off in terrible poverty! 29
FULFILLING NECESSITIES
Do not give indulgence to idleness;be intent on service;
felicitate people by receiving them respectfully,
to the best of your ability;
in whatever way you can,
help in the fulfillment of others necessities;
remaining pleased and satisfied yourself,
please and satisfy others;
you will see,
even if you dont want them,
fortune and resources
will freely remain with you;
poverty, staying far away,
will bow down to you! 30
CHEATING
If you want to keep
the love of cheating unbroken,
then why should you take any trouble
in efforts to nourish the one
by whose provision you are being nourished? 31
FRIENDS OF POVERTY
With idleness, distrust, self-concern and ingratitude
as friends,
you will not have to search for poverty,
or even with one of them;
each of them is such a friend of poverty

that it cannot get along
if any are missing;
if this kind of wealth has settled in your heart
you will not have to bear
the distress of lacking sorrow! 32
SPOILING WORK THROUGH PROCRASTINATION
Procrastination is the friend of idleness
the guide to the spoilage of work!
do bid farewell to procrastination
by doing what is to be done
immediately;
efficiency and success
will be your servants! 33
GREED
Excessive eager desire
which goes beyond appropriate needs
may be called greed;
be wary of this transgression,
because by leading you into depression,
it may end up in your death! 34
DISTRESS THROUGH ANGER
One maddened by anger
obstructs others,
there being no control over his selfish blindness;distress, all-conquering,
follows him with loud laughter! 35
SELF-INTEREST
To fulfill him from whom one gets,to make him exuberant,
and to remove anything that restricts acquisition for himis the meaning of self-interest;
where receiving has become prominentwithout fulfilling the source from whom one gets,
self-interest, swallowed up by error,withers and falls senseless certainly! 36
RESULTS OF STEALINGSteal not,
intelligence chafed with desire,without giving anyone a loftier recoupment,seeks an unjust and secret satisfaction,

that is stealing;in stealing
the intelligence,by going on harming others day by day,
disappears into deterioration;
through doingin the way by which desire is fulfilled
perception and knowledge are awakened
and thus the object of desire is achieved;but in stealing
this process is wounded and depressed,and one embraces what is contrary to Dharma;
for these reasons stealing is so hateful,so sinful, so mean;
therefore I say,do not bring destruction upon yourself
and your environmentby giving indulgence to this thieving mentality,
be careful! 37
CONQUERING THE PASSIONS
Do not become disturbedin the effort to conquer the enemies
lust, anger, and the like;that feeling of disturbance actually establishes them;
instead, make the passions desistby engaging in some subject or feeling
which is so attractive
that the matter of passion hardly comes up for you;see
how easy it is to master a passion! 38
SAVINGS AND SERVICE
Accumulate savings,but for service!
if your savings do not offer worship to service,
know for surethey are for something that hurts becoming! 39
ATTENDANCE WITHOUT SERVICE
Service means that which makes a personfit, at ease, elevated and delighted;
when it does not do so,
yet attendance is provided,that service invites only denial! 40

FOOLISH SERVICE
Where service cannot bring well-being, delightand upliftment,
moreover, the exertion, anxiety and restlessnessall end up in futility.
know for surethat service is foolish service! 41
ADJUSTMENT OF DEVILISH EGO
Whenever your ego wants to establish itselfby slighting or denying another,
then know it to be the devilish ego;
engage your ego in such a mannerthat by directing it
you can invite the life, glory and growthof your environment! 42
DEMAND OF THE UNSERVICEABLEWithout doing at least something of service to a person
through which he gets comfort, peace and delight
when the time comes to get something from someone,dont try to get it by demanding from him,
saying that he is your own man;you wont get anything that way;
rather, humiliation and neglectwith a deadly unexpected blow
will make you sorry! 43
DEATH AND IMMORTALITYAs much as you become attached to the many
to each according to its kind
without aiming at one,
then each of those particular attachments
separately and in various ways,
with the creation of scattered complexes
goes to tear you to pieces,
and thus clears the path to ignorance and death;
and whenever you embrace the many,
having taken your stay in devotion to one,
then those many thingsand the complexes created out of them,
achieving a state of restraint
through that devotion to one,
and gradually falling into order,

will invite immortality
with the enkindling of perception and wisdom! 44
EVIDENCE OF IDEAL-CENTEREDNESS
As much as you become dedicated to the interest of the Ideal,
so much will skill in service, efficiency in work,sweetness in words and behavior,
sympathy and expansiveness
anoint your character
and become reflected in your environment;
the urge
which has made you dedicated to the interest of the Ideal
which has made his establishment your supreme interest,
compelling you, though without your knowing it,
will shape you in this way;
and this very thing is the evidence
of your Ideal-centeredness! 45
CONSCIOUSNESS AND DHARMA THROUGH IMPACT
You are conscious just then
when your environment makes an impact on you;
and this consciousness is the infallible evidence
that you are alive!
so, as is the kind of impact your environment makes on you,
such will be the way
your feeling, perception and passion
come together;
if this is so,then Dharma is the doing
by which you along with your environment
can grow in continuous expansion
of life, glory and growth;
speak, practice and perform
whatever makes you and your environment
become of this nature,
you will see how greatly you are relieved
from misfortune, evil and fear ! 46
THE IDEAL AND DEVOTION TO HIMService to him, keeping his company,
and pursuing him with devotion
make a person gradually uplifted in life, glory and growth;
when single-minded attachment or devotion is fixed
on him,

