Akram Youth Fear | June 2016 | Akram Youth | Page 11

Questioner: Whenever I go to write my exams, I am very afraid. What if I don't know any of the answers? Aptputra: Since you don't like exams, you fear them, otherwise examinations are not bad. Since you don't have an interest in studies, you are unable to prepare yourself appropriately. Hence you have this fear of exams, and fear of results. If you do take interest in your studies and be sincere to your goal of education, you will surely be successful. Even a spider makes many attempts to climb up the wall. The spider falls down several times, but it doesn't let go of its goal. It remains sincere to its goal, so it finally climbs up the wall and achieves its goal. Therefore, you must also remain sincere to your goal of studying and pursue it relentlessly, and you will be successful. Stop worrying about what the neighbours will say, or what your friends will say, or even what your parents will say. All of them are busy with their own worries. Let us see what Dadashri has to say about sincerity. Dadashri: Once you are sincere, you will win any challenge you face. When you are insincere, you will not win. So remain sincere in all your dealings and you will win the world. When you win the world, you will be able to attain salvation. No one in this world will allow you to achieve salvation (moksh) unless you have won them over. By multiplying your sincerity and with the Gnani's grace, you can achieve success in all that you pursue! Akram Youth | 11
