THE UNIVERSAL MODEL

THE UNIVERSAL MODEL Be a Giver M AN finds himself in a vast universe. As if, universe is a very big society, and man is only a small part of this society. Man has to adopt the same behaviour in his life as the other components of the universe have practically adopted. This is the right natural course for man and the secret of his success lies in adopting this course. What is this model presented by the universe? Observe the stars and planets in the universe. All stars and planets move in their own orbits with great precision and regularity. They do not trespass another’s orbit. Due to this discipline, there is peace in the universe. Man should also opt for this policy of non-interference in the society. Everyone should know it consciously that his freedom ends where the freedom of others begins. Similarly, look at the world of plants. The plants have silently opted for this system of supplying oxygen continuously to fulfill the necessities of living bodies and keep intaking the unwanted carbon dioxide exhaled by the living bodies. This is a selfless system of profitability. It is essential for man also to opt for this system in his life. Likewise, we know that the waters of spring on the mountain flow from upwards to downwards. It repeatedly happens that stones come in their path; they appear to be obstacles in their journey. But the spring does not attempt at removing the stone and then continue its journey. Instead, it carves its way ahead alongside of the stones. As if, it is giving the message: do not collide with the obstacles, instead continue your activities by keeping away from them. Similarly, we see in the world of animals, that now and then they have some issue of dispute. But it always happens that for a short time, they growl or gore. But very soon, they become normal as if nothing had happened. In the same manner, man has to live in his society. In social life many a times one meets with unpleasant experiences. However, he should always make this unpleasantness temporary. It should not be allowed to stay permanently. The study of the universe shows that here each thing gives something to others without taking anything for themselves from others. For instance, the sun unilaterally provides light to the inhabitants of the world, but it does not ask for any price for it. The air continuously supplies the oxygen without taking any compensation for it. Similarly,
