According to the law of nature, everyone is bound to experience success and failure. We must face both the situations with a normal mind and accept both the states as being in the usual course of things.
The tongue is like a double-edged sword. Its right use can create the spirit of love, while its wrong use creates hatred and intolerance in society.
Conscience is the strongest check against wrongdoing. Anyone who wants to live as an honest person must keep a guard upon his conscience or moral sensitivity. Nothing else can guarantee his personal morality.
A man who has made a mistake can completely erase the marks by admitting his mistake and begging forgiveness. It is only he who has learned the art of moral introspection will, in the long run, prove himself a person of inviolable integrity.
A thoughtless remark, an unfair manoeuvre, a failure to give much-needed sympathy or support, a devious transaction—all these are plain indicators of the lack of integrity of the person you are dealing with.
Depression is only a temporary phase of life. Depression is like a tedious journey. During this journey, you may be tired or bored, but when you reach your destination, you experience happiness and satisfaction.

Spiritual people remain undisturbed in the face of provocation, their mental balance is not upset by unpleasant experiences, and the distasteful behaviour of others does not arouse any feelings of anger or revenge in them.
