A king is the one, who is the master of himself. You are just a slave of your

In Jain scriptures, the only complete man in the history of the world "Krishna"

Always safeguard yourself from rules and resolves. Machines can be switched

wealth, all these will surely cease to exist forever with your death.
The refined form of "human" body, mind, culture and consciousness that we
witness today is the result of countless unsuccessful efforts spanning over millions
of years. We cannot afford to waste such a precious life only on education,
marriage, children, chasing wealth and pangs of old age.
