Do you think it is important not to be swayed by every passing mood?

उत्तर
Yes, we should not be swayed by every passing emotion. But we are the sum total of our experiences. Whatever bitter-sweet experiences that occur do influence us. Latest researches. say that the food we eat, weather, clothes, the color around us, and punishing work schedules can adversely affect our moods. It would be ideal if we don’t allow external circumstances to influence our equanimity of mind and the ability to stay focused on our goals.
