What is the true role and proper use of the human body? Bhagawan clearly explains and guides us today.
The body has no power of discrimination or knowledge; Only the mind and intellect have discrimination (viveka), knowledge, and power. People today do not exercise fundamental discrimination. They have only selfishness, selfishness, and selfishness. They use their intelligence to obtain what is good for themselves alone, without giving attention to the good of society. In this way, they use the body in wrong ways. They do not use it to follow the path that leads to enlightenment. If you put wheat in the flour mill, you will get wheat flour. If you put rice, you will get rice flour. But if you put food in the body, only faecal matter comes out. If you keep pickle in a jar, it remains intact for one year. If you put pickle in the body, it will rot in a short time. The nature of the body is such. But the body is necessary for one to attain high ideals. So, in order to attain the goal of life, one should dedicate the body to God. One should put the body on the right path and shine as an exemplary human being.
- Divine Discourse, Apr 26, 1997
