Premanand Maharaj Ji
My child wants an expensive phone to earn respect among friends. What should I tell them?
Respect comes from virtue, not a phone
Respect comes from good qualities, not from a phone, so if you keep a mobile, keep a small one. Even a golden phone would earn no one's bow. A virtuous person who serves the country or reforms society has everyone's folded hands.
If you must keep a mobile, keep a small one, not a big one. Respect comes from good qualities. Does it come from a mobile?
