1. Man does not bring anything with him at the time of his birth. He accumulates everything during life-sojourn on earth. All the money, property and bank balance that you have was neither with you at the time of your birth and nor would it go with you after your death. Then where is the cause to weep and wail when you lose your wealth, property and bank balance.
2. Man is born not to weep and cry. He should lead a happy life and also leave the world happily. why should people worry for worldly possessions which are temporary and ephermereal. Consider everything as God's gift. There can be no society without individual. Therefore, individual is most important. Everything is the gift of God. All worldly things are temporary and impermanent. All these are like passing clouds which come and go. Sometimes thick clouds cover the sun or the moon and you can not see them. There is no need for any worry. If you wait for some time, the cloulds would move away and the sun or the moon will become visible again. What is required is a little patience and forbearance.
3. Man is endowed with great power and three is none in the entire creation who has as much power as man possesses. That is why God also incarnates in human for, There is none greater than God. Therefore to forget God is nothing less than a sacrilege. In fact, we should remember Him every moment of our life. Whatever task you many be engaged in, you should not forget God at any time. That is true humanness. God always gives man bliss and happiness. But due to our delusion, we consider even happiness as sorrow and undergo many types of sufferings.
4. True humanness lies in renouncing the fruits of our actions. It is the expectation of fruits that brings suffering to man. Prior to marriage, man is alone and he walks straight on his two legs. After the marriage, he gets two more legs. When a child is born he virtually becomes a six legged creature. As his legs increase, his sorrows also go on increasing. When you lead your life with positive feelings, there can no scope for sorrow.
5. Never hurt the feelings of your parents who have given you birth and brought you up. But children today do not take care of their parents. They forget their mother who carried them in her womb for nine months, gave birth to them, nursed them, nurtured them , bearing all hardships. You may love your wife but you should treat your parents with humility and respect. Parents should be given foremost importance. Your life will be happy only when you make your parents happy.
6. Why do you pray to God? You pray for peace, happiness, love and bliss. Truly speaking, peace is within you. It is useless to search it outside. Simlarly, truth and love are within you. If you have love, you can attain everything. If you understand the true meaning of love and make proper use of it, you will make great progress in life. Except love, nothing can protect us. Therefore, all of you should understand the principle of love.

GOD IS ONE
1. There is no diversity in this world, there is only oneness. One God appears in many form. Love is God and God is love. The differences, conflicts and quarrels that are prevalent in the world today are mainly due to lack of love in the heart of human being. Many talk in several ways that the world is full of sorrows, miseries and difficulties. In fact nothing of this sort exists this is only a delusion. When there is peace in our heart, we will see peace everywhere. On the contrary, if we have no peace in our heart, then we will find restlessness everywhere. All the restlessness, sorrows and anxieties are our own reaction, reflection and sound. These are all our own making; they do not have any real existence.
2. In only you have faith in God, you can achieve anything. Those who worship God with faith are benefited in every way. Some people develop faith only when their desires are fulfilled. But when their desires are not fulfilled, they lose faith. You should have firm faith whether your desires are fulfilled or not. You should keep your faith safe and secure. If you firmly hold on to the Lord, you can progress to any extent. With faith, even a blind man can see and a dumb man can speak !
3. Everything in the universe happens by the Will of God. Therefore, it is the duty of every person to know the Will of God. Those who have faith in the Will of God are protected; those who lack faith ruin their lives. Man can attain everything with faith and love. Where there is faith there is love.
4. God is manifest in the breath of man. When you breathe, where does the breath come from? It comes from whithin man; the breath itself is God. God is present in man in the form of love; hence man should treasure the love in his heart safely. Only love is permanent and eternal; other thoughts come and go like passing clouds. Perform every task with love. Even if you come across your enemy greet him with love.
5. Every man is prone to commit mistakes either wittingly or unwittingly. But, one mistake he should not commit in any circumstance is to forget what he owes to his mother. Love of a mother can redeem a man’s life, whatever his other lapses may be. The greatest gift of the parents is the body, with all its powers. Although the Lord rules over all lives. It is the parents who have endowed the body to the child. Clay and water are the gifts of nature. But, it is the potter who makes the pot out of them. Hence, gratitude to the parents is a primary obligation.
6. Good and bad coexist. It is not possible for anyone to separate them. When you cultivate more of goodness, the bad in you will become absolutely insignificant. There is no need to use any force to drive away all that is bad. When you forget bad, goodness will develop in you in full measure. The fruits that you earn will be based on your qualities and actions. All that you think will be reflected back to you. Everything is the result of your thoughts
7. One should be prepared to serve others than choose to be served by them. Moreover, there is nothing meritorious in serving those who are high above us. For one thing, they can command the services of attendants. Rendering service to those who are in the same position as ourselves is not also commendable. Service should be rendered to those who are worse off than ourselves and who are neglected by the world.
