Maharshi's Gospel - 2

[Guest guest]

D. A salt-doll diving into the sea will not be protected

by a waterproof coat. This world in which we have

to toil day in and day out is like the ocean.

M. Yes , the mind is the waterproof coat.

D. So , then , one may be engaged in work and , free

from desire , keep up one's solitude ? But life's duty

allow little time to sit in meditation or even to pray.

M. Yes , work performed with attachment is a shackle ,

whereas work performed with detachment does not

affect the doer . He is , even while working , in solitude.

To engage in your duty is the true namaskar...and

abiding in God is the only true asan.
