21. Good character is more to be
praised than outstanding talent.
Most talents are, to some extent,

Good character, by contrast,
is not given to us.
We have to build it piece by piece,
by thought, choice, courage,
and determination.
- John Luther

for all wrong reasons and
make things difficult for others
to live peacefully.
Also, our tiny planet looks so small and
fragile.
Good for all of us to be simple & humble!

Cows are of different colours and patches;
but, the colour of the milk is only white;
Similarly, Flowers are of various colours, fragrance, and size
but, either alone, or together, as a garland, they serve the
same purpose when they reach the feet of the Lord,
for worship.
Various Seers, Prophets and Great Souls – visualized, perceived
and announced the realized truths as rules, code of conduct, do‟s
and don‟ts, as religious precepts, etc. Notwithstanding the
apparent differences, how can the underlying TRUTH be different?
If only all the people realize this reality, come together and worship the
Lord – in any manner, by any name, in any form – Everybody will be
HAPPY – Surely, the Lord will appreciate such an effort – that is
the spirit behind UNIVERSIAL BROTHERHOOD.

the best we can be.”

Questionable moral climate,
Lack of
strong, value-based up-bringing, and
Celebration of negative role models

99. THE INEQUALITY,
THE INEFFICIENCY,
THE INDIFFERENCE,
THE INEFFECTIVENESS . . .
THE GROWING POVERTY,

105. What does any one want in life?
Why this dissatisfaction,
almost in everyone,
without exception ?
To live ~ you need health
To be healthy ~ you need healthy habits
in respect of everything –
What you eat, drink, breath, think, say, do, etc. – for
simplifying the whole thing we will refer to this as
SAMSKARAM.
To have Samskaram – you need Education –
of course, the right type of education.
This education must give you
the wisdom, and the ability to discriminate.
