THE DOCTRINE OF ETHICS

 

To hold on to

unfriendly persons,

unmating spouse,

and an unwilling ruler

is utter ignorance.

from the book: "The Doctrine of Ethics" 

 

 Be Steady to Study

 

Dear Children

Do you know why you like to play much more than you like to study? Study requires steadiness. Games do not require it so much unless you wish to be proficient. As kids you would not have a steady mind. The mind jumps hither and thither and has no continuity of work. A child’s mind is compared to that of a monkey. A monkey jumps from one branch to the other of a tree, also jumps from one tree to the other. It has no permanent residence. It moves like a vagabond. It also has no permanent interests. It is not fit for long-term actions. It cannot even sit for a while and eat a fruit completely. It bites a bit here, a bit there, and throws away.

While you are children you have such a jumping, playing, shifting mind. Education is meant to bring steadiness to the mind. If you do not steady the mind, you cannot learn any theme. Steadying the mind is the first step to study of books. You study books but retain nothing, because it is not a steady mind. Be steady to study.
