Similarly, this festival day, related to the killing of the demon, calls upon you to renounce the most harmful of vices Egotism, . means the assertion of I, 'I' as having power, authority, strength, and wealth; not the awareness of I as (which is ) or I as (which is Divinity), but the mistaken assertion, I am the Body. "Thou art That," "I am ." This truth has to be realised to become free from . 'Iam- the-Body' feeling often persists until death. So, it has to be overcome by continuous . The body is a vesture you have worn. One should not lament when it disintegrates after wear. Death is an inescapable fact of life. So, be warned. While life lasts, busy yourselves in activity: cross the lake while the boat is intact. Fill the reservoir when it rains, so that in times of drought, you can feed the fields. Do intense now, when you are young and strong so that you can be in peace and joy all your life. Many postpone spiritual exercises until old age, when they hope to retire from their professional activities. But, once you retire, every limb of yours will be too tired to work effectively. Make the most profitable use of this present period of your lives. Do not waste the hours in irrelevance and irreverence. Do not indulge in the condemnation of others or in selfcondemnation. These holy days have to be observed as days set apart for self-examination and self-improvement. On this day, people insist on wearing new clothes. Let your hearts too rejoice, clothed in fresh ideals and feelings and resolutions. Relish these sweets from this day on, and mould your lives into sweet songs of Love.
