Love of Neighbour........
Fill every word of yours with love; fill every act of yours with love
The land was in the grip of a famine. A beggar on a street corner reached out to the great Russian writer, Tolstoy, who was passing by. Tolstoy stopped, searched for a coin but found none. With real sorrow, he said, "Don't be angry with me, my brother. I have nothing with me." The beggar's face lighted up as he replied, "But you called me brother--that is a great gift."
Fill every word of yours with love; fill every act of yours with love. Talk less. For the more you indulge in loose talk, the more you are prone to bad qualities. The word that emerges from your tongue shall not stab like the knife, nor wound like the arrow, nor hit like the hammer. It has to be a foundation of sweet nectar, a counsel of consoling spiritual wisdom, a soft path of blossoms, it must shower peace and joy.
Consider love as your very life, tread the path of truth and righteousness, and lead a peaceful life. Truth, righteousness, peace and love are the forms of God. These four values are the life supporting principles. One having all these four qualities alone is a true human being. There are no greater powers, no greater ideals, and no greater support than these human values. Adhere to these four values and carry on with your life sojourn.
