In plain words
In that state of Ajñāna it is the mother who shows us the father. This father brings us up and, so that we may be educated, shows us a true preceptor. That preceptor shows us God. The mother shows the father. The father shows the preceptor. The preceptor shows God. In the same way, the teaching of Vedānta is that Mukti comes to us through these four: Bhakti, Jñāna, Vairāgya and Tattva. These four are the steps to what is called Mukti. Bhakti: this Bhakti grows step by step and takes the form of Jñāna. This Jñāna gives Vairāgya. This Vairāgya reveals the Tattva. Through this Tattva, Mukti comes to us. For this the Bhāgavatam has been taken as the great example. The word Bhāgavatamu has five syllables. Bhā-ga-va-ta-mu. Bhā means Bhakti. Ga means Jñāna. Va means Vairāgya. Ta means Tattva. The form of these four is Mukti. That is why the word Bhāgavatam shows the inner meaning, “we shall become good.”
Wherever you look, it is God alone who is there
God is everywhere. Wherever you look, it is God alone who is there; and so Vedānta says: Sir, you keep longing, “I must see God, I must see God.” But is not all that you are seeing God Himself? All these forms are forms of God. But because man's vision goes outward, he cannot understand the Ātma-tattva that is turned within. This man is waging a struggle for Śānti. Though his Ānanda and his Śānti are within himself, man journeys outward, deluded like one who sees a mirage. Through ceaseless toil, through endless anxieties, through desires without end, man falls prey to unrest and collapses in mere despair and dejection. First of all, we must develop Śānti within ourselves. We must spread the Śānti of our own mind inside our home. From our home, we must try to share this Śānti in our village. In this way we must develop Śānti in the individual, and after that develop it in the family, and after that in society.
