The Fourth Group of Blessings
“Harmony in the Family Life”
“Harmony in the Family Life”
The fourth group of blessings contains Blessings Eleven to Fourteen. Nearly all of these concerns how we take care of our close family and therefore the grouping is sometimes referred to as “Harmony in the Family Life”. Nested between Group III concerning “Setting Oneself up in life” and Group V concerning “Becoming a pillar of society”, it is obvious that harmony at home is something we have to get right if we are truly to be of use to society at large. It is many an important businessman who has not managed to go as far as he ought in his career because of being upset or unfulfilled in his family life. This does not mean that it is necessary to have a husband or wife and children to make a success in one’s life — but if one does have one’s own family, than one has to fulfil one’s duty to them properly. In any case one must fulfil one’s duty to one’s parents.
