With compassion toward all beings, in whatever way possible, bow to the saints with your whole being. If you hold fast to the stiffness of book-learning, you will travel the road to Yama. A diamond, a touchstone, a magnet, and an ordinary stone are all different; similarly, not all people are equal to the saints. Streams and rivulets should be regarded with the same respect as the Ganga and the ocean; to think less of them is the lowest of views. Innumerable stars fill the sky, but they should not be measured against the sun and the moon. Says Tuka, without tenderness in the being, one is like a firangi blade: bright and hard, but it does not warm.
