In English
Once you have taken up a vow to do a good thing, you should not go back on it under any circumstance. You should fulfill it even at the cost of your life. This is the hallmark of a true devotee. In ancient times, people had this determination and became good souls. The had to spend their lives in forests feeding on leaves and fruits. Still they never gave up their adherence to the plighted word. In the devotees have to face a lot of trials and challenges, but they should not waver even a wee bit in their devotion to God.
