In plain words
Only when we have decided by …jñāna and are free of care do we enter the Ānandamaya Kośa … … from …nnamaya to Prāṇamaya, from Prāṇamaya to Manomaya, from Manomaya to …maya, and from Vijñānamaya to Ānandamaya. But unfortunately today man journeys only as far as Anna… … Prāṇamaya. Only some few go as far as …maya. They are in a state in which they cannot even … where Vijñānamaya and Ānandamaya are.

A few minutes ago you saw a drama. The whole world today is a sample coin of … harmony. Every one … I want Brahmajñāna, I want Brahmajñāna. But on one side wife and children, on the other wealth and grain: … forming bonds with these … …. Is Vairāgya of this kind, Brahmajñāna of this kind, so easily gained? Did you think that … … is this?

When I ask, 'You have come for …?', every one says, We came for Swami. If you have truly come for …, what are you doing that is dear to Swami? Which of Swami's aims are you … following? If you have truly come for Swami, why are you not doing the work? Saying is … doing is another. This is not good. My aim is to wish for your high state, to wish for the purity of the world …, to lay your faults open before you, and so to … you on the right path.
If you … recognise every small example you meet in true daily life, you yourselves will understand at what level you stand. A small example. A big farmer lived in a village …. The whole village honoured the farmer in many ways, … held him a great man, and took every piece of advice from him alone. He had two sons … …. After some time the farmer died. Since the farmer's elder son was the father's …, he went on passing … time at this level: giving the people sound advice to some extent, recognising the good and bad of … all their affairs, and asking after their welfare.
