Harold J. Laski, the famous socialist professor of The London School of Economics wrote to his wife soon after his wedding twice a day. Love has an irresistible urge. It finds expression in writing. Passionate natures pour themselves into passionate words of Love. Napoleon from the battlefield wrote to Josephine and he excelled Laski. He would write thrice a day to his object of love. Often, Josephine would not even open the letters and amused herself with other men.

The future belongs to Spirituality, not religion, says The Mother. The time of religion is over according to Her. Religion is many following the inspiration of one enlightened person. Spirituality is each one seeking his own illumination. As Protestantism removed the priest between Man and God, Spirituality will enable each man to seek his own God, seated inside.

We do not ask why tall boys fail or handsome persons are sometimes foolish. We know tallness is unrelated to good performance in exams and pretty faces have nothing to do with mental brilliance. But we often expect that good people should be rewarded with prosperity. We fail to see that handsome looks are a physical characteristic and success in life is an ability to organise a productive work. We also see that some good people are poor, neglected and are the butt end of unjust treatment.

It is a common experience of those who are in luck to see the phenomenon of several GOOD things happening one after the other. At such times people say, " These things are happening in quick succession, each one of them is more than a miracle. Even if it is written as fiction, no one will believe it. Why, I myself will not believe it. Life is too good to believe." This is a truth very well known to the world, but it is known as 'misfortunes do not come singly'. There is a Tamil proverb that just echoes this idea.

Unformed vital personalities are ready to adore the first dominant person they meet. They look for a leader. When one comes their way, they are ready. In such a population, hero-worship thrives. Such people easily switch over from one leader to another. All that they want is someone to worship, adore, hold up as an ideal. The longing heart finds an adorable ideal, not necessarily that there is something to be adored. 

Proverbs are repositories of wisdom. Those who want to study a foreign culture often study their proverbs. A work like Thirukural is famous all over the world. Its great wisdom is found in the proverbs of the land. The joke about the proverbs is, "Wise men wrote them; fools repeat them now." Proverbs go to the secret depths of life and enshrine the secret in a short pithy saying. However great the proverbs are, they are confined to Life which is presided over by karma.

Every new technology makes us more efficient and accomplish more. Our education aims at it; our upbringing has that as a goal. The one MOTIVATION of man seems to be constantly better than before. Spiritually it is a great ideal. If so, how do we achieve that?

Positive people are of positive value. What can we do with negative person? One who overhears, gossips, abuses, carries tales, sets one against another, neglects his own work, and feels an intense jealousy, is impossible. The best course for us with such personalities is to avoid them, or at least NOT give them scope to train their guns on us. 

Families consist of husband and wife and children. Often several such families, though living apart, function together as one unit for every major aspect. Increasing income of the FAMILY is a desirable thing. No one confuses greed for money with the steady rise in income commensurate with the rising needs of modern life. Government Officers who, 30 years ago, were on a couple of thousand rupees salary are now earning Rs. 15,000 or even more. It hurts no one's conscience that he is growing greedy. Modern life demands more.

Someone had earned a good reputation in making pickles. His outlook was service. He initiated several people in to the same business. He had fostered competition instead of fighting it. A few decades ago, he was making a handsome monthly income from it. On meeting someone and discussing about his business he heard, "Your present profits can be doubled." Being enamoured of the proposal, he engaged her in the hope of increasing his present annual profit of one lakh of rupees.
