May your mind be infused with one type of thought, may every action of yours be embellished by one-one thought, may your resolution be one. If you are isolated and work incessantly, your action shall result in another form of thought.

That is why we are encouraged to bring unison in words, deeds and thoughts. This only shall accrue in social development and national growth.

What is already controlled and restrained should not be suppressed, but what is not controlled and is vagrant needs to be brought under control.

A mind, and the senses, which are vagrant and instable, should be strictly brought under control.
