what exactly is your duty?

no time to give a proper blog today (and yesterday too) so what i’m going to do today is… yes you guess it… post a quotation/saying/poem. this one is found on my desk calendar. fitting for the end of the year i see, for you to take stock of it and digest it.

—————————

WHAT EXACTLY IS YOUR DUTY?

FIRST, tend to your parents with love, reverence and gratitude.

SECOND, speak the truth and act virtuously.

THIRD, whenever you have time, repeat the name of the lord/allah/buddha/whatever god

FOURTH, never indulge in talking ill of others or try to discover faults in others, and

FINALLY, do not cause pain to others in any form.
