You would not have seen any plant which has only one root. Even a small plant has many roots in the form of small fibers and similarly even huge trees like Banyan tree or Ashwattha tree have many roots but they start from a single root. Similarly we are also children of Mother Nature, our life existence has many roots.
The greater the person, the deeper are his roots and the ordinary person has ordinary roots. What are these roots? These roots are the values of life which make our tree of life green, blooming, fruitful, fragrant, beneficial and attractive. Many elements together form life. The first root can develop in the form of food, in the form of thoughts, speech-behavior, good deeds, service, love, compassion, equality, devotion, faith, trust, self-restraint, purity, penance, non-violence, truth, non-stealing, celibacy, non-possession, charity, pranayama, doing any work with 100% attention. Detachment, awareness etc. are many roots or life values that build our personality. Their specialty is that if we start with one or develop any one with 100% awareness, then all the others also start developing and if there is termite infestation at one place, if any one bad habit flourishes in life, then all the roots or life values start collapsing. This is the real philosophy of life. Just as a tree is connected to fire, water, air, earth and sky, similarly we all are also connected to each other, individuals, families, society, nation, Panchabhutha and this entire universe. Therefore, in our progress, everyone gets happiness along with us and in our decline, everyone gets sorrow along with us. Keeping this philosophy in mind, let us start a new beautiful, happy and prosperous life.
