In plain words
Embodiments of Prema!
As long as a man has pride, no one will love him. In the end, not even his wife and children love him. The root cause of this love going far away is Ahaṅkāra. So a man who hopes that others will love him must first root out his own pride. As long as there is anger, that man cannot escape sorrow. On the day a man roots out his anger, on that very day happiness is his. As long as he has desires, he becomes nothing but a pauper. On the day he reduces his desires, then and there every kind of wealth comes to him. If man is to live happily, he must uproot greed. Only then does man enjoy a happy life.
Man is a pilgrim to the holy field of karma
Embodiments of Prema!
If one thing is to be joined to another, if one person is to join another, it is Prema that matters most. The whole world rests on Prema alone. There is no world without Prema. This Prema is the very form of God. The Paramātma, who is the embodiment of such Prema, dwells in the hearts of all as the embodiment of Prema itself. With this very thing in view: ‘Lokāssamastā sukhino bhavantu’. They have always offered the prayer that all should be happy. In ancient times the great sages made many sacrifices for the welfare of the world. For the peace of the world they gave up all they had. Because they gave themselves to such sacrifice, their fame spread across the world. The nature of the great sages of those days, and of the young, was sacrifice and yoga. But the life of today is pleasure and disease. Nor is it a matter of being content with these two. Nothing but crazy thoughts keep gathering. So they are turning into sick people, bound up with thoughts of pleasure.
Man is a pilgrim to the holy field of karma. When he goes to visit a holy place, a man takes money with him for some expenses. But once he reaches the holy place, he worries in all sorts of ways about keeping his money safe. At last, when he finds a trustworthy friend, he gives this money to him and visits the holy place at ease. Every man comes bringing with him, at his birth, the wealth called Prema. This Prema is not something to be had after one is born. Along with birth, Prema too is born. But in this body, the holy field of karma, it is very hard to keep this wealth called Prema safe. So every man must look for a friend who matters, a friend he can trust. That friend is God. When one wins such a true friend and places one's wealth of Prema in that friend's hands, it becomes possible to live in Śānti and happiness. In the world there is no teacher greater than the heart. The heart itself is the teacher. Time itself is the teacher. The world itself is one great book. God alone is the great friend. Believing in these four, man must try to live in every way in this field of karma. The fruit that grows on the tree of every human life is Prema. But if you want to eat that fruit of Prema, some obstacles come in the way. Before eating, you have to take off the skin on top of the fruit. Every fruit has a skin covering it. Only when we take off that skin can we drink the sweet juice in the fruit. This fruit of Prema is covered with a skin called Ahaṅkāra. Only when you take off that skin called Ahaṅkāra, and take out the seeds called the pride of ‘I’ and the attachment of ‘mine’, can you drink the sweet juice. God is the very embodiment of sweet essence.
Svārtha Prema, anyonya Prema, parārtha Prema
Prema's form is Brahman; Brahman is full of Prema; for Prema to join with Prema is the rule; so one who holds firmly to Prema becomes fit to attain the One without a second.
To attain oneness, this sacred principle of Prema alone is the royal road. Human life is a journey only to reach the town called the collective from the village called the individual.
