Children, do not listen to those who malign masters and sages. Never listen to or indulge in derogatory talk about anyone. When we harbor negative thoughts about others, our minds become impure.

Fill your hearts with love and gratitude. Life gives us what we need and not necessarily what we want. It follows its own wisdom, which is often incomprehensible to our gross minds. We should learn to accept situations in life. This attitude of acceptance is the secret to happiness.

Make use of all free time at the office and elsewhere for chanting your mantra or reading spiritual books. Avoid indulging in unnecessary gossip and try to talk about spiritual subjects with others.

Whatever you see, hear or experience in the world is ephemeral. Get in touch with the eternal substratum of everything.

Pray for a peaceful and contented mind in all circumstances.

Love one another without any expectations. Then, there is no need to go anywhere in search of heaven.

Don't be discouraged by your incapacity to dispel darkness from the world. Light your little candle and step forward.
