By
daily doing such acts of kindness and sympathy, man develops mercy. Hatred
vanishes. His hard egoistic heart is gradually softened. He cultivates cosmic
love. His heart expands. He has a wider outlook on life. He tries to feel his
oneness with all beings. His old feeling of separateness on account of
selfishness and egoism is gradually thinned and eventually eradicated. He
learns that he can be happy only by making others happy, by serving others, by
helping others, by removing the sufferings of others and by sharing what he has
with others. The five great daily sacrifices teach man his relations with his
superiors, his equals and his inferiors.
Man
has no separate individual existence. He is connected with the world. He is
like a bead in the rosary. His whole life must be a life of sacrifice and
duties. Then only he will have rapid evolution. Then only he will realise the
supreme bliss of the Eternal. Then only he will free himself from the round of
births and deaths and attain immortality.
