Vy three-fold salutation to the Higher Souls who drank deep of the spiritual nectar imperceptible to senses and overcame the poison of harma accumulating from tiine inmemorial.
,
Proficiency in scriptures is of no avail, eloquence proves harmful and physical sciences come to naught, if the spiritual ambrosia be not tasted.
indeed the sole object of knon:ledge, devotion, austerity and religious rites, is the . illumination of the soul by the removal of all the internal impurities with the help of deep concentration of mind.
. Meditation, silence, penances ard sacred
ceremonies, if not practised with a view to self--realization, vill not be productive of good result. Those ellorts are commendable, that are directed towards the at:ainment of} the goal.
