—Swami Sivananda—
Do not wear gold and silver ornaments. Do not waste money in purchasing fashionable things. Be economical and simple.
Do not fight with your brothers, sisters and class-fellows. Do not speak vulgar words. Do not abuse anybody. Do not steal anything. Do not hurt anybody. Do not kill bugs and scorpions.
Do not waste time. Do not bite your nails. Do not smoke. Give up bad company.
Obey your parents and teachers. Study your daily lessons well. Be punctual in your school. Speak gently. Speak sweetly.
Wash your face and teeth as soon as you get up from the bed. Then take a bath. Pray to God. Sing God’s name. Then do other works.
Do not take food before washing your hands and cleaning your face. Do not eat too much sweets. Eat simple and nutritious food.
Do not depend much on others. Try to do all your works yourself.
Let these lessons become a part of your daily life. Then you will become a good boy or girl.
