Passage 29

In English

Our bodies are like vessels. Whatever changes the vessels may undergo, our source will never change. For example a silver plate, a silver tumbler and a silver box - the names and forms of these three articles are different. The ways in which they are made use of will also be different. But when any one of these three articles is melted, what remains is silver alone. In other words, in spite of the change in the names and forms of the articles, there is no change in the silver which is the common substratum of all of them. Similarly whatever names and forms we may assume, the common substratum of all these forms will continue to be the same which is changeless. Always remembering this fact is what is called "Spirituality."
