You are all children now. Perhaps you cannot observe all these vows, but you have to follow the few rules given below : Bow down to your parents every day. Worship God daily. Count Navkarmnntra 108 times daily. Do not steal. Do not smoke. Do not abuse others. Do not tell lies. Do not go to cinemas. Do not see the T. V. and Videos. Do not eat betel leaves and betel nuts. Do not chew tobacco. Avoid the use of powder, cream, nail polish, lipstick, eyebrow colouring and make-ups. You should take vows voluntarily before the Guru Maharaj to follow the above rules of conduct. Some times if unknowingly or by a mistake you break the vows, go to the Guru Maharaj and get a pardon and atonement.
