In English
Utilise the world as the means to an end
There can no 'This' without the 'That"; no creation without the Creator. You are now attempting to possess the Creation, with no faith in the Creator. You are not even aware of the Creator. The body has a head above and feet below. Though the body, with all its limbs, forms one organic unit, the feet are despised and the head honoured. Nevertheless, when we invite a person to our homes, we cannot welcome the head and dismiss the feet. So, too, since ',' the Cosmos is permeated with God, we cannot welcome one and dismiss the other. Man can earn wisdom only in and through the challenges the world offers and the opportunities for awareness that it confers. When once is attained, the world can be left to itself; one need not be involved in it or with it. It is like the daily newspaper. When it has been read once, only an insane person will start reading it again. Today's newspaper is tomorrow's waste paper. When one has experienced the world, it would be a sign of insanity to wish for experiencing it again. Man relishes consuming the same meal day after day, washing the face every morning, listening to the same story on every occasion; he does not advance towards the Joy that awaits him.
