What are the eternal  truths in life ?

The truth is not only  the shining but

also the scorching heat of the Sun.

The truth is the constant rememberance

 and also applicable in every moment in life.

Even a billionaire can not purchase

his lifespan even for one second.

If the  same billionaire dies, the successors

 can not  keep his dead body at home and

 cremate that body in the burial ground

 which is outside of the town.

The billionaire and the begger 

both are same in the creamation ground.

Even the highly qualified and  most

experienced  doctors treat  him,

but  his final journey to the

other world can not be stopped.

Even if you are the Emperor to the

 entire world,  you have to know that

you are not the lord of your lifespan.

When the time comes, you will truly

 die the moment itself.

Even if you are the Alexander the

 great to the world, you can

 not conquer your death.

The time which is existing is most

valuable and there is no state

 or shape for tomorrow and the future.

Do not be overjoyed as you are billionaire

or the Emperor, when the death comes

all those wealth and the kingship

 will not follow with you.

Since the time is most precious,

you should not waste  every second.

Which you eat is transformed  and is split

on the ground (which is ruined),

but whatever  you give to others

(in the form of  charities)  that will be

credited into your account of spiritual merits.

The wealth or anything  (which you earned

or gained ) which is saved can definitely

 be slipped  away from you but

what you offer  and help to others 

that entire virtue  can be saved

 into your spiritual account.
