________________
Mind, body and speech are our wonderful instruments by means of which we can obtain anything we hke If they be properly used they bring Unsatiable desire happiness and if not, misery Since man has failed to keep an equilibrium of mind, and to harmoniously use them that he has failed to attain the desired result One moment, if he were elated with success the next he might be punished with defeat Every event in life has this dual nature We are in the dark as to what turn our fate would take next The uncertainty of the future robs us of our sense of happiness If once for all, we admit this change as fact, if we appreciate it as the two aspects of one and the same thing, we will not lose balance of mind or sense of happiness so soon. One seeking happiness should keep cool head in ease and prosperity, but should not be inactive and negligent of duty, however, when adverse circumstances assail him These are unavoidable accidents in life The man should be even-minded in both Pain accompanies pleasure as black lining in bright clothes
They form warp and woof in 'the process' of life as in manufacturing of cloth You can only enjoy a hearty meal on an empty stomach No hunger, no satisfaction Allaying of pain is pleasure You relish the positive condition when it is preceded by the negative one Happiness lies in giving right attention, in adjudicating the claims of both