and when it stays unbrokenly adhered
the environment and world being unable
to produce any kind of scattering,
so that those scatted impulses (from the environment)
are related and adjusted
and achieve meaningfulness,
then that devotion,
prospering in feeling, knowledge and perception,
embraces immortality,
he alone is the Ideal, or the Guide,
the Beloved;
that is why single-minded devotion
to Ideal, Beloved or Guide
is so essential in human life;
if you want to carry on your life keeping Dharma unbroken,
then Ideal, Beloved or Guide is of primary necessity!placing your attachment, devotion or love
in him
and considering him the supreme interest,
follow him;
you will be successful! 47
WHAT LOVE WANTS
Prema (supreme love) or love wants to establish
its beloved in life, glory and growth
by squeezing out all that it has;
the beloved is its supreme interest;it searches through its world,
and whatever it finds that is beneficial
to life, glory and growth,
it brings to equip its beloved,
and in this it feels itself to be meaningful,
and its nourishment, satisfaction and liberation
lie only in this;
it doesnt want to be independent excluding him;
submission to the beloved
and service to the beloved
comprise its Dharma, wealth, desire and liberation;*while making its beloved abundant
in perception, knowledge, work, life, and resources
in this way,
prema imperceptibly becomes established
in abundance itself;

hence prema is so sinless
and so very great ! 48
*Dharma, artha, kama and moksha are the four goals
of life in traditional Hindu thinking.
WHAT LUST WANTSLust want to get the one it lusts after
as a present,
and in the way it wishes;
it is completely unwilling to bear the difficulty
of making the one it lusts after
prosper
if no breach of any kind takes place in its enjoyment
because of that unwillingness;
thus lust makes a person foolish,
steals from his world,
and, to whatever extent greed for enjoyment
somehow keeps him enkindled,
wants to keep him confined in its boundaries;
and the termination of that
is the termination of everything!
this is why it has no expansiveness;
life and glory are in a state of contraction;
its stay is in the death-puzzle
of the bottomless pit of darkness,
that is sin;
so it is weak, depressed and unknowing.Considerwhat do you want ? 49
SUBDOING LUST THROUGH LOVE
One who goes to subdue lust
without depending on love
is generally destroyed by lust
in an horrendous upheaval ! 50
IMPARTATION OF THE BELOVED
Spontaneous extolment of the Beloved
and a natural tendency to impart him to others
comprise one characteristic signof attraction or love;
from this it can be understood
that one is well-content and radiant
in acceptance of the Beloved! 51

LOVE IN CONTRARY CONFLICTS
If feeling, devotion and love
do not become indomitable
in conflicts that are contrary to them,
then it is of course doubtful
whether they were there in the first place! 52
SATANS SORCERY
If, tempted by something,
you pas over your Ideal,
thought that neither has him as objective
nor establishes him,
do understand
by Satans sorcery
you have become entranced and enticed;
even now if you turn away from it,
you can take hold of deliverance ! 53
CONSCIENCE
The response of the environment
which is in the brain as memory and knowledge,
to reflect on that is conscience;
and one who determines what is to be done
by that kind of reflection
is conscientious ! 54
TRUE LOVE
Making ones heart overflowing,and extending into the environment,
love establishes the beloved
through service and Jaajan;*
and where this is absent,
be doubtful about the love;
try to understand! 55
MENTAL POVERTY THROUGH APATHY TO JAAJAN
When you see that your inclination to Jaajan
is becoming poor, or has ceased,
know for sureyour minds perceptiveness and enjoyment
day by day have become weakened
and are becoming more so! 56

Jaajan, making anew the one who receives it,
gives him enjoyment in various ways;
that is why jaajan regarding wisdom or supreme love
is an easy stairway of progress! 57
ENJOYING THE BELOVED THROUGH JAAJAN
When love or wisdom makes life elated,
then only does the inclination to Jaajan
become ardent in searching for new persons
in various ways;
it wants to speak in various ways
and in various fashions
about what is dear to it,
and by doing so
wants to enjoy in various ways;
whenever you see that this searching and finding
is beginning to stop,
the perception and expansion
of the beloved within you
is becoming inert! 58
MANY-GUISED LUST
Where not getting makes you sorry,
where someones prospering makes you depressed
and someones appreciation of others perturbs you,
yet attachment and attraction
are making you extremely greedy,do understand that love is not there;
what is there is many-guised lust! 59
SHELTER AND ATTACHMENT IN DEPENDENCE
Much better than depending on someone
for the sake of getting shelter
is depending on someone on account of attachment;
in the former case ones character may not be colored;
in the second case though
it definitely must be
but this depends on the person! 60
DOUBT
The doubter,
always doubting the tendency to progress,
by suppressing activity
calls in his own ruin! 61

ON GETTING
To get
pursue doing;
mere consideration
often paralyzes the getting! 62
SORROW
If sorrow, by invoking regret,
narrows the path to downfall,
then it is befitting;
otherwise it is best to neglect it! 63
TO DOUBT ATTACHMENT
To deny or doubt or analyze
ones own feelings, devotion, and love for someone
and to dump the Elixir of Life
into the dustbinare one and the same thing! 64
JAAJANEGOISTIC AND LOVING
When Jaajan is a matter of ones own egotism,
though done in the name of the Beloved,
if it is assailed
it falls into depression;
by this sign you can determine
whose Jaajan you are doing;
if Jaajan is born out of love,
and is for the Beloved,then in opposition or unexpected injury
it becomes so indomitable, victorious,
and enjoyable for both
that is comprehensible only
to the one who has enjoyed it! 65
EGOISTIC JAAJAN UNDER A MASK OF LOVE
Whenever you have become ardent to establish
your indispensability, importance and supremacy
before your Beloved
by speaking about the success, glory and enjoyablenessof your Jaajan,
and the least lapse in that establishment,
making you impatient,
is arousing pain and opposing feelings
in regard to the Beloved and his environment,
understand

