The sandal of his feet removes sin when touching the body of another;
They are holy places of pilgrimage.
His words tranquillize the mind,
His kindness helps the acquisition of the Supreme
.BRAHMA.
Here then, the utility of besmearing one's body with the dust of his preceptor's feet is fully declared. They are compared to sandal paste, and holy places pilgrimage. Like a person visiting Benares, Brindabun, Jagganuath, Dwarka, Hurdwar etc., etc., the dust of his feet extinguishes sin, as mentioned by Bhagwan Sree Krishna in the Gita (Chapter XI) [a theosophist] "who is full of good quality (Satwa) should be served by attending to his 'eet, for he clears all impurities." His words produce tranquillity of mind, and his kind instructions pave the way to BRAHMA-the finality fall knowled As in the following text.
"One is freed without knowledge simply from his professor's kindness."
Company of the wise is like a sea of blissfulness; Emancipation is only Self-blissfulness.
The purport of his utterance is profound,
And capable of being grasped by a person of restrained mind.
Pupil. Companionship of the wise is a sea of felicity, the esoteric signification or purport of his utterances is its depth,. and one has restrained his mind dives into that sea to achieve mancipation by merging indissolubly into BRAHMA, to be one with It.
