The Real Art of Living
When we hear about the Lord, we should hear with a spirit to serve the Lord. When we chant his names, we should chant so that He is pleased to hear us chanting. That is the beauty of life, the real art of living.

Forget Two Things, Remember Two Things:
1. Anything bad anyone has done to you. To the extent you are willing to forgive, God will forgive. Forgiveness is a great virtue.
2. Any good that you have done to another. If we remember our good deeds, we become proud, and that ruins everything. We should think that we are only delivery persons, delivering the goods God wants us to deliver. Ultimately it’s all done by God.
To the degree we could all live in a way that people can trust us, not just superficially but in actuality, we will have a very powerful and strong society.
Live in the spirit of service rather than exploitation!
The perfection of human existence is to die to live. To die to all material connections and designations and to perform our duties in the spirit of being servants of God.
We do not know about the future. The past is dead. However to prepare for our future and learn lessons from the past, we have to be very keenly aware of the present.