this Jaajan is not out of love for your Beloved,
but merely out of love for ego! 66
WRETCHEDNESS IN DISREGARD OF IDEAL
If a man does not pursue glory
for the sake of establishing his Ideal,and is devoted to sex-enjoyment and money
for establishing his self-interest,
and hence gathers contempt and fruitlessness,
it is better not to call him a man,
but rather, a wretch! 67
GROWTH AND DOWNFALL IN PREACHING
Whatever you preach about will grow,
so watch out
not to direct your tendency to preach
toward that which brings the downfall of life and growth,do not die, nor cause death! 68
OBSTACLES TO NORMAL WISDOM
One who sees or perceives
each and everyone of the world
by putting on the eyeglasses of hearsay
or of ideas fabricated by his own mind,
is never at all troubled
by normal wisdom! 69
FEELING IN CHARACTER AND CONDUCT
As is the feeling residing in youin a certain way at a certain time,
so, in general, will be your thought, conduct
and speech;
and however elevated it becomes
and thus remains thoroughly absorbing to you,
such will be the elevation
of your thought, conduct and speech! 70
TRUTH AND FALSEHOOD
That which has existence and expansion,
and that which, keeping the being unharmed,leads it in progress,
and moreover does not bring discord or cessation
to any other being
is truth;
again, that which harms this being

and scatters anothers being
or causes it to deteriorate
is falsehood! 71
SADHANA AND SUCCESS
The harmonious repeated effortto comprehend the means for mastering something
is called sadhana;
and when as a result of knowing and doing it
the character flourishes
then success (siddhi) embraces it! 72
FATE AND RESULTS OF ACTION
Your continuous effort in activity
affects the environment,
and the results of your actions issue out from it
and become transformed into various forms throughthe transmission;
as a result of this, what is waiting for you
outside the limits of your knowledge
is your fate! 73
PROVIDENCE AND PERSONALITY
Inherent instincts born of spontaneous distinctiveness
with which one is born
and the way the environment accepts one
as a result of them,
that is Providence;and personality is
that power laid within distinctiveness
which, making one real,
guides one within nature and the environment! 74
SPIRITUALISM
The feeling
which weaves through and through existence
and by this is inspired and adjusted,
and thus is reflected in thought, conduct and activity
is spiritualism in substance! 75SPIRITUALISM AND ACTIVITY
Wherever there is no spiritualism,
that is, where being is not made the basis,
yet there is vitality in action,
that does not establish anyone or make anyone

meaningful;
and in the same way,
where there is spiritualism
but no impulse to activity,
that does not make anyone blessed or delighted! 76
THE VISION OF BRAHMA*If you have not been able to know
by bringing into your own perceptionthe individual and the whole,then your vision of Brahma
is nothing more than a derangement of the brain! 77
*That which being developed and becoming everything, yet remains the same is Brahma.
Sri Sri Thakur: Satyanusaran, p. 97
YOGA
To be yoked or attached to somethingis called the yoga of that;
so the condition and results of the yoga
depend on the consequences inherent in its object! 78
YOGA AND ASCETICISM
When all of ones determinationhas been placed in something or someone,
that is, when all of his determination,
regulating his activity,makes the life and growth of something or someone
exuberant,he is a yogi, his is an ascetic! 79
THE SEER
One who, going through the passions,that is, knowing the passions,integrating and solving them
and making them meaningful in One,
has achieved the salvation of his mind,is a Seer;
hence it is written:The Seer is the seer of the mantra!** 80
**The literal meaning of mantra is that which rescues the mind.
REALITYTHE LIMITLESS WITHIN THE LIMITED
Whether you are a worshipper of God-with-formor a believer in the Formless,
if that God-with-form or Formless Oneis not revealed within your own perception

in knowledge and vision,that is, if the limited does not bloom in your vision
in a practical wayas the unlimited and boundless,
then meaningless grimacing imagination
will not release you at all! 81
GOD IN REALITY
Do not try to shape your Godin the imagination that he is unknowable
do not lay a path to eternal depression in futility!Where all or most of your passions become meaningful,
there engage your need, love, devotion and prema,your God will become real
in your perception thereand thus be manifested
as Arjuna found his God in Sri Krishna!
Fear not,delusion will not be able to lead you astray! 82
MEANINGFULNESS OF PREVIOUS PROPHETSExperience, vision, science and truth
become established in expansivenessin making the previous Prophets meaningful;
moreover, they do not insultmans accumulated knowledge,
bringing in meaninglessness and deteriorationby putting our the light
of those previous Ones! 83
DISREGARD AND INGRATITUDE TO PREVIOUS PROPHETSOne who wants to establish his own view or philosophy
by denying or slightingthe previous Seers, Prophets or Ideals,
who does not accept them with humilityor respectfully correct the deterioration
brought by ignorance into their utterancesin the passage of time,
who furthermore doe not make that correction a basisfor trying to let those sayings be easily understood,
uplifted and lucidby fulfilling and nurturing them
in a way that befits the time,who disparages them and makes them naught,
who thus is determined to make them utterly futile,do doubt such a one,
because true it isthe emergence of what the present Prophet is saying or doing

is based on the incontrovertible utterancesof the previous Ones;
so he who cuts himself offbecause of disregard and ingratitude to the previous Ones,
and is diligent for self-establishment,
by infusing that ingratitude and separationinto the followers of the present Prophet,
will bring degeneration into the nation and the culture
there is no doubt about it;that is why I say
do not waver in being cautious about this! 84
THE PREVIOUS PROPHET IN THE PRESENT PROPHETWhere the present Prophet,
establishing the previous Prophet,is inspired by his exaltation,
know surely
it was by that same inspirationthat the organization based on the previous one
came to be! 85
DHARMA AND ANTI-DHARMA
Dharma means that which lets life and growthembrace immortality
by binding them in unison and upholding themwith the inclination to life, glory and upliftment;
and that which harms life and growthand takes one on the path of contraction,
depression and downfall
and makes one touch deathmay be called anti-Dharma! 86
DHARMA WHICH IS DEVOID OF SERVICEYou are practicing Dharma,
yet it has not come to be your interestto serve your own life and growth
and the life and growth of your environment;rather, an attitude toward them
of mean-mindedness, neglect, hatred and the likehas come in and made you narrower;
know for sure,you have not at all invoked Dharma;
you have been worshipping narrowness, ego and hatred,and in return you are getting the same! 87

