Nothing can be achieved without faith in God
Man does not use his sense organs in the right way. He has eyes, but does not see what is good. He has ears, but does not listen to what is good. There is only one way of correcting him. He has to be shown the spiritual path and helped to cultivate the virtues of Truth, Love and Selfsacrifice. He must be weaned away from selfish pursuits and from arrogance and pride. His mind, which is the real culprit, has to be cleansed of all evil. He believes in the false and unreal and does not relish Truth, Goodness and Beauty. He can acquire real peace and joy only when he turns his thoughts to God and away from the petty tinsel of the world. Without faith in God there is nothing that man can achieve, whatever his knowledge and wealth may be. Modern education does not teach a young man what is essential for making his life worthwhile and meaningful. His mind is loaded with a lot of useless information, but he knows little that is useful for daily living. Even in the spiritual field, there is a wide gap between verbal knowledge and real understanding of spiritual truth. People perform , and (repetition of sacred formula, meditation, and group singing of devotional songs), but there is no understanding of their inner purpose or what they are expected to achieve. All living beings have the (five basic elements) (five sheaths) the (five vital airs), and the (five sense organs) in common. What is the form of these five elements? What is the power that sustains the five (sheaths)? Man does not enquire into these matters. He lives continuously in these sheaths and functions through the sense organs but what is the purpose of this life? What is the significance of human birth? These questions do not bother him. He is content from morning till eve to acquire one thing or another and is concerned about "My house", "My car", "My clothes" and the like. In this pre-occupation with the "I" and "Mine", the basic truth about the Divine that is the real nature of the "I" is not remembered at all.
