In plain words
Embodiments of Prema!
Whether for the supreme goal, for curing the disease of worldly existence or for attaining Mokṣa, Bhakti alone is the chief path. Human life is very precious, and life-breath is more precious still. Yet man toils to fulfil his own wishes, not caring even for his life. He has made a great deal of progress in science and in worldly ways, but he makes no effort to go forward morally, in Dharma and spiritually. Forgetting God altogether, he believes that Nature itself is what matters most to him. Well then, does he at least follow the commands and ideals of this Nature? Not that either.
This Nature, without rest even for a moment and without any desires, carries out its own duty and teaches man, ‘Kartavyam yogam ucyate.’ Because the earth turns ceaselessly on itself, day and night come about; because it also goes round the sun, the seasons come about, and through them man is provided with food and drink. In this way Nature sustains and protects mankind and holds out a great ideal. What is the reason? This Nature is a limb of the Paramātma.
Head, ears, nose, mouth, legs and hands: all these have come into being as limbs of the body. This human body, made up of so many limbs, has come into being as a limb of society. For what? ‘Śarīram ādyaṃ khalu dharmasādhanam’: it has come into being as a limb of society in order to serve society. This society is a limb of humanness. What is this humanness? Humanness is that which is made up of values such as Satya, Dharma, Śānti and Prema. This humanness is a limb of Nature. Because this Nature is a limb of the Paramātma, it performs sacred actions. If man follows the principles and teachings of this Nature, there is no Mokṣa beyond that. But man today: what is his duty? What is his goal?
