In plain words
Hunger does not go. Neither strength nor contentment comes. If the food on the plate is to reach the stomach, the mouth and the hand must be put to work.
Only when we trust the Gītā as the road, think of God as the goal and make the journey, can we reach the goal
In the same way, only when our deeds, our feelings and our speech take one form will this Bhagavad Gītā be understood by us, in purity of thought, word and deed. God is a state. He is like a village. He is like a destination. If we are to reach that destination, we can reach it only by following the road called the Gītā. Only when we trust the Gītā as the road, think of God as the goal and make the journey along that road, that is, when we put it into practice, can we safely reach the place we must reach.
The words God spoke do not belong to one race, one religion, one caste or one class alone. These races and religions arose from the guṇas. The guṇas wear the form of delusion. So long as this delusion called the guṇas is in us, Brahman is not attained. God is beyond the guṇas, free of delusion, the One who roots out delusion. We must bring into our experience the practice that leads to such a God.
To try to gain through the guṇas the divinity that is beyond the guṇas can only be called delusion. Seekers are themselves of the nature of delusion; when we teach them delusion once more and make the delusion grow as delusion, it binds them. Our teaching and our preaching may please the people and give them joy. But they cannot lay hold of what is called the principle of the Ātma. In such conditions preaching must teach them what is truly good for them; it must not be of the kind that is merely pleasing.
