In English
Man should cultivate equal-mindedness. But today he has filled his mind with too many desires because of which he is suffering. The natural colour of this kerchief is white. As you use it, it becomes dirty and stained. Its colour also changes because of the dirt accumulated on it. Similarly when a child is born, its heart will be pure, unsullied, as clear as crystal and as pure as glittering gold. But, when metals like silver, copper and brass are added to pure gold, it loses its lustre and value. It becomes impure. The true nature of man is immortal, eternal, peaceful and blissful. Such nature of a man gets polluted by worldly desires, by his activities and by his attachment to kith and kin. He himself is responsible for the erosion of values in his life. Today we don’t find any trace of human values in human beings. The human values do not come from outside. They cannot be acquired. They are already there in every person. Man is not able to recognise this. He speaks untruth, undertakes wrong activities, looks at forbidden things and entertains wrong thoughts. He has lost his purity. How can we call a person a human being if he lacks human values?
