In plain words
Along which road should we drive this chariot to reach the right destination? If we do not come to know these things, then we end up wasting both the chariot and the sacred wealth of merit this chariot holds. So, first of all, we must purify the body well and make it a healthy body. This is exactly what they said: ‘Health is the supreme root of Dharma, artha, kāma and Mokṣa.’ Health is needed to achieve these, Dharma, artha, kāma and Mokṣa. So keeping this car called the body in proper condition and going on looking after its health properly: that is one. The second: if you ask for what purpose we must keep it so carefully, we must take the chariot as the support for the effort to realise for ourselves the true form of this world and one's own true form. We must bring this body into good deeds of service to others, into sacred good deeds, into the way of proclaiming Satya to the world in some measure, into works that proclaim all the sacred divine powers, the divinity that is equal in all. But when we drive this chariot for these works, we must go along a good, straight road; we must not drive over hills and hillocks and mounds, along a crooked road. We must not set about driving this car on such roads as bad qualities, bad thoughts, bad company and bad feelings. Looking after our chariot properly in such a sacred way, and since we have come into this world in this life, we must regard ourselves as a small part in this machine called the world and set about carrying out our duty. Keeping such Advaita as the goal, we must begin our inquiry within Dvaita. Only when we carry out the inquiry in Dvaita does Advaita become clearly visible to us. But at the very start we take a kind of support, build on it step by step, and when we have merged in our goal we can put the support away. When learning to swim, people hold on to some kind of support, tyres or a wooden float, and go into the water. But once you have learnt to swim, you push these aids aside.
