" I always begin My discourse with a sloka or a poem and conclude it with
a bhajan. Do you know what they are? The first poem or sloka is like a plate,
the discourse can be compared to the various delicious items that are served on
the plate, and the bhajan in the end is like a plate covering the delicious
items. Do not treat this as a Mandhu (medicine), thereby taking a little. Treat
this as a Vindhu (banquet) and partake of the delicious items that I serve to
the maximum extent. Experience and enjoy this banquet.
- From Swami's 1999 Dasara Discourses
