1. God has created man so that he might wield the talent of manliness and achieve victory. His purpose is not to make man a consumer of food, a burden upon earth, an animal that is slave to its senses. He does not aim at creating a horde of idlers and loungers, who shy at hard work, and accumulating fat, grow into monstrous shapes.

2. One should never give up his duties (Karma). At the same time one should desist from aspiring for the fruits of Karma. You have right only over your actions, not on its result. Good actions will yield good results. Our actions are responsible for all our sorrows adn difficulties.

3. Children today give up good old traditions forgetting the path given by our ancestors due to the effect of modern educations. They are therefore exposed to various kinds of unrest and mental agitation. They not only suffer from restlessness but also lack of contentment and satisfaction inlife, with the result that they are becoming mentally and physically sick.

4. Therefore always have good thoughts. A person who eats good food, drinks clean water and breathes unpolluted air will remain healthy. All that we consume must always be pure. We should take daily bath, eat good food and have sound sleep. We can then lead a happy, healthy and peaceful sleep.

5. Never think that someone is putting you to trouble. You should not blame others for your difficulties and problems as our actions are responsible for our state of mind. Develop strong faith in GOD; always feel He is with me and will protect me. The sorrows and difficulties are like passing clouds. Clouds cannot over-shadow the sun for ever; they are not permanent; they come and go.

6. When your mind is disturbed and wavering, you will experience sorrows and difficulties. When your mind is clear, firm and steady with complete faith in God, worries can not disturb you.
