Have you served her faithfully day and night in her ailment? Do you have the indomitable courage to protect and preserve the honour of your wife even by risking your life in a situation of crisis? 155 Man, if you are a businessman, just consider whether you have been just and fair to your customers. Take care that you do not make money through black marketeering. Never deceive your customer. Do not keep your eye fixed upon your own profit; give due attention to the convenience and satisfaction of your customer also. Show what you profess, and give what you show. Take care that you do not bring any blot to the honour and honesty of your country by your unfair business dealings. Man, if you are a teacher, just consider whether you have faithfully performed your duties towards your pupils. Take care to give them good training along with good education. Do not poison the minds of your pupils by your own narrow ideas and thoughts. You have to raise the morals of your students by your own good conduct and character. You have been entrusted with the heavy responsibility of preserving and promoting the conduct and character of the coming generations. Children at the early stage are merely clay moulds. You can shape them, if you like, after Rama, Krishna, Mahavira, Buddha, Gandhi or Nehru. You have to make them good citizens.
