(ii) Your Main Task

 

14. This is a world of pain and death, change, disease and decay --

all inseparable attributes of things here.

 

15. To worry yourself about its why and whereof is futile. But to

strive calmly yet earnestly by all means to serve and to help

everyone is indeed noble.

 

16. Live with definite programme for your everyday life.

 

17. Lead a life in tune with nature and all fellow creatures.

 

18. O Man! Make such a preparation here that when the last hour

strikes, you can accept it with perfect joy, serenity, peace

cheerfulness and radiant smile.

 

19. O students of the Yoga-Vedanta Forest Academy! Preach ye the

Life Divine, a life of holiness, purity, sacrifice, selfless

service, renunciation and cosmic love.

 

20. Even the gods envy those who are virtuous, who practise

meditation, who are dispassionate and discriminative, who are wise

and illumined.

 

21. Come, disciples! Lead the Life Divine. Cultivate virtues.

Meditate serioiusly. Attain illumination now and here.

 

22. Always be intent on bringing about the good and the happiness of

others. Your life is blessed.

 

23. Live for others. Love all creatures and animals.

 

24. Be aware of your real nature. You are blissful immortal Atman.

 

25. Root yourself in Brahman or Atman and live the Divine Life.

 

26. Seek out the way. Reach the goal now and here. Rest peacefully

for ever.

 

27. In this new year let your vision be new. Let your thoughts be

new. Let your feelings be new. Let your reactions to surroundings be

new. Let you see everyone as a manifestation of God.

 

28. Be tolerant. Be pure. Be simple. Be humble. This is the way of a

New Life. This is the way of Spiritual Life.
