Lot has to be learnt from life. We must keep our eyes and ears always open. Something will enter into our brain only then. If you close these two nothing will enter. How a cool breeze will enter thro' a closed doors?
The purpose of life is to help others. Once a person who reached hell questioned the God to show both hell and heaven. At first sight he found that both look like. The difference he is able to understand only at the time of need. At hell they never helped others whereas involving in their own sorrows and miseries. But, in heaven they are not bothered about their problems instead they helped others and thereby forgotten to remember even their own problems.
Help always. Give always. Don't think that u can see alone can be given. Love which can't be seen can also be given. The advantage is that it will return to you in mainfold.
