________________ 132 THE FAMILY AND THE NATION success of others, which is indeed the highest order of emotional intelligence. Here, we recommend to all the educational institutions in the nation to include in the curriculum the following oath for all students up to the age of seventeen. AN OATH OF EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE BY THE YOUTH • I realize I have to set a goal in my life. To achieve the goal, I will acquire the knowledge, I will work hard, and when the problem occurs, I have to defeat the problem and succeed. As a youth of my nation, I will work and work with courage to achieve success in all my tasks and enjoy the success of others. • I shall always keep myself, my home, my surroundings, neighbourhood and environment clean and tidy. • I realize righteousness in the heart leads to beauty in the character, beauty in the character brings harmony in the home, harmony in the home leads to order in the nation and order in the nation leads to peace in the world. If imbibed from a young age, this oath will help the growth of a righteous mind in the youth, steer them towards a purposeful life, and remove all stresses, thereby building future citizens with healthy minds and bodies.
