- notes
- synopsis
- Reader of the sutras: Sw Ananda Teertha.
- The sutra
- Silence cannot make a master out of a fool.
- But he who weighs only purity in his scales,
- Who seeks the nature of the two worlds,
- He is a master.
- He harms no living thing.
- And yet it is not good conduct
- That helps you upon the way,
- Nor ritual, nor book learning,
- Nor withdrawal into the self,
- Nor deep meditation.
- None of these confers mastery or joy.
- O seeker!
- Rely on nothing
- Until you want nothing.
