Passage 6

In English

THE SECRET OF LIFE:

The secret of life lies in the harmonious suffusion of ‘’ and ‘’ (the perishable and imperishable). Whereas the body is ‘’ (perishable), the ‘’ is ‘’ (imperishable). This proves beyond doubt that life is marked by the existence of the perishable body and the imperishable self. The imperishable self is enveloped by the perishable body. These two exist together intertwined and interconnected. Life is a harmonious blend of ‘’ as well as ‘.’ It is a mistake to think that ‘’ is inert. On the other hand ‘’ pulsates with ‘.’ It is the union of these two that contributes to the oneness of humanity. For example, the matchstick which I hold in My hand, is not aflame ( creates a matchbox on the stage and pulls out a matchstick from the matchbox and holds it in His hand); Once the matchstick is aflame, it can burn anything that comes in contact with it.
