Passage 8

In English

FACE - THE MIRROR OF THOUGHTS:

Man makes many an effort to cover up his flaws. The ostrich buries its beak in a heap of sand, deluded by the thought that it is invisible. But it succumbs to the bullet of a hunter eventually. Similarly, the evil man thinks mistakenly that his evil thoughts go unnoticed by others. The mind of man is like a gramophone plate. The good and evil thoughts of man are indelibly impressed on his mind and show themselves up. His thoughts and feelings are easily gauged by an onlooker. The face of an evil man looks dry and lifeless like an earthen pot. The face of a man is like a guidepost, revealing to us the direction in which his thoughts are travelling.
