<br>Life can be disheartening. Things go wrong, people do wrong, we ourselves do wrong. Our best-laid-plans can be wrecked by one massive upheaval or thwarted by a million tiny bumps. Either way, we end up feeling like giving up. Amidst such discouragement that may come upon us from a hundred directions, a few Vedic Principles can be a vital morale-booster.<br>
