• Regard your health as of great value and take every care to safe guard it. Health once lost is hard to recover. The essence of human life is reason, faculties of reason, morality, faith and knowledge. It is only the physical health which ensures the proper functioning of human faculties of reason, morality, faith and knowledge. In fact, physical health is the basic factor in the development of mind and the growth of reason; it is also a pre-requisite for the performance of sublime acts of morality. A week and sick body has a feeble mind whose faculty of reason can not but be unsound and utterly hopeless. When life is devoid of longing and ardor; when there is no courage and the will is weak; when the passions have cooled down and are exhausted such spiritless existence is a drag on the infirm body. It is imperative therefore, that one have robust physique, sturdy intellect and sound mind, firm will, high morale and a life full of spirit, enthusiasm and sublime passions.
• You should always be cheerful, glad, alert and active. Make your life well ordered, elegant, and healthy by means of good living, cheerful manners, joyful smiles and lively disposition. Avoid sorrow, anger, grudge or anxiety, envy, jealousy, slander, narrow-mindedness; don’t lose your spirit and keep your mind clear of all complexes. These moral ills have an adverse effect on the digestive system and a defective digestive system is the major cause of poor health.

You should form the habit of facing all forms of hardship and tackling with the most difficult situations. Prepare yourself to lead the hard. Don’t be ease-loving, careless, delicate, indolent, timid and a materialist.
