You are born for a high destiny, as inheritor of a rich heritage. Do not fritter your days in low pursuits and vulgar vanities. Your destiny is to know the Truth, live in it and for it.

Suppose you write a letter, whatever the contents, if it is put into an envelope and posted, whom will it reach? No one. Well, will it come back at least to the person who wrote it? No. In the end, it will be neither here nor there. Instead, if on the cover the address of the person whom it should reach and the address of the person who wrote it are both written, one can even predict when the letter will reach its destination, is it not? So too, what do you do with your letter, your life? First, you must know your own full address! Who are you? The Atma. Whence did you come? From the Atma. Where are you going? To the Atma itself. How long can you be here? Until you merge with the Atma. Where are you now? In the unreal, the ever-changing. What are you engaged in? In evanescent tasks. In what form? As non-Self (An-atma). Therefore, what should you do? Give up these three and try the other three: try to enter the eternal, to engage in never-changing tasks, and to enjoy the bliss of the Atma.
