Actions of your speech. Your actions matter. Be mindful of your actions.  Reflect on the seeds you are planting. 1. I am of the nature to grow old; there is no way to escape growing old. 2. I am of the nature to have ill health; there is no way to escape having ill-health. 3. I am of the nature to die; there is no way to escape death. 4.

I am the beneficiary of my deeds .      My deeds are the ground on which I stand.
