- notes
- synopsis
- Reader of the sutras: Sw Ananda Teertha.
- The sutra
- Mistaking the false for the true
- And the true for the false,
- You overlook the heart
- And fill yourself with desire.
- See the false as false,
- The true as true.
- Look into your heart.
- Follow your nature.
- An unreflecting mind is a poor roof.
- Passion, like the rain, floods the house.
- But if the roof is strong, there is shelter.
- Whoever follows impure thoughts
- Suffers in this world and the next.
- In both worlds he suffers,
- And how greatly,
- When he sees the wrong he has done.
- But whoever follows the law
- Is joyful here and joyful there.
- In both worlds he rejoices,
- And how greatly,
- When he sees the good he has done.
- For great is the harvest in this world,
- And greater still in the next.
- However many holy words you read,
- However many you speak,
- What good will they do you
- If you do not act upon them?
- Are you a shepherd
- Who counts another man's sheep,
- Never sharing the way?
- Read as few words as you like
- And speak fewer.
- But act upon the law.
- Give up the old ways --
- Passion, enmity, folly.
- Know the truth and find peace.
- Share the way.
