This Is How to Live Life

As it is, people do not know how to live at all. People do not know the first thing about marriage, yet they get married without a choice! One does not know how to be a father, yet he became a father anyway. Now one should live life in such a way that it makes the children happy. Everyone should decide in the morning, ‘Let’s agree on not getting into clashes with anyone today.’ Show me what you gain from clashing. What benefit do you gain?

Questioner: We get hurt.

Dadashri: Not only do you get hurt, hurt not only arises through this clash right now, but your entire day gets ruined and moreover, you will forgo human birth in your next life. Human life-form remains as long as there is virtuousness. But if there is beastliness, if one keeps prodding others, keeps ramming his ‘horns’ into others, then would a human life-form be attained again? Do cows and buffalos ram others with horns or do people?

Questioner: People seem to do so more.

Dadashri: If a person does so more, then he will have to take birth in the animal life-form. So there, he will have four legs instead of two and a tail in addition! Do you think life is easy there? Is there no suffering there? There is tremendous suffering. You will have to understand this. How can it go on in this way?
