In plain words
There are five kinds of qualities in us. Satya, Dharma, Śānti, Prema and Ahiṃsā: these are our qualities. What we truly have to practise is to conduct ourselves in a way fit for humanness, with morality and honesty. Humanness is not something that has come from somewhere else. It is in us, by nature.
Fear of sin, love of God, morality in society: these three alone are the marks of humanness
Through a coarseness that has no fear of sin, taking a road that has no love of God, humanness has sunk low in human beings: this is the upheaval in the peace of the world.
Fear of sin, love of God, morality in society: these three alone are humanness. The first is to fear sins: ‘I must not commit these sins,’ so one must step back. The second: one must step forward in the love of God. The third: we must uphold morality in society, in the community. If those three, fear of sin, love of God, morality in society, are there, there is no greater breadth of man than this, no greater progress of man than this. That is true humanness. How can it be that one bears the name of a human being and has no humanness? There is heat in fire. Heat has the quality of burning. If the heat is not there, if the power to burn is not there, how can it be fire? It becomes charcoal. Sugar has its quality, sweetness. If the sweetness is not there, it is not sugar. It becomes white sand. In the same way, only when these three qualities are in the one called a human being does he become a human being; otherwise he is no human being at all. Such a one is a human being in form only, not a human being in conduct. So, together with the human being in form, we must shape humanness in conduct too. This is true humanness.
