"Aspirants for mental peace also have to reduce the luggage they have to care for; the more the luggage, the greater the bother.
Objective possessions and subjective desires both are handicaps in the race for realisation.
A house cluttered with lumber will be dark, dusty and without free movement of fresh air, it will be stuffy and suffocating.
The human body too is a house;
do not allow it to be cluttered with curious trinkets, trash and superfluous furnishings.
Let the breeze of holiness blow as it wills through it;
let not the darkness of blind ignorance desecrate it.
Life is a bridge over the sea of change;
pass over it but do not build a house on it."
