Q1 It is nice to teach others about self-respect, integrity and hard work pays; that is also a few of the principles of the sanatana dharma too; Swabhimana (self-respect), शीलत्वम् sheelatvam (integrity) and Hardwork उद्यमशील are all the positive approach for the upcoming youth where the word MAYA, KARMA etc are unknown. And it is unfair to teach the modern young so; but those who learnt the vedic way of life knew all about it and led their life contended. So many auto drivers as read in the newspapers and heard in the media, did carry the pregnant women free, handed over heavy money and jewels, without even taking a reward from the losers; did any one while travelling in their auto knew about them and did pay double the fare for their integrity.? No. Hard work must pay ; Tiruvalluivar also stressed, "OOZHIYUM UTPAKKAM KANBAR"; (even karma will be ignored) ; hard work may not pay 6 shops to everyone ; TATA grandfather was a petrol bunk worker; and today TATA is a kingdom; but in spite of the hard work 99 out of 100 did not become TATA; but will enhance one's level somewhere. That is why it is said "it pays" ;and tiruvalluvar added an adjective "THINNIYARAAGAP PERIN"; positive attitude is loukikam; but facts are pre-determined. Q2 Even a diabetic may lead his life with mere fruits till death; but costly today; costlier than the normal provisions. Q3 To be super healthy one must be sanathanic; then making fun of others , insults and insinuations etc would be absent; but people today live even with it; that means, either super health is a wrong concept or people who die at 113 , ought to have lived for a time till 150 years? It is not a mere joke; the doctors used to say about the diabetics, that their life runs short by at least 10 years , in the 60s. What does it mean?; if the diabetic dies at 100 he ought to have lived till 110? Q4 It is written by Valmiki that everyone knows Rama is GOD , except Rama or else will he drive out his wife?; What about Krishna?; his Guru was Sandipini; studied under him for a shorter term; why as knowing he is bhagavan still underwent Gurukulam?