JAAJAN* NORMAL IN ADHERENCE TO THE IDEAL
You have adhered to the Ideal,yet the emotion of that adherence
which is flowing within youis not nourishing the environment with the Ideal
and making it pleased with him,not is it issuing out into the environment
or flooding itin its urge and maddening zeal
to impart and establish him;know that your adherence to your Ideal
is only a show, nothing more! 88
*Jaajan: infusing the Ideal into the environment
ALL PASSIONS ENGAGED FOR ESTABLISHING THE IDEALIdeal is your father,
Ideal is your maintainer,Ideal is your creator,Ideal is your guide,
Ideal is your most beloved!
Oh you, the wise! Be for the Ideal in all respects,and let your sole and steady effort be
to establish him in all respects in your worldand to become aglow with meaningfulness
so that you can embrace immortality;however many good and bad passions you may have,
let your Ideal thoroughly pervade all of them;let not immortality, upliftment and life
be insulted in injuryby turning yourself away from him,
becoming mad for lust and wealth,and surrendering yourself to them,
stay alert! 89
THE TRAP OF SYMPATHYDo not become loveless toward your Ideal
or void of diligence for himunder the sway of anyones service and sympathy;
a person ascends to success repeatedlyby surmounting the difficulties and troubles
that are created in the awakening of lovefor the Ideal
and in the effort to fulfill his desires;and uncalled-for service, cordiality and sympathy
infatuate a person and make him tremble with greed,knock him away from the Ideal,

and thus throw him from success into annihilation;always stay away from this kind of ignorance
the greedy eyes of depressionwill not paralyze you! 90
ACTIVITY UNDESIRABLE TO THE IDEAL
If one does deeds tainted by meanness,undesired by the Superior, Lord or Ideal,
the courage to come into his contact is weakened;but if there is normal and sincere attachment
then such pain and repentance surge upbecause of the obstruction to communion
that one dismisses all weakness in a momentin anxious effort bathed in sorrow;
in intense attractionone cannot remain without embracing him;
but be careful
ingratitude and greed for lustgradually humiliate and distress that sensationand thus carry one into stupefying darkness;
if this kind of thing happens, turn back at onceeven though there is trouble,
you can find the path! 91
SUCCESS (SIDDHI) THROUGH ALL-ENCOMPASSING INTEREST
IN FOLLOWING THE IDEALYou may perform thousands of acts of worship,
practice the repetition of the Holy Namethousands of times,
and meditate thousands of times,but as long as you cannot become attached to your
Desired One or Idealin such a way that he comes to be your interest
in all respects,that worship, repetition of Name and meditation
cannot be installed in your life, glory and growthso as to completely fulfill your necessities
and direct your character in actuality. 92
SUCCESS (SIDDHI) FROM JAPA (REPETITION OF THE HOLY NAME)He out of whom your Japa is produced
is the objective of your Japa;and if this objective is ignored,
then the mental exercisewhich is to create an enkindlement in you
instead calls in deterioration,not becoming coherent through centering on some objective;
but if that mental exercise or churning

achieves coherence with the one who is your objectiveand is set in him,
then, by illuminating nature with normal perception,feeling and wisdom,
it makes the character overflowing
and thus expansive;that is why
success comes from japa, success comes from japa,
success comes from japa;and there is no doubt about it! 93
THE SIGNIFICANCE OF JAPA
The significance of repetition of the Holy Namelies in mentally churning over the subject of repetition
and whatever concerns thatand awakening perception with thought and pursuit;
so if you have not adjusted your repetition of the Holy Name
in this way,how much can it do anything for you? 94
MEDITATIONMeditation is nothing else than
the way in which a person, by thinking of his Beloved,becomes awakened and ecstatic,
that is, to feel the one who is the object of meditation,to think about him and talk things over in the mind about him,
as he is seen,with whatever there is in him,
and whatever constitutes him,
and with his doings and speaking, moods and gestures,and thus arrive at perception, meaningfulness,
and the means of accomplishment,
and to be awakened, overflowing, and whole-heartedlydedicated to him,
and thus to become extremely eager and indomitablein making him successful!
Again, uninterrupted ness in this kind of feeling, thinkingand doing
for anyonemakes Him beloved to the one who so thinks of Him,
and when by doing in this waythe object of meditation or the Belovedbecomes the one and only within youor eternally emancipated within you,
then you also, becoming solely in Himor eternally emancipated in Him
will be wholly absorbed,

and this condition of absorptionwill invite Samadhi*;
again, through thisnormal perception will flourish in the brain
and normal feeling will flourish in the mind! 95
*Samadhi: complete absorption of the mind in conceiving something thoroughly.
LACK OF UNDERSTANDING THROUGH NEGLIGENCE
Negligence shoves asidethe understandings load of understanding! 96
ENVIRONMENT AND LIFE AND GROWTH IN DHARMAYou are righteous (Dharmik)!
You are always worshipping the Lord,and occupied with offering, meditation at twilight,
and daily prayers;yet service, wealth, resources, life, glory, growth,
satisfaction, nourishment and the likeare not offering you ovations,
nor is your environment becoming prosperousby getting these things from you;
do understand,in your ostentation of Dharma
you have not invited existence and growth;so both you and your environment
are being deprived of Dharma! 97
SUCCESSFUL LIVING
Do try to keep your existence normal and unfluctuatingin such a way that you can make your living unobstructed
by taking from nature and the environment
only the ingredients that are for existence;but if anyone, vanquished in the anxiety of life,
comes to you asking for help,then as far as possible make him healthy and strong,
giving him more than he needs,so that you come to be the means to
what is desirable and what is goodfor his life and his needs;
see,
how your life mounts in success so very greatly,and sends illumination to the horizon
in the expression of its resounding glory! 98

