You can be sitting at the peak of the Himalayas,
And still have a very restless mind.
Leaving all, and dressing in an orange robe,
Does not make you a hermit.
A hermit is one that lives amongst the real world,
And is not affected by any of its adversities.
Do your duties, but do not be attached.
Enjoy your riches by learning to give and share.
Do not be addicted to them.
Learn to live with your physical ailments.
Ignore the pain of the body.
Concentrate on the ailments of your soul.
Do not be hindered by burdens and sufferings.
Know that they are only illusions,
To stray you from your spiritual needs.
Do not respond to the voices of your senses.
Look inward and hear My voice.
Listen to My call, and respond immediately!
