ન સંસ્કાર Selflessness is the fundamental requirement for living a true spiritual life. Be a real student by accepting the following dictum: "My mind is always open for correction, improvement and for acquiring further knowledge." There are no Sundays and holidays in spiritual life. The fundamental base of true spiritual life is plain living and high thinking. The days of our youth are the days of our glory. Make the best use of it. When wealth is lost, nothing is lost; When health is lost, something is lost; When character is lost, everything is lost. Everyone will have to work hard for his own salvation, because there is no other alternative for the same. Showmanship (દંભ, દેખાડો) is of no real value in true spiritual progress. Some books are to be tasted, others to be swallowed and a few to be chewed and digested!
(Bacon Francis) Propriety of manners and consideration for others are the two main characteristics of a gentleman.
