In plain words
Today, because this pāramārthika is not there as the support in the world, however … you look, whether among the learned, among those in authority, or in any other field …, only unrest and discontent dance wildly. If we think we can nourish humanness in daily life through books alone, man's …, the books in the world lie in heaps …. Teachers too there are in plenty. Seats of learning have been … by the thousand. A little can be seen to show that Jñāna is being taught, but the belch of one who has drunk this … is seen nowhere. Why should such a feeling come to people … who have truly drunk the nectar of Jñāna itself? The teachings are the nectar of Jñāna, but the practice is …. However many moral teachings we give the children, they do not touch the children's …. What is the reason? We are not examples.

Children are very intelligent. … too they try to recognise as artificial teaching. They understand that this is only …ficial knowledge. Through this very line of teachers and pupils … these educational institutions have sunk into this sorry state today. What good gurus taught … they learned. They learned what bad gurus and non-gurus taught. Today you … your pupils are learning. Your pupils in turn will go on teaching something else. If time passes in this way … in a line of teachings alone, when is the practice? It is because the tradition of guru … has come down the line in this way that the worth of education has declined. … all forms of learning have been turning into ignorance. You yourselves do not remember what you studied. You go on studying for the sake of … examinations. The moment those examinations are over, the matter is … and you are somewhere else. When you want to teach the children again, you start to take out the book and read ….
Teaching of this kind cannot nourish humanness at all. It cannot make it grow. … in this humanness we have no contentment in ourselves. In just this state without contentment, … grows. However great a guru we may be, the lack of practice … becomes itself the wrong we have done, and keeps frightening us. In what way … is the king of beasts.
