Be Your Own Master
You often grasp unnecessary messages from what others say. What others comment about you seem to matter more to you. This way you annoy and worry yourself and complain that people don’t let you live in peace. Your own attitude is the major cause of your worries, so you trouble yourself more. Why should you get carried away by others’ comments – compliments or criticism? A wise and self-confident man does what he determines to do. He is never perturbed by what others say. He is firm and focused to march towards the goal. Socrates was made to drink poison by the mightiest of his time, but no one could change his faith, his views. Banda Bairagi was forced to wear a wolf-skin and roam around in his
town while his face was painted dark. But even this torturous insult could not distract him from his chosen path. Dying for others’ praise, following the popular trends, getting disturbed by negative comments or criticism of others – are clear signs of mental weaknesses. You must remember that following the crowd can lead you nowhere. You have to be your own master if you want to ascend in life. Learn to think prudently on your own. Sharpen your decision-making powers. Follow the righteous path of your duties honestly; just ignore what others would say. If you don’t have the courage to stand and walk on your own, you don’t deserve to be independent.

The secret of happiness
Everyone has their own way of life. They live according to their choice and wisdom. They live according to their sacraments and don’t care much about the way they are living is justified. They just do whatever they like. According to them whatever they feel is right, whether it is right or wrong. Example- Is it OK to drink alcohol? You will say, no this is not right. Then why do a lot of people drink? The answer is clear; they feel it is justified, hence they drink. Drinking is not right but because they like it so they use to drink. This is the way, the whole world is doing according to their own choice and liking. This is what happening all around. But this is not the fact. The fact is something else. The fact is, if you violate Divine laws, then you will definitely get penalized. Whether you wish or not, you will have to follow the Divine laws. This is the law of Divine that always gives happiness to others, never hurts. Therefore, as far as possible, always do good deeds for others; it is for your own welfare. Avoid any sort of iniquities. Be blessed with God's grace. Do good deeds, be happy, and let others be happy. Take control of your wrong desires and try to eliminate completely. Only then will you will be blessed, otherwise no chance of any well-being.
