Everyone in this ephemeral and transient world aspires for peace and security. But money, education, position of authority and physical comforts cannot confer peace and security. Peace originates from the heart. You can experience peace and security only when your heart is filled with love. Most people today are bereft of gratitude, which is one of the most essential qualities. They forget the help rendered to them by others. As long as you are alive, you should be grateful for the help you received from others. There are two things you must forget: the help you rendered to others and the harm others have done to you. If you remember the help you rendered, you will always expect something in return. Remembrance of the harm done to you by others generates in you a sense of revenge. Always remember only the help you received from others. The one with these sacred qualities is an ideal human being.
