He is not talking in parables, but there is a consistent energy signature underlying his words which tell the truth of his message. So those who are not living that level where the sustained energy, or darshan supporting his words is always obvious and available will be imprisoned in the surface level of his words. He doesn't mess around with this stuff. He is dharmically very much a kshatriya.:-)
