There is no dearth of good books,
telling you how to live happily
and be free from grief,
and many thousand copies
of them are being purchased.
Yet there is nothing
to indicate that the content
in the books have been read and assimilated.
The habits, conduct, and character
of the readers of these books have
not undergone any change for good.
Egoism and greed are still rampant;
hatred has not abated and envy eats
into the vitals of the society.
Henceforth, do not treat
God's words lightly.
Decide to implement in your life,
at least one advice for your spiritual growth.
Every one of you must examine
your mental make-up and see whether
you have used your discrimination and scientific temper
to clothe yourself with detachment,
so that you do not suffer from
the attachment to the worldly objects.
