5. Never neglect you health.

To cultivate A Beautiful Mind
To cultivate a beautiful garden you must uproot all weeds and other unlovely things. Like wise to cultivate a beautiful mind you must uproot and cast away from you all mental weeds and other unlovely thoughts, such as pride, envy, impatience, fear, resentment, and selfishness.
Everyone sings the glory of the heart, because it is a dwelling place of God. If you want to interact with Him, then you must turn your mind within.
The world is a comedy to those who think, a tragedy to those who feel.
I drive joy
There was a doctor in Benaras who spent 5 minutes in the morning and evening for mediation on God. Knowing this, his colleagues and friends laughed at him. One day they argued that he was wasting ten precious minutes on something, which he had been misled into believing. The doctor replied, “Well, if God does not exist, I agree that I am wasting ten minutes a day. But, if He exists? I am afraid you are wasting your entire lifetime. I prefer to waste ten minutes rather than a lifetime. Why should you grudge me the 10 minutes joy that I derive from? I am not robbing you of your joy; why should you rob me of mine. He asked. The critics were silenced. –Baba- Chinna Katha
