In this modern age,
people have forgotten
human values and exhibit
animal qualities such as
lust, anger, greed and hatred.
One may study
all the scriptures,
perform all types of sacrifices,
go on extensive pilgrimages,
but it is not easy to
control the senses and the mind,
direct one's vision inward and
maintain equanimity.
In ancient times,
the sages and seers
maintained purity in thought,
truth in words and
righteousness in deeds.
Purity of heart and
selflessness are the
hallmarks of human life.
