Chapter 16

Verse 8

 

Activity begets attachment; and abstention from it aversion.

The man of wisdom is free from the pairs of opposites, like a child, and

indeed he lives on like a child.

Writing commentary on such poetry is not a good idea..... but the above

verse reminds me of Sri Ramakrishna taking care to button up his shirt so

that he does not offend the Brahmosamaj visitors.........Absolute child-like

and charming was the life style of this son of mother divine...........
