Worthy Living Why How
Worthy Living Why How
Human life is always worthy – living provided it is bound by empathy, love, understanding and seeks the happiness of all around us.
As my mentor Thanthai Periyar used to say, a bird builds a nest only for itself whereas a human being builds houses for others also. After all humans are social animals with gregarious instinct. Hence service to society should be above ourselves.
Empathetic life is the worthy life.
Life is full of little ironies, for the unexpected should be expected. We must use our reason to meet any eventuality.
Stray thoughts and many ideals I have learnt are being distributed for our friends’ consumption.
Compassion, more than love and affection, should always be our guiding principle.
We feel happy when we see the joyful faces of our brothers and sisters in our inclusive society.
Let this be a humble contribution for the wonderful translation by the late Prof. S.F.N. Chelliah and Prof. M.R. Manohar.
This is not a mantra but an experience to be shared
I am thankful!
