NCERT Class 7th Honeycomb: Ch 1 Three Questions
Answers
What is the best time to do each thing?
Yesterday, if you had not taken pity on my age and given me a hand with digging these beds, you would have been attacked by that man on your way home. Then you would have deeply regretted not staying with me. Therefore the most important time was the time you were digging in the beds. Remember that there is only one important time and is Now. The present moment is the only time over which we have dominion. Who are the most important people to work with?
the most important person was myself, and the most important pursuit was to help me. Later, when the wounded man ran up here, the most important time was the time you spent dressing his wound, for if you had not cared for him he would have died and you would have lost the chance to be reconciled with him. Likewise, he was the most important person. The most important person is always the person with whom you are, who is right before you, for who knows if you will have dealings with any other person in the future.
What is the most important thing to do at all times? the most important pursuit was taking care of his wound. The most important person is always the person with whom you are, who is right before you, for who knows if you will have dealings with any other person in the future.
My most favorite answer given by the hermit is the answer to the first question as it seems very logical to me and time is the most important thing it is something you have but cannot buy irrespective of how much money you have. Hence, when we have time we must use it wisely.
