True celebrating of New Year
is the day when man
is the day when man
gives up bad qualities, fills his heart
with love and takes to the path of sacrifice.
Do not limit the celebration of New Year
to merely putting on new clothes and
partaking of delicious items.
Today you may wear a new shirt,
but how long will it remain new?
Tomorrow it becomes old.
Today's newspaper becomes
a waste paper tomorrow.
Our life is like a newspaper.
Once you have finished reading a newspaper,
you do not like to read it again and again.
You have been given this birth
which is like a newspaper, and have
gone through varied experiences of pleasure and pain.
Enough is enough. You should pray,
"Oh God! You have given me this 'newspaper'
and I have gone through the experiences of this life.
I don't want to have another birth".
