Sanskrit Original
“Sūkṣhma dehno kajiyo bahu bhāre chhe ne temāthī sthūḷ dehne dhakko lagāḍī de chhe, te kem karavu?” E prashnano uttar je, “E to moṭā moṭāne paṇ kajiyā chhe. Ne eṭalu maṭe tyāre to siddha thaī rahyā, pachhī shu karavānu rahyu? Eṭalu ja karavu chhe.”
“The dispute of the sukshma body1 (inner faculties) is extremely difficult and it affects the sthul body. What should one do?” Swami answered, “Even the great had such disputes. When [the disputes] subside, then one becomes achieved. What remains after that? That is all we need to do.” Footnotes: 1. 1. The dispute of the sukshma body result from the indriyas, mind, etc. They cause the waves of ego, anger, lust, jealousy, greed, etc. When the turmoil occurs internally, its effect can be seen physically in one’s actions and cause one to fall from their spiritual endeavor.
