Love has first to gladden the home. There is no love now between the elders and the youngsters in the home; often children do not revere parents. This moral decline will certainly undermine unity and strength. Moral decline is worse than military decline; it will lead to greater disaster. If you always repeat the idea of "mine", how can you be useful to others?... Sacrifice is the 'salt' of life; it is the secret of peace and joy... All the senses are self-centred, egoistic. They must be educated to be "inward-directed", towards the Atma which is Universal.
