Speak Measured Words

Control the mind skilfully and tactfully. Think rightly and clearly. Discipline the organ of
speech. Speak sweetly, gently, and truthfully. Become a man of measured words.
Be humble and do prostrations to all beings mentally. Feel the Divine Presence everywhere.
Give up vanity, pride and hypocrisy. Never hurt a man in thought, word and deed. Always do good
and kind acts. You will attain Supreme Peace and eternal happiness.
Attune your heart with the Lord by doing fervent and sincere prayer daily. Be humble and
simple. Practise morality. Develop contentment. Drink the Bliss of the Soul.
