In plain words
Bījaṃ Māṃ Sarvabhūtānāṃ
Aṇoraṇīyān mahato mahīyān, they said. When we plant a small seed in the earth, and give it the manure it needs and pour on it the water it needs, it grows into a big tree. This is what the Bhagavad Gītā called “bījaṃ māṃ sarvabhūtānāṃ”. This very seed takes shape as a big tree. On the tree many hundreds of fruits grow, but the hundreds upon hundreds of fruits spring from this one seed alone. And yet, this seed is in all the fruits. That very thing they set forth in the Bhagavad Gītā as a sacred ideal. God Himself is a seed. Prakṛti is a tree. The bodies themselves are the branches and twigs. The bodies, in their many kinds, in each country taking on its own culture, take shape as the fruits of that tree. Humanness itself is the fruit this tree bears; in every fruit the seed that was sown has come to dwell. Then that seed, it is said, says, ‘Mamaivāṃśo jīvaloke jīvabhūta ssanātanaḥ.’ “You think of yourselves as many fruits. You are not many fruits. My seed is in all of you. So what exists is One alone.” “Ekaṃ sat viprā bahudhā vadanti”: what exists is One alone; many call it by many forms.
Students! Girls! First of all, as soon as we are born, we recognise the mother; then, as we grow and grow, we recognise the father too. After knowing our parents we go to school and gain friends. It starts in friendship, and afterwards enmity also comes. Those called enemies and friends are not people who exist on their own. It is only a change in our own vision. If you call them friends, they take shape as friends. If you think of one as an enemy, he takes shape as an enemy. When you live with the feeling of God, all are forms of God.
Students, girls and boys, embodiments of Prema! From a young age develop samyak dṛṣṭi. Study what you have to study. There is nothing wrong in it. But this is a worldly life all the same.
