In plain words
So do not think of humanness as something trifling. To recognise the divinity of humanness and act on it is true life; He did not grant this body just so that, with hands and legs, with faces, with eyes, with ears, you might enjoy all the things of this world. ‘Śarīra mādyaṃ khaludharma sādhanam’: He gave the body so that we might foster Dharma, spread Dharma and experience Dharma. What is meant by this Dharma? That itself is the feeling of the mind, the resolve of the body, the form of speech. The form of body, mind and speech is itself true humanness. God is manifest in each and every body. We make no effort to recognise this state of things. God pervades everywhere. To build a small shrine for such an all-pervading God, to light a small lamp, to wave the ārati only as a kind of duty, offering food and water, to offer naivedya to God: man lives with a narrow idea of this kind.
When the whole cosmos lies within My belly, is it fitting to set food and dainties before Me? For Me, who moves in all living beings, is it possible to find a fitting name? For Me, who moves in all the waters, can you manage to give a bath? For Me, who has the splendour of a crore of suns, how can you set out an earthen lamp? Beyond the reach even of Aja, Hara and the rest, who is able to find this form of Mine? What more is there than this for Me to make known, O members of this assembly, counted among the good and virtuous!
