In English
We should not devote our life to fulfilling meaningless and sensory desires. Our sensory organs should become our slaves, but we should not become slaves to our sensory organs. The day we become slaves to our sensory organs, we will become slaves to the whole world. If we become slaves to our own sensory organs, what kind of strength can we claim? We should be masters to our servants, but should not become servants to our servants. Today, we should make an enquiry as to whether we are living in our house as a master or as a servant. The servant of the house can know and will be able to tell you where certain external things are present in the house. But the master of the house will know where the valuable things are kept in addition to knowing the articles of daily use. He knows where each of the valuable things is locked up. Today, we talk of many things which are external to ourselves but we are unable to take or recognise the valuable spirit that is present inside of our hearts. In that context, we are living like a servant of the house of the body rather than as a master of the body. If we are really the master of the house in which we are living, why is it that we are not aware of the good ideas and good thoughts that are present in us? God is not something present outside you. He is present inside you. Similarly sin is not something which is external to you. It is decided by your own action. The moment you realise these two truths, you will not be a servant to your sensory organs. They will be your servants.
