1st Zonal Orissa Divine Life Conference at
Khurda Road on 1st December 1974)

Dear Parents, Children, and Teachers,


--------------------------------------------------------------

MESSAGE TO STUDENTS : 1.

O Children of Immortality!
In brief I wish to give you the essence of your culture, the ancient message which your ancestors have given to you, especially to the young and especially to the students. I want to tell you very clearly that the need of the students and young people was well known to our great sages of
wisdom. And so they gave a due place to the young people in human soci ety. They gave a special set of principles in the concept of their life, and they formulated a spe cial set of principles for the young people to follow.

Before I try to lay before you their concept of stu dent life, their principles for young people to follow, I give you four sentences, which I want every young man and woman, all students, to memorise and keep as guidelines for your life.

They are four brief sentences and they con tain a very important message. These four brief
sentences which I want you to listen carefully and keep in your memory are as follows :

“When wealth is lost nothing is lost.
When health is lost something is lost.
When character is lost everything is lost.
A person without character is not a man but an animal”.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


THE WEALTH OF CHARACTER :

What distinguishes the human individual from the animal is our behaviour. There is a differ ence between the Charitra (character) of a Pashu (animal) and the Charitra of a Manava (human being). If the Manava does not keep up to this higher standard of Charitra, then even though he may be a human individual in Roopa (form) and Nama (name), he is only an animal because his life, conduct and behavi our is more suitable to the animal than to a man.

Through your behaviour you must prove that you are a human individual. If you have no control over your senses, if you have no principles for your living, if you are subject to anger and passion and gluttony (Kama, Krodha and Vishaya Vilasa), if you have no moderation, then there you have the animal.

Therefore, you have to prove your human status not merely by reading a few text books and
passing a few examinations and getting a degree, but by the manner of your life, conduct and
behaviour. The highest wealth in human life, the highest wealth of youth, is the wealth of
character.

The most precious thing is character.
That is your real treasure.

 If you develop a noble character, then you are really a wealthy person, which means your life is rich with this Aishwarya (wealth) of Satcharitra (noble conduct

To be continued ...

The Mahabharata -  Speech by Swami Vivekananda - Delivered at the Shakespeare Club, Pasadena, California, February 1, 1900)   The other epic about which I am going to speak to you this evening, is called the Mahâbhârata. It contains the story of a race descended from King Bharata, who was the son of Dushyanta and Shakuntalâ. Mahâ means great, and Bhârata means the descendants of Bharata, from whom India has derived its name, Bhârata. Mahabharata means Great India, or the story of the great descendants of Bharata. The scene of this epic is the ancient kingdom of the Kurus, and the story is based on the great war which took place between the Kurus and the Panchâlas. So the region of the quarrel is not very big. This epic is the most popular one in India; and it exercises the same authority in India as Homer's poems did over the Greeks. As ages went on, more and more matter was added to it, until it has become a huge book of about a hundred thousand couplets. All sorts of

CHAPTER 2. HINDU SCRIPTURES : 1.5     1.The Scriptures : 5 5. The Ramayana The Ramayana, the Adi-Kavya or the first epic poem, relates the story of Sri Rama, the ideal man. It is the history of the family of the solar race descended from Ikshvaku, in which was born Sri Ramachandra, the Avatara of Lord Vishnu, and his three brothers. The ideal characters like Rama, Sita, Lakshmana, Bharata and Sri Hanuman that we find in Ramayana firmly establish Hindu Dharma in our minds. The story of the birth of Rama and his brothers, their education and marriages, the exile of Sri Rama, the carrying off and recovery of Sita, his wife, the destruction of Ravana, the Rakshasa King of Lanka, and the reign of Sri Rama, are described in detail in Ramayana. How a man should behave towards his superiors, equals and inferiors, how a king ought to rule his kingdom, how a man should lead his life in this world, how he can obtain his release, freedom and perfection, may be learnt from this excellen

1. We have the famous immortal metaphor of the chariot explaining the Atma and the Body.       2. In the chariot sits the Sarathi ( driver), and the Yodha ( warrior).       3. In the body stays the Paramatma, the Self and the Jeevatma, the Ego and the entire technique of the Adhyatma Yoga is explained.     4. Here the Ratham ( chariot) represents our body,       5. Five horses are our five sense-organs ( Panchendriya),     6. Lagan ( kadjnan/saddles) of the horses is our Buddhi(intelligence),     7.  The Sarathi is our Mind,     8. Yodha is our Atma.
