Christmas Gems (7) - Always Pray for the Welfare of All

"You should help people even if you have to undergo some difficulties.

Never indulge in reviling others, for the same atma is permeating every living being.

If you abuse others, it amounts to abusing your own self.

If you do not like them, keep yourself away from them, but never abuse them.

Any amount of good work done by you will be of no use, if you do not give up bad

qualities. If you cannot do good to others, at least speak good words.

You cannot always oblige, but you can speak always obligingly.

If you find someone suffering, try to help him. Today it is his turn, but tomorrow it could

be yours.

Always keep this in mind. Nobody can escape from pain and suffering.

Always pray for the welfare of all. It is only in this context, the universal prayer of

Loka samasta sukhino bhavantu

(May all the people of the world be happy!)

is addressed."
