Little slip great flop

Living life is as being on knife

Please others in order to you be pleased. We are living among jackals, tigers and some human beings. These constitute society. Surviving in this atmosphere one should have shrewdness. In the moving crowd if one stays behind he/she will be trampled to death. Move along, move along, keep moving is the lesson one should imbibe.
Be a friend to a friend and a foe to a foe. Well how to identify a friend and a foe? Or else you will be yourself a foe. I am no a preacher and not qualified as one. But this is out of experience in life.
Traces of some words uttered may be hurting for ever and there won't be any remorse. This is great words of the great Thiruvalluvar: 'If you cannot do good to others at least do not harm them'. How many of us follow this. Some rejoice in others' sufferings. With lip sympathy they are at mirth at heart forgetting that the ill if had befell them how will be their position be.
Caste feelings - hatreds - as long as they come to stay, men cannot live in amity. There will be jealousy, scandal-mongering etc. On the spiritual side also nothing is perfect, it seems. There are umpteen faiths each one wanting to boost his belief and crush others way of life. Even among Hindus, Vaishnavite, Saivate, Madhwaite dishormony prevails. A Madhwacharaya follower feels his/her acharya should be alone professed and brush aside with contempt Saivate or Vaishnavite gurus and vice versa. Those teachers are gone for ever but the sects that are so-called followers fight among themselves. Religions little said the better. When will we be all one? That Almighty alone knows.
