Chanakya Niti provides a lot of real life examples to prove the authenticity of his sayings. He was he masterly statesman, and a guru for ills of life of mankind. He has certain instructions to give when it comes to avoiding adversities in life. Make it a habit to pursue and internalize these five truths and you will be out of difficulties of life.

The Power Of Good Habits

As per Chanakya, Good habits follow a person through all his lifetimes. If you are used to tapasya, charity, and acquiring knowledge in your previous birth, it will follow you in this lifetime as well. For instance, a wealthy man who has given away all his wealth, cannot enjoy wealth any more. He is no more called a wealthy man. Similarly, a person given to only studying the scriptures and disciplines of knowledge without any intention of practically implementing them to his life so that he is benefitted, will not carry this knowledge over to his next birth.

So habits are so strong they follow you birth after birth and become a part of your nature. So it is important to cultivate good habits in life so that they will serve you in the afterlife as well. This habit if inculcated bring so many benefits to your doorstep and avert most possible dangers.

The Twin Benefits Of Polite Speech And Satsang

There are two fold benefits that world offers, that of polite speech (not just polite on the outside, it should not harm or hurt others) and the other, of Satsang. Satsang does not let you think nasty, behave obnoxiously, and nurse deep rooted resentments and anger towards others. Rather, it makes you calm, most positive and progressive in your approach, and removes your negativities for good. Why not try it when all it gives is peace and a sense of balance to your life?

Satsang is nothing but spending some time in your favourite God's remembrance be it through singing devotional songs, or reading spiritual books, or meditating with a likeminded few, or even share your thoughts and feelings about spiritual gurus or their teachings with your friends for some time that is reserved for it.

We are all going through hell of our own kind, be it a king or a pauper, and it really does not harm if you speak a few kind words to anyone as it will relieve them of the hell at least for a moment. They will thank you for it. Instead when you hurt a person intentionally or otherwise, he will simply feel small and it leaves a bitter taste in the mouth for both of you. Sweet speech has saved lives, inspired others, and motivated many. Right from children to seniors, everyone loves to hear a good word from someone. Be the good Samaritan who provides just that.

See That Your Honour In Society Is Intact

See that your self-respect is intact and your honour in society, untouched. A man should live basically to uphold his honour. When a person is dishonoured disrespected and belittled, it kills him each and every moment of his existence. While death is a onetime affair, ignominy lasts a lifetime. Death causes agony for a couple of minutes as you making your way to the other world but bad reputation is death in bits and pieces as long as you live. So keep an eye on your reputation.
