In plain words
One who has stilled the senses and the mind, even if he is blind, attains Mokṣa; one in whom the senses have no steadiness, even if he is the moon, gains no strength. Worship Govinda, worship Govinda, O deluded mind!
Students, embodiments of the sacred Ātma!
Although every thing in the world is the creation of God's saṅkalpa, there are some things we have to use with very great care. If we use those things knowing them, they not only bring us to the highest state but, through that, give us happiness and joy too. If we use some things without knowing them, they bring about dangers for us too. When we use things such as a knife, fire or electricity knowing them, we get from them not only the fitting result but happiness too. If we set about using them without understanding them, without grasping the way they are to be used, some danger and some harm too will come. In the same way, by recognising the nature of sound, touch, form, taste and smell, of the senses that are in man, and conducting ourselves accordingly, we can gain sacred Śānti and happiness. When we let them run riot without properly recognising their principles, it brings us not only dangers but sends our honour and good name up in flames. Among these senses, the sense of the tongue is the most important. Of them all, it in particular is proclaimed in the world as a power of special distinction. If we do not restrain the tongue, it turns our very life to waste.
