Treasure - Faith

Maa kuru dhana jana yauvana garvam

Harati nimeshaat kala sarvam

Maya-mayamidam Akhilam hitvaa

Brahma padam tvam pravisha vidhitva

-Sri Adi Sankarar

My friends and family are my biggest treasure, I have infintely re-iterated Emerson’s ‘Friends are the ornaments of a house.’

Secondly, I treasure my body and health.

But, I also COMPLETELY agree with Adi Sankarar in I should not be proud of myself due to the wealth/health/status in society I possess. All of this can be wiped away in a single second. What cannot be wiped away and will be the true treasure is our faith.

Without faith, plan, perseverence, persistence, and patience, the four virtues I believe in, will have no further progress. Also, faith acts as a glue to bring together these 4 habits, individually they are nothing more than silliness. Reverse is also true. Faith is not just a 5 letter word, to acheive it you need the 4Ps. I guess I have just discovered a spiritual theorem :)

As a kid, faith comes from outside in, parents and teachers begin to plant it in us. As we grow, we need to have faith in ourselves, and hence, stems from inside out.
