Two deceases in spirituality
Greedy selfishness is first decease, – egoistic jealousy is the second.
First is due to your family bonds, – second is towards co-human form.
First is cured by training yourself – in sacrificing practically in temples.
Of course, your sacrifice goes to priest, - let it be, do not worry on it.
You are learning practical sacrifice – coming out of your family circle.
Here the second decease is also – expected to get cure gradually,
Because you are serving statues – having human form only.
Your repulsion to human form – gets decreased slowly in doing
Service to the statues of human form, - when you are cured fully
From both the deceases, you are – now eligible for Jnana Yoga.
Rituals in temples purify your mind, – Shankara says this.
Jnana Yoga means identifying Satguru, - the human form of God.
Then, devotion to Him and then – service to Him gets eternal fruit.
If you are identifying the purpose – in your temple rituals,
You will reach the goal, one-day or other – tradition expects this.
But without knowing the purpose, - if you simply go on like bull,
Priests exploit you, – Veda says that such a fool is only
The animal-vehicle of angels, - the ignorance stamped by divinity.
Gita says that rituals must be done – after knowing their purpose.
