Distinction from God Necessary
॥
English Translation · I.P. 207
WHAT does the lotus flower know of its own perfumes? The bee enjoys it all. Thus thou knowest not thy own name, but we know* the happiness of love that proceeds from it. The mother cow cats grass, but the calf enjoys the sweet milk; he enjoys who produces not. Tuka says, The pearl lies in the shell, but the shell cannot see or enjoy it.
Tr. J. Nelson Fraser & K.B. Marathe (1909)
