In plain words
To kill a miser in this world, do not beat him, do not curse him; ask him for money, and he dies on the spot.
Such a miser he was. What did Duryodhana, such a miser, achieve? What did Hiraṇyakaśipu, with such krodha, achieve? Rāvaṇa was indeed a great devotee. He was indeed rich in tapas; but through this kāma, what did he achieve? So kāma, krodha and lobha are the three deadliest enemies of the sādhaka. However many years you do sādhana, let anger come just once and everything is destroyed. We must keep these three under control.
We Must Trust the Heart
In the world there will be some ten wicked people. Among these ten wicked people, at least one will be a little good. Among these ten good people, at least one will be someone who loves God. Among these ten who love God, at least one will have the longing to attain God. Among these ten who long for God, at least one thinks that he must take God's command upon his head. They said, ‘He alone who takes God's command upon his head and lives by it is blessed.’ Without taking the command upon your head, what use is it to do any number of sādhanas? So first of all we must try to recognise the good path that lies within the wicked path. In every man there is a sacred goodness. But man does not regard this as goodness. He believes it to be against what he wants. For man today, only two things are greatly needed: comfort for the body and Śānti for the mind. What is the result that comes from these two? Trust your heart. Why do you trust this petty mind and this impermanent body? After you have trusted your heart, you may trust all these too, alongside it. However long it goes on, there must be still more happiness, still more happiness. I do not understand what this happiness means.
