Learn the habit of making your words pleasant
His value lies in his capability to purify, thought, word and deed. The three instruments he has - mind, tongue and hand - have to be sanctified to raise man to the highest level. The spoken word though it may be short and appears to be only a sound, has in it the power of an atom bomb. When a word a is spoken to a person sunk in despair, it charges him with elephantine strength. When a word of despair is spoken to a person extremely strong and happy, he slumps on the ground overcome by sorrow. Words can confer strength; they can drain it off. Words can gain friends; they can turn them into enemies; they can elevate or lower the individual. One must learn the habit of making one's words sweet, soft and pleasant. A person is judged by his words. Words inflict damage in other ways too.
