Passage 11

In English

If the inward sensory organs get the control over you, they become excited; and it will not be possible for you to control the outward working organs. The true , in this context, is the effort undertaken to control the inner sensory organs. If we make an effort to control directly the outer organs, this cannot be the correct and right way of doing it. We must try and understand the nature of the inner organs. If the inner organs are excited to a large extent, we develop defective vision, defective hearing and faulty thinking. When your thoughts are such that they are going to excite the inner sensations and your working organs, you must make an attempt to ask, whether the consequence is going to be for your good or for your bad. You should constantly introspect and ask if this act is worthy of being undertaken or not. Having obtained this sacred birth of a human being and having truth in you in the form of , you should conduct yourself in a manner consistent with your status as a human being.
