be affectionate | swamiji

Once a person complained to me, “In my office all my colleagues are totally uncooperative”. I told him, “Be affectionate to all. This will surely bring about a drastic change.” After some time he came to me and said, “As per your advice I was affectionate towards all my colleagues. Yet none of them cooperates. All of them are mere cheats!” I then pointed to him, “I advised you to be affectionate to your colleagues and not just pose to be affectionate. This is the reason for your failure.” | HH Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji
