Life is a sort of a continuum of struggles of varied intensities and types. One has to fight with diverse, unfavorable situations and troubles every moment. The success of life is in proceeding ahead against all odds. This seems to be the case with the life cycle of every living being; despite enormous gifts of Nature, there also appear enemies and hardships all around in one form or the other. “Survival of the fittest” is a bitter truth in this world. The weaker is a prey to the stronger; big fishes eat the tiny ones; Sparrows eat insects; Hawks eat sparrows and so on… Huge trees grab the food of the small plants around; the rich men exploit the poor; the mightier rule over the meek.
What do these live-examples teach us? If we do not want to let ourselves ruined by adversities and want to live with dignity, we must be alert and eliminate our weaknesses. We should at least have that much (inner) strength that no one would ruin us just like that; we should at least have the courage, vigor and mental power to fight for our genuine rights and work for moral rise.
Before entering the worldly life, we must know this secret that only the awakened, aware, strong (independent), confident and wise enjoy esteemed success here.
