In plain words
If you take the medicine and keep to the regimen, it is like positive and negative coming together. The illness is cured.
The spiritual armour
Just as armour is essential for those who go to war, spiritual armour is essential for man, plunged in the battle of Prakṛti. Wear the spiritual armour, and it does not matter where you go. Wear the coat called ignorance, and wherever you go, fear keeps following you. As long as the husk is on the rice, we cannot eat it. Only after taking it off can we eat it. In the same way, as long as man has the coat called ignorance, there is no way for him to enjoy happiness. Whatever the situation one is in, one must feel that everything is happening only for one's own good, and try to achieve everything with forbearance. Only then does it become an offering to God. If you go on doing this, all the obstacles of the mind fall away. To nurture contrary feelings about God is not only a sin; it also becomes an obstacle to sādhana. As people develop spiritual feelings, they no longer look at the principle of Viṣṇu, or the principle of Īśvara, or divinity, with a narrow vision.
The beggar's warning!
In whatever country, in whatever situation, one must give up the feeling of difference that says 'oneself' and 'one's own people'. One must feel that everyone should be just as one is oneself. When he has no food, a man thinks how good it would be if someone gave him food. One must have the same feeling towards others who are suffering from hunger, and help them. When someone holds out his hand and asks, 'Bhikṣāṃ dehi', 'Hey! Be off!' you must not snap at him. The one who comes saying 'Dehi' is not a beggar. He is a messenger sent by God. 'When I had everything, I gave to no one, and so I have come to this state. If you do as I did, you too will be born a beggar': this is the message he gives. To one who opens his mouth and asks, one must give as much help as one can.
