The human heart is very soft when it is young. It responds to grief and pain in fellow beings. It is the example of elders, the lessons they receive from parents, the company they get into and the training they get in school and society that harden these hearts into stone! Keep those hearts soft. Share with others their grief and their joy. Do not be jealous when others are happier or appreciated or rewarded with prizes. Emulate their hard-working nature, pray for a higher share of intelligence or a sharper memory, but never give room to envy and malice in your hearts. Envy is a deadly poison, it will contaminate your character, ruin health and rob you of peace. Like a pest that destroys growing crops, envy enters slyly and spreads quickly causing rampant damage. So, even in small matters, be vigilant to ensure you do not fall a prey to envy. Be unaffected by envy (anasuya) and you can please God.
