In plain words
We must recognise such a sacred saying of the Veda and the teaching of the śāstras, and live by them. When a gramophone record sings a song, everyone listens and delights in it. But the gramophone record cannot taste the sweetness in that song in the least. Many sādhakas study the Vedas, recite them and teach them to others. But if they teach others without practising it themselves, the very result that comes to the gramophone record comes to them too. So first of all we must recognise the teachings of the Vedas and live by them.
Every point He taught, Śrī Kṛṣṇa first practised Himself, and so held out an ideal. God has no distinctions, no hatred; in His sight everyone is equal! Yet one thing He does keep watching: how far the pandits put into practice the things they have learned.
How far have those who did tapas and made pilgrimages experienced divinity? Many people do japa; they study the Vedas and śāstras. But what is the use? If one does not experience divinity, it all goes to waste. “Swami! Give us a rosary,” many people ask Me. Why a rosary? Is it to put it round your neck for all to see, and make a ‘show’? For a person who truly wants to do japa, one hand is enough. (Counting on each finger with the thumb of His right hand) Rām Rām Rām ... Rām Rām Rām.... Rām Rām Rām... Rām Rām Rām... These are twelve. Multiply these 12 by 9 and it makes 108. This very thing is the rosary. Now you need no other rosary. There is no need to choose any place specially. Even while walking along the road you can do japa; lying down, until sleep comes, you can do japa. When there are so many such sacred and easy ways, why should you give up sleep and food and choose hard sādhanas that are beyond you?!
