Passage 8

In English

The human being is an embodiment of the triune path to Divinity namely (action), (devotion) and (wisdom). It is the foremost duty of such a triune human being to sanctify his life by (action), cultivate calm serenity by (devotion) and reach the goal of (wisdom). The human body shall be engaged in performing sacred and service to the society. To dedicate one’s body to the service of fellow human beings is satkarma (good or beneficial activity) in the real sense. However, there will be several obstacles in this path. Jealous and intolerant people will be creating hurdles in the activity. Such people are to be called as “enemies of the beggars.” They are like the dogs sitting on a haystack. A dog will neither consume the hay nor will allow the cattle to eat it. We should therefore not succumb to such evil thoughts. The noble thoughts arising in our mind must be sublimated by dedicating our body to the service of the society, in keeping with the maxim "Paropakarartham idam sariram" (This human body is given to us for helping others).
