How to Create a Divine Society

1. Be stress free - keep your body, mind and spirit free from stress. It is not a one-time job; it is something that has to be done over and over again, like keeping your teeth clean; like dental hygiene.

2. Do something for society - do whatever little you can, and be committed towards it.

3. Keep prejudice away - drop prejudice from your mind and intellect; whether it is against another religion, caste, or gender.

4. Keep balance in your family-society and work-life - some people do so much social work and ignore the family. While some are so stuck with their family that their world does not go beyond the four walls of their home; both are not utilizing their full potential. Those who are confined to the four walls of their homes need to go out, make more friends and do some work for society. Those who are out all the time and not very nice to people at home, consider being more kind at home also. Thus, keep the work-life balance.

5. Have a vision, for yourself and a vision for society and hold on to it. It may be anything but keep it away from your profession, like writing a book, poetry, painting, singing, writing short stories. Be innovative in whatever way you can. Just keep that idea, and it will come up within you. So, keep one vision for yourself, and one for society - inspire people around you! There are a hundred reasons to be miserable, upset, and unhappy in life and in society. Coming out of it is a challenge. You should take up this challenge, "Come what may, I will move through all those negative clouds that surround me; like the planes that take off even in bad weather". You need to have that radar within you, which enables you to move through any negative cloud and create enthusiasm around you.

QNA WITH SRI SRI
FRIDAY, MAY 20, 2016

Q: Please give us a few practical tips for a husband to do every day to empower his wife.

Sri Sri Ravi Shankar: I am very inexperienced in this field (laughter!).

First, never step on the emotions of a woman. Second, encourage womenfolk to step out of their routine and comfort zone. Third, encourage some creativity and some acts of kindness. Four, let them take some time off to be quiet, and observe nature. We all take time off and go on vacation, but talking too much and talking all the time spoils the whole vacation. You come back tired, tanned and tired. Sometimes, one needs to take some time off to be quiet and spend a few moments in silence; meditate, and be with nature.