MATINS*, VESPERS** AND PRAYERS
Do not leave off doing matins, vespers and prayers;and the more you can perform them
with sweetness of feeling, with understanding,and with eager urge,
the more they will brighten and purify your mind,and thus uplift your health and your character;
as a result,service, resources, behavior and skill in work
will be fertilizedand thus make you joyous,
there is no doubt! 99
*Matins: morning prayer (both words originate from the monastic Catholic tradition)**Vespers: evening prayer
WEALTH, ENJOYMENT AND LIBERATION FOLLOW DHARMAWhenever you embrace Dharma practically
with service,life, wealth, enjoyment and liberation
will definitely serve you;and whenever you become attracted to their service
and thus incline toward them,know for certain that they will flee away,
dashing you down sothat it will be extremely hard labor for you
to invite the strength to rise again;take these things and engage them
in the service of the environment,
you will achieve good! 100
PERSONAL PROSPERITY IN THE ENVIRONMENTS PROSPERITY
The chief indication of life is consciousness,and this consciousness comes into being
from the impact of environing life;and out of that comes the upward movement
of the mind of integrated passions;again, this mind,
by considering the favorable and the adverse,directs a person;
so if you really desire to benefit
your progress, your mind and your life,then through your service make your environment such
that those who compose it
become healthy and strongand thus abundant in life and delight! 101

As a daily observancesee to your environment, individual and collective,
each and every day,with thought, talk and conversation;
and every day do as much as you are ableto fulfill their necessities,
seethe goddess of prosperitywill stand firm with you! 102
MEANINGFUL SERVICE
Know for surea person is more benefited if one fulfils his requirements
by serving and caring for his afflicted mindthrough remedy, encouragement, help,
sympathy and the like,than by attending to his physical needs,
disregarding his mind;when you go to serve someone,
first observe his mental conditionto discover his requirements,
and expanding yourself according to the formof those needs,
make arrangements for them,so that he can become healthy and prosperous,
and thus engage your feelings, words, behavior, resourcesand capability
in service as far as possible;
seeyour service will exult in fruitfulnessand be crowned with success! 103
SADHUTHE ACCOMPLISHED ONE
One who implants the clues to success in his characterand is regulating his life according to that
may be called a Sadhu (accomplished one)in the true sense! 104

AND MAKE THEM BENEFICIAL

That is why you have not been made anxiousby the concern or necessity to render beneficial
your own and your environments life, glory,
nourishment, pleasure and expansionas well as his
by nurturing and satisfying his welfare
and your environment with him in it;this being the case,
what can this form of Japa and worshipdo for you? 105

CHARACTER AND YOGIC ENDOWMENTS IN SADHANA
(SPIRITUAL EFFORT)In the practice of spiritual endeavor
the yogic endowmentslike sound, light, divine messages and so on
which arise through continuous effortand profound attention,
indicate the transformationof the state of your brain;
they may not touch your real being and character;but what happens through unbroken attachment
of devotion and love for the Ideal,or yogic practices which include this devotion and love,
attracts the being and character
and so directs the person upward in progress,this is definitely certain! 106
THE END OF WEAKNESSWhen your devotion, incessantly bearing
the urge to be meaningful in your Idealin all respects,
is converted into proficiency in activity,from then is the beginning
of the end of your weakness! 107
THIS LIFE DETERMINES THE LIFE IN THE OTHER WORLD

PEACE IN IDEAL-CENTEREDNESS
When everything you haveis based on your Ideal,
then and there peace will become unshakeableand will uphold and preserve you! 110
YOUR OWN IDEAL AND ANOTHERS IDEAL
Do not seek to establish your own Idealby slighting anothers Ideal;
but rather acknowledge himand respectfully demonstrate the agreement
of your own Ideal,you will find that all are becoming yours! 111
JAAJAN, THE TEST OF DOUBT AND DEVOTION
If your prema*, devotion or lovegrowing profuse in its feeling for the Beloved
does not become resonant in Jaajan,consider where and in what corner
doubt is hiding and peering out like a thief;be careful
seek it out and become void of doubt,your environment will surely be flooded
in the flood of your devotion! 112
*Prema: The supreme form of love for the Divine.**Jaajan: Exalting and uplifting the environment with pious worship of the Ideal.
GENUINE LOVE
Another characteristic sign of genuine love is thisthe beloveds offense
can never cause a deficiency in the attraction
by bringing on ill-will, distress
or vexation! 113
FIRMNESS IN CONFLICTS ADVERSE TO LOVE
If feeling, devotion and love are not indomitablein conflicts adverse to them,
then it is dubiouswhether they were there in the first place! 114

