- notes
- synopsis
- Reader of the sutra: Sw Ananda Teertha.
- The sutra
- He doesn't know his own self:
- How should he know the self of another?
- He knows only his hands and feet,
- How should he know about God?
- This is beyond the sage's grasp:
- You must be a fool
- If you think that you know it.
- When you can expound on this,
- You will know the pure essence of faith;
- Till then,
- What have faith and you in common?
- It is better to be silent
- Than to talk nonsense
- Like one of the learned;
- Faith is not woven
- Into every garment.
- You were made for work:
- A robe of honor awaits you.
- How is it that you are satisfied
- With mere rags?
- How will you ever have riches
- If you are idle sixty days a month?
- Knowing what you know,
- Be serene also, like a mountain;
- And do not be distressed by misfortune.
- Knowledge without serenity
- Is an unlit candle;
- Together they are honey-comb;
- Honey without wax is a noble thing;
- Wax without honey is only fit for burning.
- Leave this abode
- Of birth and decay;
- Leave this pit,
- And make for your destined home.
- This heap of dust is a mirage,
- Where fire seems like water.
