We have the tendency to judge others by their surface appearance, and to find only their negative qualities. But if we search beneath the surface we discover that a myriad of strains mix together to create a particular person's nature. The faults we perceive are likely to be the effect of circumstances, the psychological response to trauma, abuse, rejection, heartbreak, insecurity, pain, confusion, or disease.
Radhanath SwamiReal religion is about, developing real character; character of compassion, character of humility, the character of determination to grow in all circumstances.
Radhanath SwamiIn Kali yuga, duration of life is shortened not so much because insufficient food but because of irregular habits.
