“When someone criticizes you, they do so because they believe they are right. They can only go by their views, not yours. If their views are wrong, it is they who will suffer the consequences.

If you lead a rational life, the good lies within you. Our concern should be our freedom, not titles and prestigious positions. The way to freedom is not to be too concerned about things we...
Feb 27, 2018•4 min•Transcript available on Metacast “Remember that for every challenge you face, you have the resources within you to cope with that challenge.