COURAGE ESTABLISHING WELL-BEING AND PROGRESS
If couragewith steady perception
spurns, resists and destroyswhat is opposed to life and growth,
and thus is naturally efficientin establishing progress along with well-being
for self, environment and the world,it may be called true courage! 115
HESITATION IN DOUBT
Where doubt is smiling,hesitation is normal! 116
VALOR IN IDEAL-CENTEREDNESS
As much as your life becomes whole-heartedly dedicatedto the Ideal,
so much will strength, courage and valoroffer you ovation! 117
THE HERO
One for whom enthusiastic uphill effort is normal,through whose courage, skill and efficiency
chaos and error are convertedinto order and rightness,
who diminishes and destroys that which witherslife, glory and growth,
and thus establishes becoming,he alone is a hero! 118
SELF-ESTABLISHMENT THROUGH ESTABLISHING OTHERS
Rememberto establish others life, glory and growth
is the only way of achievingyour own life, glory, growth and establishment,
but actually doing that,not only thinking about it, talking about it,
and wanting it!If there is an error in this,
all your efforts, all your wishes, all your workswill end in error! 119
? WHY THE ENVIRONMENT SEEMS UNSUITABLE
Whenever one thinks that his environmentis not suitable for him,
it is sure that his service and resourcesare not so great, or not so well-adjusted,
as to make the environments life and growth

STRONG WEAKNESS
As for the strong one who can make the weak weakerthe greater his weakness of strength,
the more he makes weakness strong! 121
GENUINE AND FOOLISH HUMILITY
Foolish humility makes man base;genuine humility exists
where, keeping ones nature and honor unharmed,
it establishes truth;and the meaning of truth is
that which makes mans life and growthexuberant in well-being! 122
THE FLY-LIKE MAN
Be careful of the fly-like man!However good the things you do may be,however good the things you say may be,
discarding every bit of it,
and taking just what is necessaryto make the bad thrive,
he spoils others in the environment;the remedy for this
if such a thing has happenedis to be cautious and confront him,or to tactfully persuade him! 123
THE BEE-LIKE MANAnother kind of man is the bee-like man;
there is no great excess of them in the world;their nature is such that however ugly anything may be,
they rightly understand how much of it,or what portion of it,
is sweet like honey,and in collecting that they are second to none;
even if you get stung, seek them out;if you find any,
you will get such nourishment from them
as to fill your life and mindwith honey-sweetness;
if you desire it, be on the lookout! 124

UNMANLINESS IN MANS OFFERING HIMSELF TO WOMAN
Whenever unmanliness becomes the boon companion
of a man,only then can a man implore a woman
or offer himself to a woman;on the other hand,
it is for woman to offer herself to a man,
and this is the distinctive characteristicof woman! 126
BROTHERHOOD THAT DISREGARDS THE SUPERIORBe careful of the feeling of brotherhood
which does not know how to look up to the superior,and moreover, neglecting the superior,
itself wants to be looked up to,it is the progenitor of baseness! 127
THE MESSENGER OF DEATH
One who asks for morewithout suitably nourishing that from which
he derives nourishmentis the messenger of death!
Be careful of him on both accounts! 128
EGOISTIC SLIGHTING MAKES ONE KING FOR A DAYWhenever your capability, efficiency or skillfulness
want to establish themselvesby humiliating, denying and slighting
anothers capability, efficiencyor skillfulness,
that is when you are being boastful and egoistic;
and the more you act in this manner,the more your ability will make youking for a day,
and have you ride around the streetson a donkey!*
*This refers to the Hindu Holy custom of dressing someoneas king to serve as center of pranks while riding a donkey. 129

THE EMPEROR OF MANS LIFE
When the small or lowly come to you,let them not feel at all that they are small or lowly;
rather, through your association and helplet them see before them the wide royal road
which leads a person easily to greatness and wisdomif he takes to it and travels on it,
and let this be natural to you!You will find that you turn out to be
an emperor in peoples lives! 130
THE AROUSING OF SYMPATHYIf the hunger to stay alive and achieve growth
did not make man restlessly eager,then it is doubtful whether anyone
would be helpful to anyone at the time of need;if someone comes to you,
do not depress his living and growingby talking of sorrows;
rather, do and say what will inspire and uplift him;you will find that constant talk of sorrows
will not arouse anyones sympathy;mans spontaneous sympathy will greet you;
people will be unwilling to bear that you should haveeven a little sorrow,
and become whole-heartedly eager to allay it! 131
HUMILIATING THE WRONG-DOERDo spurn sin or wrong-doing,
but do not hate the sinner or wrong-doer;if you do so, you will see
as you have hated,as you have humiliated the wrong-doer,the hating and humiliating will take form,
and expose and catch hold of you in the same way,
and insult, ridicule, and oppress youand make you hated;
be especially careful about your thoughtsand behavior! 132
THE STEALER OF FAULT-FINDING EYEGLASSES
One who knows how to see people as bad,seldom comes in contact with
the thief who stealsthe eyeglasses used for fault-finding! 133

INJURY BY HATRED
If ever out of hatred for someoneyou have caused some kind of injury,
at once free him from itthrough service, sympathy and attention,
and thus establish him in well-being;otherwise that causing of injury because of hatred
will so injure you and your worldthat though you cry shame on fate hundreds of times,
you will not find the pathyou will see! 134
CLEANSING FAULTS WITH FAULTS
If one wants to clean up faultsby collecting faults,
and scrubbing faults with faults,no need to worry
his fault will be polished up very well;the misfortune of being deprived of fault
will not have to bear his company. 135
IN SUFFERING OR IN PEACEWhen suffering or peace
do not relieve or uplift peoples minds,then they attack the environment
like disease-bearing fliesand engender evil activities! 136
GREATNESS THROUGH PURSUIT OF DHARMA
Do understandwhoever has become great in any area
has pursued the Dharma of becoming soin that area,
and that is why he is great;and one who has not done so
has become greatonly in the expansion of remorse! 137
EVER-SICKLY GLORY
If ones sense of dignity is brittle,his glory is ever-sickly. 138
PROGRESS PURSUES ONE WHO ESTABLISHES THE IDEAL

