ation rests on their mutual harmony. Suppose the indents of one wheel instead of fitting into the notches of other wheel, clash against the indents of other wheel, will then the rotation and motivation of those wheels keep functioning ? No. It remains the unified effort of the watch maker that he should fit in the parts of the watch with such skilfulness that no indent may clash against the other indent. This should be considered the very proof of its dexterity.
In the same manner the unified efforts of the social organisation should be in such a way that the whole organisation may keep mutually engaged in fulfilling the fundamental aims. The organisation itself internally or externally may not be a demonstration of collision. Where such collision takes place, the primary aim becomes obliterated and in that case the organization does loose its viability.
Bear in Mind The Fundamental aim at Every Step :
If the fundamental aim of the Equanimous Society is to be enunciated in a few words, then it can be expressed in these two sentences:1. Development of an individual in the direction of
Equanimity 2. Reformation of society (Human Society).
Daily clashes between Individual and Society mean inharmony and when a salubrious harmony is effected between the both, then coupled with the elevation of both there will be stable development of Equanimity. Primarily the collision between an individual and society takes place due to the self-interests of an individual, as also due to his unbridled ambitions of achieving everything for himself
