Learning the Most Important Lessons (Part 4)

How do you treat people and other living entities who can do nothing for you in return? A truly kind and compassionate person will not want anything in return from others. Their happiness is in pleasing the Supreme Lord, not in being praised or acknowledged. If we are given some praise or gift, we can immediately give thanks to the Supreme Lord. How do you treat others in times of crisis? Being in the material world is a crisis for the eternal spirit soul unless a person remembers their loving relationship with the Supreme Lord. So, we should always remember that this world is not our home and that we are always at risk of becoming overwhelmed by the material energy.
