It is great to be a listener, but we like it not to listen and go on intercepting and interrupting rather than listening. Good manners have a value of their own, but in this age of vested interest we have forgotten the moral lessons taken nor do now the guardians teach it.

A deep philosophical poem... sieved from the experiences of life

To stay conscious is the highest state of being living in this conditioned body. This beautiful poem is like Bhagwad Gita re-enacted. That is why it begins with the condition, 'One who knows'. When Arjuna asks Krishna how does a devotee walk, talk, sleep etc. and the Supreme Lord answers the same at several placed, but very specifically in verse 17.15 which I quote here: "Austerity of speech consists in speaking words that are truthful, pleasing, beneficial, and not agitating to others, and also in regularly reciting (giving discourses) in Vedic literature."
But the qualification is to stay conscious.All noble qualities of human character manifest only when one is conscious.
And what does this consciousness means,is a different topic although and can be best explained by our esteemed boloji contributor, Mr Satya Chaitanya. Refer: Living Gita.
