 Similarly this tongue also has so many good uses. How
many do we adopt ? Do we think that this tongue can cheat
me and thus we should utilize it smartly ? Speak good,
sing Lord’s devotional songs and chants, recite scriptural
verses, and talk about the virtues of great men.

“All those whom we trust, can someday unexpectedly break
our trust” If this is properly fit in our mind, then not only
eyes and tongue but we will utilize all other parts of the body
also optimally. We will also be always alert to use our wealth,
family, property, business, profits, etc. also for good religious
uses like devotion of God, serving saints, charity to the poor,
reverence of scriptures, etc.

While getting up in the morning, sit back and think “The
mighty Karmasatta deceived the great, fortunate Sita. Will it
be loyal to me ? Will it work according to my expectations ?
Will it timely serve me ?”

Not only me, but this Karmasatta and material objects
can betray the entire world.

Hence we should do as many good deeds as we can till
they are in our favour.

Thus during Karmasatta’s first attack, the calculation to stay
happy and enjoy palatial pleasures suddenly transformed into
the troublesome forest life. Karmasatta’s tight slap ! It also
teaches that your Punya can break your trust untimely.
