A seed has to get buried in the soil for its real form as a plant to emerge. Only through modesty and humility can we grow. Pride and conceit will only destroy us. Live with the firm attitude, 'I am everyone's servant.' Then the whole universe will bow down to us.

We should never forget that after every night, there is a dawn. We should never lose our optimistic faith.

Whatever binds us most, whatever is dearest to us, that is what we should offer the Lord. Doesn't a mother give her child whatever she thinks is the best?

Writing a diary every evening before going to bed is a good habit. We can record in the diary how much time we have devoted to our spiritual practice. The diary should be written in a way that helps us see our mistakes and correct them. It should not be a mere document of other peoples' faults or our daily transactions.

We should try our best to relieve the suffering of others in whatever way we can.

Love and spiritual values received from parents are the strongest assets for a child to face the various trials of adulthood.

When love and compassion fills your heart, you find newness in every moment, and life becomes a celebration.