progress with various kinds of presentations,

in order to offer itself to youknow it for certain! 139
TRUE HEROISMIN SUBDOING DIFFICULTIES
When you see that obstacles can no longerintimidate you,
rather you are able to straighten out obstacles in such a waythat they help you develop,
then only are you strong;when your understanding adorns your character in this way,
then only will nature give youa real heros reception! 140
INDOOR HEROISM
When ones heroism and ability
are vigorously expressed before womenfolk,when it comes to the field of practicalityin the outdoor world,
it is sure to fade away and languishin the hot rays of the sun! 141
INJURING THE IDEAL IN A POSE OF HUMILITY
If you neglect efficiency,and with a pretense of humility
entertain the feeling of being a servant,devotee or son,
the Ideal or Guide is actually established in lowness;
what truer means than this is therefor injuring him? 142
GRACETo receive Grace means that
the opportunity for doing or servingis unrestricted;
and if one gets that,the path to achievement
spontaneously becomes unrestricted! 143
HUSBAND AND WIFE ONLY FOR SEX
Mere lust can never make anyonea true husband or wife,and never could! 144

of your Ideal,and when they depress and injure
the life and growth of your environment! 145
THE WITCHY CALL OF LUSTFUL YEARNINGWhenever you find that you are falling away
from the company of the Superior, the Lord,or the Ideal,
and if you do go near themyou dont feel well,
and in spite of your intention,the pull of their association
does not attract you,know for sure
the witchy call of lustor vain imagining
is entrancing you like a fool
and arousing your passionate crave,enveloping the path of progressin the darkness of distraction,
and filling it with senseless cracked-brainemotion
through the futile arroganceof bewildering thought;
thus it is throttling your progresswith its filthy hands;
understand this for sure, be careful,and if you can,
be off from it! 146TO THINK OF MOTHER WHEN PULLED BY LUST
Look not in the least with lustful eyes,
nor be the least bit possessed by lustful feeling;even if you are not given to such evil deeds
in actuality,by going on in this way
this continuous lustfulness of yourswill weaken your go, character, conduct, behavior,
and attachment,because thoughts of lust can so master a persons being
that no other thought can drive them awayand incline your being toward itself;
so despite there being many possibilities and resourcesfor your progress,
you will not at all be able to catch holdof success or fruitfulness;
the remedy for this is

to remain at a distanceand to color and delight your feeling and sight
with thoughts of mother;be awareif this sort of thing is happening to you,
be careful at once! 147
THE WITCHCRAFT OF LUST
Whenever you see that scatterednesssuddenly comes into the path
of progress or upward go
and has obstructed continuityor is obstructing it,
generally you can understand without a doubtthat the reason it has happened or is happening
is the lustful inclination to women;generally it happens this way to men,
and the more of it there is,
the more imperious is the downward drag;but in the case of women,
it generally happens in the same form also,
as long as they are not in direct contactwith any superior,
and so are weighed down in the moatof imagination
with emotional effusiveness of thoughts;but when there is voluntary direct contact
(with a superior)an expansion of progress or gradual upward go
takes place,resembling that
of the one with whom there is contact;move on, understanding yourself well! 148
DEBASEMENT OF LINEAGE THROUGH LASCIVIOUSNESS
If you are not Ideal-centricbut lustfully centered on woman as sex-object,
you will find that your offspring very soonis deprived of your heredity
and reduced to brutishness;and the more given to base feelings you are,
the more this is so,because it is this sexual desire
which bends your existence downto make it sow the seeds of life;
if you want well-being for your children and yourself,then be careful even now! 149

THE WEAK-NERVED AND LUSTFUL ARE DISREGARDFUL
One characteristic signof the weakness of nerves and lustful craving,
which go along with the stale feelingsof those who are born out of meanness,
is that they cannot bow in reverence;and where there is no reverence,
wisdom there is heedless. 150
FOOLISHNESS IN GREED FOR ENJOYMENTGreed for enjoyment,
making one foolish in activity,deprives one of real enjoyment;
if you wantbe elevated, unfettered and dedicated to activity;
greeted by enjoyment, you will findthat you are ever delighted! 151
CHARACTERISTICS OF MAN AND WOMAN
Man is man because of his manly characteristics,and woman is woman because of her womanly characteristics;
when a man becomes infatuated with a womanand wholly given to a woman,
and wants to adorn himself with everything womanly,then the death of manliness in man
starts advancing gradually;maintaining unrestrained wild hopes and expectations,
tossing and turningin dense foolishness and darkness,
obliterating himself,the man is melted away in a slippery go;
again, when the woman does not foster the growth of man,when she neglects her own distinctive characteristics,
picks up the manner and gestures of man,and wants to make herself into a man,
then womanliness, converted to ghoulishness,reaches out its weak, lean, depressed,
intemperate armand becomes hideous in futility;
giggling in flaunt and hatred
with uncontrollable laughter,it ends up in endless misery! 152
DISTINCTIVE CHARACTERISTICS IN EDUCATIONThe kind of education
through which the distinctive characteristics of a personare augmented, elevated and nourished,
is irresistibly necessary for life;

so the system of education should be suchthat a person develops continuously in distinctive characteristics
and thus becomes progressive and unobstructed;that education, by fostering the growth of life and society,
can make one a traveler to immortality! 153
EDUCATION IGNORING DISTINCTIVENESS
To propose an educationwhich oversteps distinctive characteristics
and to castrate life
are the same thing! 154
DEVOTION TO IDEAL IN EDUCATIONThe first ingredient of education is the Ideal;
realization is there in the Ideal;and by regard, association, inquiry, service, behavior
and worship,
to take the light of the Ideals realizationfrom him,to realize it and reflect it in ones character
is real education! 155
EDUCATION WITHOUT PERCEPTIONThe very purpose of education
is to realize the knowledge or vision of anotherby bringing it into ones own perception;
and however excellent and immediate the realization is,the knowledge will be likewise;
if education does not enter into your perception,
then what are youbut an ox burdened with things remembered? 156
COLORING CHARACTER THROUGH IDEAL-CENTRIC EDUCATIONEducation that is inspired by envy, spite or inferiority
can touch life and character very little,although it may reign over
a disorderly and unruly assemblage of resources;but the education that begins
from an exuberance of devotion and lovefor the Lord, the Ideal, or the Beloved,
actually affects life and character
and thus colors ones very heredity! 157
PRACTICAL EDUCATION
If you want to be really educated,depend on practical doing,
and taking your stand on this doing,pursue theory;

