YOUTH AND DIVINITY

1. The youth should always be young and energetic; they should not become prematurely old by misusing the power of their senses. We become old when we lose the power of our senses. We should preserve our energy.

2. The prinicple of love is the principle of divinity, nothing else. Accept that love which comes from God. Your love for God is true love. God is the embodiment of love. Love is God. Live in Love. You should experience Divine Love and not world love.

3. First and foremost, you must have faith. You can recognise your true form only when you have faith. From faith comes peace. Truth emerges from peace, this truth is God. God does not have any seperate form. God manifests from the truth within you. You undertake many spiritual practices; inspite of all practices you are unable to experience truth. You should understand that truth is your goal.

4. Today man is engaged in the pursuite of knowledge. Knowledge is as vast as ocean. Similarly, man makes efforts to develop common sense. His common sense touches the height of Himalayan mountain. Inspite of all his knowledge and common sense, man's discrimination power is zero. What is good and what is bad ? What should be done and what should not be done ? The value of humanness depends only discrimination power.

5. It is the duty of man to speak truth and lead his life with love, adhering to the canons of Dharma (Religion). A man without truth, righteousness, peace, kindness and love is like a living corpse. Man should consider these values as his very life principle. Never tell a lie even jokingly. Never make fun of anybod. Criticising others is a great sin. There is no greater sin than criticising others. Therefore, we should not criticise anybody whosoever hay may be.
Love All. Love is God. God is Love. Love is Life.

6. For a human being, his Karma (Duty) is verily his God. God is not somewhere distant from him. He is very much present in his actions in suble form form. From microcosm to macrocosm, God is present everywhere in the form of Karma. Every human being keeps performing actions everyday. However, he should perform all actions to please God. If we perform actions with these feelings, then our actions will not bind us. God is present in every living being; be it a snake, scorpion or man. The actions of every being should be appropriate to the form it is endowed with.
