Living a joyful life for ten years is far superior to living a life filled with worry, stress, and depression for a hundred years.

Nation Saint Shri Lalitprabh Sagar Maharaj of Udaipur stated that living a life full of joy for ten years is much better than a life burdened with worry, stress, and sadness for a hundred years. One may not be able to indulge in sweets every day, but life can always be made sweet. It depends on the individual whether they want to lead a bitter life or a sweet one. If we keep remembering bad times, we will become unhappy. Instead, if we start using time wisely, we will become happy. He mentioned that God lifts a hundred thousand people from the Earth every day, but our turn doesn't come. God feeds everyone, but doesn't make someone sleep hungry. Therefore, instead of complaining or begging to God, we should express gratitude and praise Him every morning.

Saint Pravar addressed a gathering during a lecture organized by the Shri Jain Shwetambar Jinayalaya Samiti in the courtyard of the Jain temple in Hiran Magri Sector 4 on Saturday. He emphasized that there is not much difference between us and other saints. All saints show the way to heaven, but other saints talk about attaining heaven in the next birth, while we can make this life heavenly. He urged people to consider every situation as a divine gift and to express gratitude instead of complaining. Comparing life to mathematics, he humorously mentioned the events related to different weekdays and how we should live happily, regardless of the circumstances.

He encouraged people to simplify their nature. People with a simple nature are liked by neighbors, whereas those with a harsh nature are disliked even by family members. He advised young individuals to focus on their character rather than appearance. If someone is fair, they may look good for a couple of days, but a calm person will bring happiness throughout life.

Saint Pravar also emphasized the importance of not harboring unnecessary grudges. He explained that many elderly individuals remain unhappy because they constantly hold on to unnecessary resentments. If elders stop giving unnecessary advice, then there will be no son or daughter who would want to live separately from their parents. He recommended that mothers should focus on God just as much as they focus on their daughters-in-law. If they shift their attention from other women to God, they can attain salvation.

He emphasized that one cannot change their color, whether fair or dark, as it is given by God. However, a person can become great by changing their way of life. He asked individuals to focus on their work rather than their appearance.

In conclusion, Saint Pravar advised everyone to live a life of happiness. He suggested that people should smile all the time. He explained that a person who smiles is considered alive, while a person who doesn't smile is no different from a dead person. If everyone here lives with a smile, then this city will not just be a city, it will become a laughing and smiling rose in full bloom.

The program included the presence of prominent members such as Sushil Banthia, Ashok Nagori, Chetan Lal Doshi, Hitesh Bafna, Dinesh Kothari, Dilkhush Pitaliya, Utsav Lal Jagawat, Ishwar Mehta, and Shantinath Yuva Mandal. The event concluded with a grand farewell ceremony and a special presentation of devotional songs and farewell hymns by devotees.
