All five elements are present in the human form. From the Element of Space, emotions, prejudices, apprehensions, shyness and the like are born. The Element of Air within the body causes the reflexes and movements like walking, respiration, etc. Hunger, thirst, sleep and fear are aspects of Fire. Blood, mucus and saliva emanates from the Element of Water. Finally skin, muscles, veins, bones and nails are the aspects representing the Earth Element. When you internalise this truth, who can argue, “This is mine, that is yours”, “I am greater, you are inferior” and so on. Anyone who speaks thus is dull-headed, unable to appreciate and see the reality. If only they have a deeper understanding, they can comprehend the truth in creation. Never be bogged down by the prevailing times or circumstances. That will amount to leading a narrow life. Develop an expansive way of life and carefully tread the path, that is ever new, holy and eternal. - My Dear Students, Vol 2, Ch 16, Jul 23, 1989.
