In plain words
I am a boy. This boyhood too came from the body; it did not come from anywhere else. Other than that, it has nothing of its own! So it is from the body that these castes and religions, feelings and varṇas have come to us. In truth the Ātma has no caste at all. There is one caste; it is human nature. It is divinity. It is Godhood.
Believing well in this divinity, whatever we do, we must do every action to please God, My golden ones. If you ask what pleases God, loving everyone with joy is what pleases Him. Everyone living happily is what pleases Him. What is chief in our culture of Bhārata, the Hindu tradition? What is it? May all the worlds be happy. The whole world must be happy. See, do not take it amiss. I have no party, nothing of the kind. We say Vishva Hindu Parishad. We say some other Parishad. Is God for the Hindus alone? Have those outside no God? Īśvara is in all beings. It did not say, ‘Īśvara is in Hindu beings’! So the people of all countries are human beings. Their forms, their colours, their dress may differ, but all are human beings, are they not? When hungry, everyone eats. When grief comes, everyone weeps. When anger comes, everyone gets angry. Human nature is there in everyone. We must experience this as equal. To regard all as equal is true Bhakti; if these bear some hatred towards those and those towards these, that is not right. These are narrow feelings. Broad feelings must come to us. See a small example. There is what they call a balloon. Children blow air into it. When we blow air in, it grows big. When it is tied, only the little air in the balloon stays in it, apart. But the vast air is spread everywhere. For the air in this balloon to become one with the air spread everywhere, what must be done? We must blow it up. If you keep blowing and blowing, all at once it bursts with a pop. It bursts, and the air inside becomes one with the vast air. Like the air in a balloon called ‘I and mine, I and mine’, let us blow it up. Blowing and blowing, when it has grown big, it joins that vastness. The narrow mind bursts with a pop. That is what is called breaking the knot of the heart. In that way we must become vast. In that vastness lies our true principle of the Ātma, My golden ones.
