Don't take anything for granted

Hey, how's it going?

You know, today I want to talk to you about respect.

All right, so, you know, years back, about just about 10-15 years back, I had, you know, severe stress issues.

And, you know, I then suddenly couldn't eat even this much morsel of food.

I mean, to drink, you know, this much glass of water would take me about, you know, an hour.

And it's unbelievable, but The reason I'm sharing this with you is because, you know, we take things for granted.

So you should not take anything for granted.

I mean, if it's your body, if it's functioning today, have respect for it.

I mean, the food that you eat inside the body, Krishna says, first offer it to God and then eat it.

Or, you know, if you don't get the chance, you know, have respect for the body of what you put inside this body.

You know, the way you treat your body, your eyes, I mean, been given your eyes to see.

So if you're seeing, you know, things which are, you know, not good to you or to anyone, it's it's it's it's going to, you know, fall apart someday.

So have respect for the body because don't take it for granted.

Don't take your eyes, your ears, your nose, you know, your ears.

I mean, today you're hearing.

There's so many people who can't hear.

I mean, don't take it for granted.

Hear good things.

You know, see good things and it's natural.

But the idea here is don't take things for granted that today it's working, tomorrow it will work.

So have that respect for your body, you know, if if you know, don't indulge too much in anything, you know, it's okay, you know, you don't have to be, you don't have to completely withdraw but don't indulge, that's the word.

Have respect and you know, in in pleasure, you know, restrain, you know, don't indulge, don't indulge because it's going to tear apart.

Very, very important, don't take your body for granted, have respect and you it will bear you fruit.

Same type thing, work.

I mean, you know, if you're in if you're in a work, you know, if you're in a job, you know, don't take it for granted just because of 5 years, 10 years, everything is well.

Work as if it's your first day, you know, work like that because it's very important that you have respect for that work.

Because if you take it for granted, suddenly things will happen, something, and then you'll feel very bad when you lost it.

So, it's very, very important that your attitude towards work should be towards respect, as if you're working for the first day, you know.

So you don't have to be extremely cautious or something, but be alert.

That's the word, be alert.

Don't take it for granted, you know.

Don't take your work for granted.

You know, very, very important that, you know, if you have that attitude, you know, you'll perform very well.

And it's very, very important.

You'll not be dejected.

That's right.

If you have studies, your exam, whatever, don't take everything for granted, you know.

So in your body, in your work, in your relationship, don't take people for granted.

If things work fine for 5 years, 10 years, 15 years, doesn't mean- there's so many, you know, couples who have done very well for 10, 15 years, and then suddenly something happened.

Be careful about what you speak, the way you conduct yourself.

Don't take anything for granted.

That's the message.

Have respect for your body, have respect for your work, have respect towards relationship, and above all, have respect towards the conscious- consciousness.

When you do that, you will win.

Thank you and God bless.
