Discretion and Humility in Worldly Interactions (Hindi Dadavani Oct-2016)

Discretion is to differentiate essence from non-essence. In today’s families, root of all burning questions is lack of discretion & humility. Whether in home or outside, there is divisiveness due to differences of opinions, a sense of this is mine & that is yours, stubbornness exists and, in doing so, we consider ourselves to be intelligent! But in reality Param Pujya Dada Bhagwan says that, “An intelligent person is one who finds a ‘safeside’ everywhere, within the home or outside, additionally with discretion one finds ways through which everyone’s happiness increases.” In this edition, Param Pujya Dada Bhagwan has made a fine line of demarcation between discretion & good discretion; humility & absolute humility. Primary emphasis has been placed on discretion in worldly interactions, as first & foremost discretion should be developed. Then good discretion, then humility will develop & finally absolute humility will arise. To start up on the path of ‘absolute’, discretion is must!
