Has Sen. John McCain been diagnosed with dementia?
It is no use indulging in arguments and disputations; he who clamors aloud has not grasped the truth, believe Me. Silence is the only language of the realized. Practice moderation in speech. That will help you in many ways. It will develop Prema, for most misunderstandings and factions arise out of carelessly spoken words. When the foot slips, the wound can be healed; but when the tongue slips, the wound it causes in the heart of another will fester for life. The tongue is liable to four big errors; uttering falsehood, scandalizing, finding fault with others and excessive articulation. These have to be avoided if there has to be shaaanti for the individual as well as for society. The bond of brotherhood will be tightened if people speak less and speak sweet. That is why mounam (silence) was prescribed as a vow for saadhakas by the Shaastras. You are all saadhakas (spiritual aspirants) at various stages of the road and so this discipline is valuable for you also.
