Passage 22

In English

At dawn, they saw the rising of the sun but they were surprised that they had not reached ; they were in only. When they examined the cause, they found that in spite of rowing the whole night the boat had not moved at all as it was tied to a big pole. They realised that they had forgotten to untie the knot of the rope of the pole. This is the knot of attachment which prevented them from meeting . Man performs spiritual practices like and meditation and listens to Discourses. But what is the use unless he unties the knot of worldly attachments? Ego follows attachment and this leads to many bad qualities.
