The direction in which our life is headed depends on the choices we make at each and every step. These choices accumulate to form habits and it is our responsibility to ensure that we acquire only those habits which are progressive and beneficial to us individually and to the society as a whole.
A thought like following good etiquette originates in our mind and culminates in the physical expression of good etiquette. Such thoughts and actions that we experience collectively become our habits and eventually define the individuals that we become. Only when our habits are beneficial for the process of purifying our heart, we can begin to understand spiritual truths.
