In English
Man is endowed with knowledge, skill, balance and insight, but the balance of man is upset today. The cause can be traced to the fact that man is today killing knowledge instead of ‘skilling’ it. As soon as the balance is lost, man’s insight suffers a setback and it develops only ‘outlooks.’ Man should not allow himself to be swayed away by the externalities, ignoring the inner realities. He must know for certain that he is neither the body nor the senses nor even the mind. When you say, “It is my body, my mind, my senses” it shows that you are not the body, the mind and the senses. You are in fact the ‘I.’ It is the sense of attachment which causes pain and sorrow, agony and agitation. You are so much attached to things that you lodge a complaint in the court of law against the man who has pasted a poster on your house. It is your attachment to your house which makes you to go to that extent, but once you sell away your house, you remain unconcerned even when a bomb is dropped on it. It is this feeling of attachment which is the cause for your concern and indifference.
