Interpretation
Among the many dichotomies designed in the Universe is His design of real purpose of existence of man
It is only when man is able to understand the Real Truth that he is able to decipher the true characteristics of The Force or The Creator…yet the means to achieve this objective is not only hard but confusing
Mankutimma, for man to come even close to deciphering the Creator, it is mandatory & yet elementary to control his mind & focus it in the right direction. The human mind is extremely sensitive & fragile; it needs to be treated with utmost care. Just like milk is handled with the right balance of heat to avoid it either from getting burnt or retain its rawness – similar care is to be taken with your mind. If you are able to crack this code of keeping your mind satisfied; yet not indulge it so much that it loses direction; you have reached an important milestone in the quest of your search & evolution.
