Some Selected Jewels.

[Guest guest]

I am now giving you some selected jewels, maxims of conduct, that are very important. Collect and treasure them well:

 

Let Love be considered the very breath of your life. Believe that there is nothing greater than Truth, nothing more precious, nothing sweeter and nothing more lasting. Be always on the alert against the 4 sins that the tongue is prone to commit - Speaking falsehood, Speaking ill of others, Backbiting and Talking too much. It is best to attempt to control these tendencies.

 

One must be always very vigilant, without a moment's carelessness against the 8 sins that the mind perpetrates - Craving, Anger, Greed, Attachment, Impatience, Hatred, Egoism and Pride. Your primary duty is to keep all these things at a safe distance, free from yourself.

 

Whatever actions you perform, you will have to reap their consequences accordingly. Therefore you should develop morality and imbibe human qualities. When the food becomes stale, there is no use keeping it any longer, because it will become more stale. You may hide sins from society, but you cannot hide anything from God. Therefore do not try to hide anything.

 

If you can do good to others, do it. Otherwise, keep quiet. At least, do not harm anybody. Cause no harm to anyone by your thoughts, words or deeds. The consequences of your actions will come to you sooner than later. There maybe some delay but you cannot escape these consequences. Develop love for God and develop human qualities and morality. When there is morality in the society, all will be protected and no harm will come to the society.
