In plain words
Only when we put this selfishness and self-interest far away will our country come right. We must develop the sense of the whole. We must develop the unity of the nation. Only when this unity comes will our economic state and our spiritual state be well balanced, in their right state. The whole of our life rests on a balance. To walk, we need balance. To sit, we need balance. To ride a bicycle, we need balance. To drive a car, we need balance. Life: this is a balance. Today this balance is lost. What is the reason? Cleverness beyond measure has grown. Knowledge has grown far too much. If this knowledge is to be put on the proper path, you must skill it. Only when you skill this knowledge will the balance be right. But unfortunately these young people kill knowledge. That is why the balance is lost. In what are they killing it? In our looking, all our knowledge is wasted. In our hearing too our knowledge is wasted. Through words too knowledge is wasted. Through your thoughts as well knowledge is wasted. A small example. There is a radio. On that radio we have put on a station. You can turn it up loud or turn it down low, the volume. There is no need to make any change in this volume. But if you switch it on and leave it, whether you listen or not, whether you set it loud or set it low, so many units of current are wasted. In the same way, our body is like a radio. We are thinking without a break. We talk. We talk loudly. A man talks to himself. We talk in our sleep. We talk until sleep comes. Whenever you look, from the time we rise at dawn, our talk inside us goes on and on. How much energy we waste through it! Only because this energy is wasted does life turn into allergy. So we must make the effort to put the energy in this body to good use. Only then will we have a fine balance as well.
Students! Only when the body is healthy, sturdy and content can we enjoy our balance in its right state. You need not worry at all about what is past.
