Question

Freedom has assuredly given us a new status and new opportunities. But it

also implies that we should discard selfishness, laziness and all narrowness of

outlook. Our freedom suggests toil and the creation of new values for old ones.

We should so discipline ourselves as to be able to discharge our

responsibilities satisfactorily. If there is anyone thing that needs to be stressed

more than any other in the new set-up, it is that we should put in action our

full capacity, each one of us, productive effort—each one of us in his ownsphere, however, humble work, should now, be our watch-word. Work is

wealth and service is happiness is. The greatest crime today is idleness. If we root

our idleness, all our difficulties including even conflicts will gradually disappear.

Whether as constable or high official of the state, whether a businessman or

industrialist, artist or fanner or peasant, each one of us in discharging his

obligation to the state, is making a contribution to the welfare of the country.

Honest work is the anchor to which we should cling if we want to be saved

from danger or difficulty. It is the fundamental law of progress.
