DO NOT ENVY |
|
You may be blessed with every good trait and all good fortune. But the one
serious blemish of envy is enough to cast you into hell-fire. Envy makes hell for
the man who nourishes that feeling in his present life as well as hereafter. None has
grown richer by envying. No one has lost anything by not envying.
A simple truth, but we forget it when we see another's good fortune!
Alas, says the poet, that so many men purposelessly entertain envious thoughts, which only
cause pain to them without achieving anything! |
