Purushottam - meaning Uttam Purush - Best Man
What are the qualities of man who is the best among men?
1. Wealth is essential. But this wealth should be earned or amassed with the intent of doing good work. The wealth should be without ego or pride attached with it.
The wealth should be readily used when needed and especially doing the work of God; that is being of use when needed for the poor and needy or for a good cause.
2. Strength : Strength of the body and mind are essential to do any work. More so when you are doing for the society as there will be many obstructions.
Strength of the body or physical strength is of utmost importance; hence the importance of yoga and fitness in our culture. It is pathetic when the mind and intent is to do work but the body is not co-operating.
3. Sad Vichar - Good thoughts, well meaning, purposeful, thoughts with good intent.
4. Courage - Veer bhogya vasundhara.. The brave shall reap the earth.
The Uttam Purush has to overcome the challenges of his adversaries which is not possible without valour.
5. Uttam vaani. Communication skills. It is said that Shabdon mein vazan nahin hota.. jo bolta hai usse shabdon mein vazan aata hai..
Words carry the weight of the speaker.
6. Company. Choose your company wisely. Arjuna chose Krishna over his army. This resulted in his victory.
7. Strength of the organisation. Sanghatan mein bal hai.
To achieve your goals you need the following kinds of strengths :
1. Financial
2. Physical
3.Organisational
4. Psychological
5. Will Power.
You can not control your circumstances, but you can train yourself to control or respond positively to any circumstances.
Lakshya : Goal : Setting of a goal makes one gain strength automatically; specially so if this goal is related to serving humanity; as it is the work of God. You get divine energy.
Life is a battle; fight it.
