PRINCIPAL

A teacher in my life, to

whom I have never told a lie.

She is the messenger of god,

and is the role model for all.

She teaches me the lesson of

discipline, correctness and

forgiveness, so that my life is

full of happiness. A teacher

who is wise, she cares for me

and wears no disguise. She

reminds me of the moral

values and responsibilities, So

that I am not addicted to

some bad quality, she

sometimes gets angry on me,

but I don't feel bad of it,

because She is the book of

knowledge for me. She can

work 24 hours of the day,

without giving a break to the

way. She is none other than

my teacher-my role model.

Live and Let Others

Live – A story from The

Life Of Lord Mahavira,

(Source – LIFE

MANAGEMENT By

Muni Shri Pranamya

Sagar Ji Once, Lord Mahavir was

walking on a path. People

told him not to walk on

that path as there was a

big jungle ahead which

was the home of a very

poisonous snake. Mahavir

followed that path only.

He found the snake. The

snake bit him on his leg.

It is said that milk started

coming out of his leg. The

snake was lost in thoughts

that even though I

harmed him he did not

harm me. Milk, instead of

blood, was a result of

Mahavir’s compassion

towards all living beings.

His greatness had such a

profound effect on the

snake that it stopped

biting people after that. As

a result, people started

throwing stones at it

thinking that it is not

poisonous. Even though it

had been bleeding badly,

the snake kept up it’s

forgiving attitude till it’s

end. When people asked,

it said – “I have learnt this

forgiveness from

Mahavir.”

Lord Mahavir had

compassion towards

everyone - animals, birds,

insects, somebody known

or unknown etc.

We should also treat every

life and every creature

with love and compassion.

“All of us do not have equal talent. But, all of us

have an equal opportunity to develop our

talents.” - A PJ ABDUL KALAM
