In plain words
As a reflection touches a mirror, as lotus leaves are not wetted by water, so sins do not cling to man, through his Bhakti.
Birth and death, the two, keep together as a pair, as in a cart that runs on two wheels; if one is gone, creation too comes apart: this too is the secret of creation upon this earth.
Students, embodiments of Prema!
Ekoʼhaṃ bahu syām. Through his noble resolve Prajāpati created the pairs called the root and the gross, the inert and the conscious, prāṇa and the living being, and through their union alone the world, the whole universe of the moving and the unmoving, came to be created. So yesterday he taught Kadambi, the grandson of the sage Katya, that the union of these two itself, the sun, which is prāṇa, and the moon, which is the living being, is the root cause of the whole universe of the moving and the unmoving. Kadambi listened well to the sage's word, recognised the secret of creation and filled his heart with Ānanda; while he stayed so, another disciple, Bhārgava, a man of the Vidarbha country, came in and bowed to the great sage Pippalāda: Swami! Birth and death are sorrows that never end. All the śāstras teach that those who are born cannot escape dying, and those who die cannot escape being born. When life passes in this way through birth and death, when is there an end to it? What is its support? This was the question he put to the great sage Pippalāda.
Child! God has neither beginning nor end. The whole universe of the moving and the unmoving is mere illusion. Though Satya is in the eternal, its form is something that becomes formless. All these are bound up with an end. Through the sun the years, the months, the nights and days are formed. All of them are parts of the measure of time. Their root is the motion of the sun itself, and all these parts carry the representation of Prajāpati. Time is the form of Prajāpati; this time has two ayanas, called uttarāyaṇa and dakṣiṇāyana.
