智慧的第一個跡象就是不要開始任何事情！根本不要出生！

錯失了第一個跡象，智慧的第二個跡象是：一旦你開始了某件事就要貫徹到底。

短視的人只尋求短期的利益。眼光深遠的人尋求的是長期的利益。

無論你自視智慧與否，你都不能逃離服務(seva)。因為服務給予人們立即的滿足與長期的功德。

196 INTELLIGENCE

Weekly Knowledge #196 Rishikesh 18 Mar 1999 India

The first sign of intelligence is not to begin anything! (Not to be born at all!)

Having lost this first sign, the second sign of intelligence is - once you have started something, see it through to the end.

The short-sighted ones look for short-term benefits. Far sighted ones look for long-term benefits.

Whether you consider yourself intelligent or not, there is no escape from SEVA (service), for Seva gives immediate satisfaction as well as long-term merit.
