________________ Mental tension not only makes you lose your peace and contentment but also does not let you focus on your spiritual activities. Shree Dharmaratna Prakaran (namely a holy scripture) has described 21 requirements for practicing spiritual activities. "Supakshayukt" i.e. an accommodating family is one such requirement. An accommodating and facilitating family is one which is filled with the sweet fragrance of noble virtues and love, unity, tolerance and an attitude of helpfulness form the colours of their rangolis, (colourful welcoming decorations at their entrance). Such a family is called a facilitating supaksh family. In a house holder's life, an important pillar for helping. him to maintain peace is his child. An important contributor for a child's character is his parents. When both contributors lose their effectiveness, the house no longer remains vibrant and cheerful but becomes a lifeless tent of dejected orphans. This is a social crime also. Such an outcome after getting a human birth in a noble family is akin to a spiritual tragedy. The character development of the new generation has become a very vital problem of today's times. A lot of awareness prevails in this context. It is the parents's responsibility to ensure that their heir is not attacked by any virus. You get two big benefits where this duty is fulfilled with responsibility 1. Children are an important support for enabling the parents to have peace. Their development will ensure the security of the parents. Human-birth provides a fertile ground for the spiritual development of a soul. After getting such a birth if a child gets the right training, his life is also made and his birth proves fruitful. Character building is such a strange ritual, that the host and the guest both benefit from it. mo Second Edition 103
