One of his neighbor always saw him. He saw that lots of people came to meet him yet Ram never got angry on anyone or had fight with anyone he met.

Neighbor thought to himself, “How he could always be so kind and helpful. How is it that he held no grudge toward anyone, and always was happy.”

So he got curious and wanted to know his secret for being happy always.



Once upon meeting him, he couldn’t keep his curiosity and asked, “Most people are selfish and unsatisfied. They do not smile as often as you do, neither are they as helpful or kind as you are. How do you explain it?”

Ram smiled and replied, “When you make peace with yourself, you can be in peace with rest of the world. If you can recognize spirit in yourself and in everyone then you will find it natural to be kind and well disposed to all.

When you are strong and calm inside, you help people because you can and you want to. You act from strength, not from weakness. Goodness is not a sign of weakness, as some people erroneously think. It can manifest together with power and strength.”, Ram replied
