Pillar 24 to 28
|
24. Birth and Death
So far as there is no integrity between the body, mind and soul,
no work is done properly.
This earth belongs to God. A prayer to God is the food
of soul.
When we are separate from our root, we die. The separation
of soul from body is not death.
Giving the whole will bring the whole.
Keeping the whole, the whole will be lost.
One who wants to serve God does not want a slavery of
anyone.
Birth and death are, perhaps, the two sides of the same
coin.Looking at one side, there is death and looking at the other one,
there is birth.
So why sorrow and why joy ?

25. Physical Labour
For one who wants to follow non-violence, to worship truth,
to make celibacy natural, physical labor is a panacea.
Those whose bodies are able to work and who have become
understanding should do their own work worth doing themselves.
One should not take others? service without any
reason.

26. Ahimsa ( Non-violence
)
For one who wants to follow non-violence, to worship truth,to
make celibacy natural, physical labor is a panacea.
Those whose bodies are able to work and who have become
understanding should do their own work worth doing themselves. One should
not take
others? service without any reason.
Abhaya ( Fearlessness )
No other asset is gained without fearlessness. The path
of God is that of the brave.
A fearless person does not take to a sword. The sword
is not a sign of the brave,
it is a sign of timidness.
The extent of fearlessness increases by resolve, constant
effort and a faith in soul.

27. Raam Naam
When God Himself says that He exists in all, with whom should
we keep Vengeance?
To save ourselves from the corrupted thought there is
only one, never-failing, panacea, and that is Ram Naam, not from the throat
but from
the heart.
The rule over oneself by oneself is Swarajya ( selfrule
) and this Swarajya is in our hands.
Religion is not seperate from life. Life itself is religion.
The life without religion is not human life, it is an animal life

28. Ashram Prayer - Raghupati
Raghava
Raghupati Raghava
Rajaram
Patit Pavan Sitaram
The truth is hidden under a golden plaque. Remove it
to have a glimpse of it. This whole world belongs to God. Enjoy by giving
up. Do not crave for
other's wealth.
I have no desire of a kingdom, nor do I want heaven or
salvation My only desire is to sacrifice myself for removing the miseries
of the
depressed.
Let us observe these eleven vows with humility but firmness;
Non-Violence ,Truth, Not to steal, celibacy, Non-hoarding, Physical labour,
Equality, Want
to taste, Fearlessness, Equality to all religions and the use of the things
of one's own origin.
