FRESH QUOTES

(& THOUGHTS)

ON

COMMITMENT

Human Happiness largely depends on one’s commitment to LIFE, to Values, to people around, to an identified Noble Goal and to one’s Nation. 

We often find many people committed to wrong causes, wrong people and wrong Values. These are people who are causing immense suffering to themselves and to the people around. 

At the same time, People committed to noble causes, to deserving people and to the prosperity of their nation and of other nations – are at the root of all HUMAN HAPPINESS.

The following 19 are my thoughts on Commitment. 20-23 are statements from Taittireeya Upanishad of India, which is said to be more than 10,000 years Old. Beyond that, Its Age is actually Unknown. But, the thoughts therein are the sort commitment to others that the Ancient people nurtured in their hearts.

Life is actually LIFELESS, without COMMITMENT. A Group of COMMITTED People can change the world totally. Today, the need is there to change the world totally.
