by the functions of one’s mind, words and body.
Indeed, I consider this process — using one’s mind, words and bodily functions for realizing Me within all living beings — to be the best possible method of spiritual enlightenment.

Translation
I consider this process—using one’s mind, words and bodily functions for realizing me within all living beings—to be the easiest process of the jñānī to realize Brahman.
There is no other easy process for attaining Brahman for the jñānī.
Personal Guidance
Using mind, words, bodily functions for realizing the Lord within all beings is the best method of spiritual enlightenment. The triple use is the path.
Reflection Questions
- Which of these three — mind, words, body — is most under-employed in service?
- What concrete use could I begin?