you will find that you need not be foolishin your knowledge. 158
DEVOTION IN THE ACQUISITION OF KNOWLEDGE
And knowledge can be acquiredin various conditions and in various ways,
depending on place, time, person and temperament;but in all conditionsand within everyone
devotion must be there! 159
THE WAY TO MAKE OTHERS UNDERSTAND
Do not try to make one understandthrough what he doesnt know;
rather, making a way through what he knows,try to take him to what he doesnt know;
and in so doing
your success may touch even his character! 160INVENTION
Observe well the surroundings of the placewhere you are staying;
think and try to find outwhat things in it can fulfill the needs of people,
and how so;you will find that shortly
your minds inventive power or discovering powerwill be awakened! 161
BRIGHT RECOLLECTION
When two urges or necessitiesattack your mind jointly,
then both of them or one of themis drowned in the water of confusion;
then even by searching, it cannot be found;so if you want to keep your recollection bright,
allow urges or necessities to enter your mindone after another;if health is good,
recollection will remain bright! 162
EDUCATION IN THE HOUSEHOLDAs I think,to lead the society or race in the way of progress,
there is a necessity for a form of educationin which there can function easily and unobstructedly
in every householda laboratory, a cottage industry,

and a garden that can producethe vegetables needed daily;
and this education is for everyone,male or female,
in every family! 163
THE TEACHER
If there is anything responsiblefor peoples condition in life,it is the work of a teacher;
the character of the teacherthrough the students regard
affects him without his knowing itin such a way that his later life goes on
so directed by itthat he cant do anything about it;
if the teacher is not eagerly inclined to the Ideal,
if his character is not exuberantly active,adorned with feelings for the Ideal,
and if it does not open the door of the students wishes,
touch his heart,and thus make him free to progress,
that teaching is the great refuge of anti-Dharma;there isnt an iota of doubt about it;
if you want to teach,do carefully adjust yourself;
otherwise misery, with a crooked smile,will devour your life and your race,
no doubt. 164SCIENTIST AND RESEARCH
If you are not pursuing the Ideal,
research for you is nothing but an itch for conjuring;your incoherent knowledge can never come into order
with what comes before and what follows,and thus cannot arrive at any significance;
and repeated observation,taking you on an overgrown path in thinking and doing,
suddenly revealing the glow of a glowwormand making you lose your way,
can do nothing except to make you more foolish and vagrantas a scientist;
observe, and test thoroughly;so if research is really the aim of your life,
then pursue the kind of science that pursues meaningfulness,since throughout its sequence
it bears a single purpose and vision;

BRAHMACHARYYACONTINENCE
To move in the wayby which a human being becomes established in growth
and thus becomes radiant,to think, say and do
that by which one becomes animatedin vitality, expansion and growth,
and thus can become virile and strong,this may be called true Brahmacharyya*
or continence;and without doing this,
by only being concerned to control the semen**with extreme effort in thinking and doing,
one cannot become continent or self-restrained;
moreover, he will have to become hated and blamedon account of ugly frowning nervous debility;
but such questions cannot even arise
in the mind of one who is truly endowedwith Brahmacharyya
who is engaged in the thought and workof the Vast;
and as a result, it is easy and naturalfor him to be continent. 166
*Brahmacharyya: literally, conduct which is within Brahma. Brahmais defined by Sri Sri Thakur as That which being developed and becoming
everything, yet remains the same. (Satyanusaran, P. 97)**Semen: considered as a source of psychic energy.
THE CULTURING (SADHANA) OF LOVE
If you want to love anything or anyone,then love him, think of him only,
and engage yourself in activitythat accords with so doing;
furthermore, give no indulgence whatsoeverto whatever things are against it;
from this form of thought and conductyou will see
how your love rolls on like a flood,swift and overflowing with activity;
you will be satisfiedno doubt. 167

AROUSING THE WILL
If you want to keep your will-powerfit, strong and awakened,
do dedicate it daily to some activityfor accomplishing good for others;
see how quick, dexterous and life-enhancingyour will-power becomes! 168
AWAKENING OF WILL-POWER
Whenever the urge to do something goodcomes into your heart,
without obstructing it,do at once start to materialize it through activity;
you will find that by this practiceyour will-power will become lively
within a short time. 169
CONTROLLING BAD HABITSIf you want to give up at allany bad habit of yours,
or lust, anger or the like,
which tends to weaken and distress you,at the very moment when the urge for it
is about to engage you in activity,be off from it,
or at that moment, as you are being off from it,try to engage that urge
in thought and action that will bring youwell-being;
and continue to do soas long as that bad habit, lust, anger,
or whatever it isdoes not come under your complete control;
you will find,if your practice this for some time,
you can so control habits or passionsthat they will kneel down before you
like servantsand be charmed to obey you;
without doing this,
with the mere thought of giving them up,you will not at all be able to give them up;
rather you will become more obsessed by them! 170

He in whom you have placed everything of your whole lifefor as long as you live,
whom you know as the bearerof your life, expansion and growth,
who is absolute knowledge as known,only that or he is the place for your whole-hearted faith;
not being colored by any thing or any person,apart from him,

normal and beautiful. 173
