In plain words
He keeps putting far from himself the ties and bonds of kinship that belonged to this humanity. The heart of man is like an ocean of milk. It is the testimony of the Purāṇas that God reclines in just such an ocean of milk. The heart of man, which should be an ocean of milk, has today kept turning into an ocean of brine. Kṣīra means white. White means that the heart of man is one filled with sāttvic feelings. In this sāttvic heart dwell sacred qualities such as Śānti, Prema, forbearance and sympathy. In this ocean of milk live whales, crocodiles and many other kinds of cruel beasts besides. These crocodiles and whales are our own Ahaṅkāra and selfishness. Today this selfishness and Ahaṅkāra have grown beyond all bounds in man. There must be a limit to everything.
"There is no good without discipline": where there is no discipline at all, humanity is rooted out. The sun, the moon and the rest, the stars and the seasons have each kept certain limits set for themselves. Prakṛti itself keeps to a limit and moves according to the law of God.
Why does the sun, never failing his order, every day take on his rising and his setting? Why does the wind, finding not a moment's rest, blow on to keep the hosts of living beings? Why do the stars that adorn the sky with light hide themselves by day alone?
All of these keep following their own order. The beasts and birds too keep to their own order. They keep their own senses under their own control. But man, sacred as he is, cannot keep in order the divine human birth, the exalted human life, that he has. Beasts, birds and animals alone have no saṃskāra. It is saṃskāra that shows man the right road. What goes with man is not saṃsāra. It is saṃskāra. Today we keep losing that saṃskāra. All the animals that are born keep dying in the same state in which they were born. The tiger, the leopard and such beasts, born cruel, cannot give up their cruel nature, however many kinds of training are given them. But man is not like that. By some practices and … rules he can turn his bad qualities into good ones.
