When God resides in your consciousness, you speak with kindness and grace. Even in writing—whether a letter, a telegram of old, or an SMS today—your words will be good. Those in whose consciousness God dwells will never write or speak harshly. But in whose consciousness the devil resides, negative words emerge: jealousy, anger, hatred. Their mood shifts constantly, and a moody person is truly poor. Therefore, do not be always changing your mood. Be kind. Be humble. Be a good helper. Give love and attention. That is yoga in daily life. Teachers who are very kind and care for each individual attract many people. Individual care can be as simple as asking, “How are you today?” That is enough. There was a meeting where presidents from many countries had gathered. Among them was a president from a nation not well-loved by the world. During the reception, staff were serving food and drink. One young waiter, carrying a tray of drinks, approached this president. The waiter hated him, though they had never met. Before taking a glass from the tray, the president smiled, touched the young man’s shoulder, and said, “My friend, how are you today? You must be tired. You must be feeling tired, but anyhow, you are a good man. You are a strong one.” For months afterward, that young man had only one subject of conversation: “Out of so many presidents, only one—the best—was that man who touched my shoulder like a father and asked, ‘Young man, how are you?’ He saw my tiredness. Our own president did not even look at me or at the tray. I stood there for about three minutes, then left. I am so disappointed in our president; he is such an arrogant person. He did not even realize I was standing with a heavy tray in front of him. He could have simply said yes or no.” This example shows that you can change anyone for the better. Be good. Be kind. Everyone needs love, for life is love. Where there is no love, there is no life. Even furniture needs love; your windows and glasses need love. A world maintained with full love and attention is beautiful. Success lies in your discipline, but even more so in your kindness. When you are kind, God speaks through your words and thoughts. When you are good and established in this consciousness, you need not worry about anything. You are happy. Proceed in your teaching and approach your friends in this manner, and you will be successful. Just open a small window—perhaps only half a square meter or a quarter of a square meter—and the horizon revealed will be thousands or millions of times wider. So when you open a little window of your heart toward others, you will receive a millionfold in return. When you open the window of your heart to others, you will get back a million times.
