At a distance from a bazaar, one hears only a huge indistinct uproar. But when we approach it and walk into it, one can clearly distinguish the individual bargaining at each shop. So too, until the reality of the Paramatma (Divine Self) is known, you are overpowered and stunned by the uproar of the world. But once you enter deep into the realm of spiritual endeavour, everything becomes clear and you are awakened. Until this awakening, you will be caught up in the meaningless noise of argumentation, disputation and exhibitionist flamboyance.
