In plain words
How are we to turn this into the unlimited? We must see the limited and the unlimited without separating the two. This is what they called ‘unity in diversity’. We must see the oneness that lies in the many. How can we see the oneness that lies in the many? All these bodies appear as many. Sounds are heard as different from one another. Experiences differ. But in all this there is a oneness. In every body, the five, sound, touch, form, taste and smell, are the same! In man's body the power of Prakṛti is strong. The human body is not merely a form made of clay. In it there is also a prāṇa made of consciousness. The Vedāntins called it ‘a doll of clay’. Because the sense of Prakṛti is strong in this body, it cannot easily reach a high state. To take it to a high state, the power of a mantra or the power of a yantra is essential. The quality of earth is strong in our body. Even when we rise spiritually, this quality of earth keeps pulling us down. That is why man cannot rise to a high state.
If we take the oneness in the many as our basis, all men are one in daily life!
How can we recognise the divinity that is in man? The elements in all living beings are the same! ‘Ātmānāṃ rathinaṃ viddhi, śarīraṃ rathamevaca.’ This body is the chariot. It is the same for everyone! The one who rides in it is one and the same. Birth and death are the same for all! Hunger and thirst are the same for all! A poor man may drink thin gruel to still his hunger. A ‘rich man’ may eat a satisfying meal of the five kinds of delicacies and sweet rice. The meals differ; the hunger is one! The millionaire does not simply drop from the sky. The poor man does not spring up from the ground. Both are born from a mother's womb. So all these are the same.
