15th October, 1938

Talk 538.

`A' asked: What is the exact difference between worldly activity and dhyana [?]?
M.: There is no difference. It is like naming one and the same thing by two different words in two different languages. The crow has two eyes but only one iris which is rolled into either eye as it pleases. The trunk of an elephant is used for breathing and for drinking water. The snake sees and hears with the same organ.
