A follower of true Samata engenders him a contented spirit which is the real guarantee of peacefullness. He enjoins to practise charity and self control, which helps him to create an atmosphere of real 'Samata' all around with a viable footing. Then the heart felt understanding of equality shall spread in the society that the acquiring of all earthly riches has no value what-so-ever compared to the values of the grains of spiritual path of Equanimity (Samata).
Consequently it will reduce or mitigate the self attachment or self aggrandisement and inspire a new faith of being and making equal to all. This shall also move the man to love all to help all and make not only all the human beings, but all the living beings happy in their feelings just before his own self
Really it is the way to 'Samrta' and the feelings that we all are 'Sama' in a sense and should try to be 'Sama' in the final sense. In this respect, the whole picture of 'Samata emerges' in the message of Acharya Shri Nanesh. I feel and believe that this message has a great force in it and this publication shall inspire to all thinkers a new spirit to spread it at large.
