First of all, attend to your household,Then pursue the

prudence of “Search for truthâ€,Don’t be Lazy in

this, O rationals..1

If you follow “Spiritual Search†by Ignoring

Household duties, You will be distressed and fatigued,

If you carry on Both simultaneously, Then you will be

really judicious discriminating...2

If spiritual search is carried on, by giving up

household activities, Then food will not be available

to eat, Then for such a wretched person, How

“supreme Truth(spirituality)“is possible....3

Doing only the “domestic affairs(prapanch)†by

giving up “search for truthâ€, Then you will suffer

pangs of death(yamayatana), At the end you will be

very much sad and sufferer....4

If one doesn’t attend the task assigned by the boss

And lazily and leisurely stayed at home The boss will

thrash and fire him And people will watch him...5

Thus lost his importance, became wicked peoples

subject of laughter, and suffered lot of agony by

himself...6

Same will be at the end of life, Therefore sing the

song (bhajan)of god ,Take the experience of “great

meaning of self(spirituality)†by (in cash

"rokda")actually taken.....7

Whoever is “Liberated “man in the midst of his

domestic life ,Know him, only to be joint (united)

with “the god†IHe always sees appropriate or

otherwise ,and ponders over his thought ...8

Whoever is alert in household, Know, him able to

succeed spiritually I whoever is irrational in

household duties know him useless for “search for

truthâ€.....9

Therefore with utmost alertness carry on “Material

and “spiritual†activities If this is not done one

has to suffer lot of miseries.....10
