How to understand the statement that 'Everything that appears outside is a replica of what is inside us'?

[Ms. Sridevi Dasari asked: Shri Datta Sharanam MamašŸ™. The great ones all say the same thing, "I am what I am in. In the outside world I see such people. In fact, everything that appears on the outside is a replica of what is inside us." I do not know how to understand this. Please explain this Swamiji šŸ™]

Swami Replied:- Inside means mind. Outside means speech and action. Generally, people speak and do whatever is in their mind. If somebody is telling that whatever he/she is inside, he/she will be outside also, you must doubt that person because such person is not so in true sense. Such person thinks one thing in the mind, speaks other thing in words and does totally different from these two things. If there is unity in these three phases, such a person is a good person. If there is no unity in these three phases, such person is a cheating sinner (Karmaį¹‡yekaį¹ƒ, vacasyekaį¹ƒ, manasyekaį¹ƒ mahātmanām, karmaį¹‡yanyat, vacasyanyat, manasyanyat durātmanām…). If anybody is specifically telling about the unity in these three phases, we have to doubt that person since he may be having an intention to mislead you from his/her plot of cheating.
