Do your duty but stay unattached

Give all your love but stay unattached,

For attachments only cause pain,

A pain that leaves your mind restless,

Leaving peace afar.

The nature of your life is transitory.

Never staying constant,

I am the cause of this change,

So that at every point

When you experience another phase of your life,

You grow unattached to the previous phase,

And only experience love for it.

No attachments! No worries!

Most of all when realization dawns

One thing becomes evident.

Only one thing stays changeless –

My presence, which is constant.

Everywhere, within and around you.

The body is a house taken on rent by man. We know how the owner of a house 
persecutes the tenant in order to compel him to vacate when the rent is not 
paid, delayed, or when the tenant causes damage through negligence. Therefore, 
it is our duty to keep the body in good shape and avoid the wrath of the owner. 
The owner will certainly appreciate a considerate, courteous, and cooperative 
tenant.  The tenant can win the owners love and respect by means of his own 
goodness.
