Have an eager, receptive attitude to imbibe the teachings of your master. Be absolutely
guileless, frank and candid like a child. Have unshakable faith in the words of your Guru or Srutis.
Be ever ready to serve. Serve with pure love, kindness, and courtesy. Never show a weary or
gloomy face when you serve. Live a life of utter devotion to service.
Develop sympathy, affection, benevolence, tolerance and humility. Have a catholic or
liberal view. Give a place for the views of all. You will have an expanded life and a very large heart.
You will attain the exalted state of Buddhahood.
