The body that man bears is essentially a receptacle of God...

Why is man so pathetically afflicted
today with fear and anxiety? Are
we to search for the reasons outside us
or do they lie within us?

The reason lies in the false
emphasis we have laid on things of the
material world, ignoring matters of the spirit.

The body that man
bears is essentially a receptacle of God.

It is a temple where God is
installed, where God is the Master.

Hence, it does not behove you to
pander to its every whim. Instead,
realise it to be a very valuable
instrument in your journey to God.
