Yes you are right, but the quotation is said from a view point of making yourself better. If your outer circumstances are not what you expected them to be then you don’t have to go changing the outside world you have to begin with yourself & your outer circumstances shall have automatically changed.
we so called jain having every thing (mean tattva gyan )with our self/our side since birth, world is good but since than we are not able to make it better. do not waste our time to clean our home the time v r wasting spent it in cleaning our aatma by doing swadhaya
my own view for myself
Jai Jinendra Prakash ji,
This statement is very profoundl. A very basic example I may give; a sick person cannot help another sick person , you need a healthy able body to serve physically sick person. In the very same way if our outlook to our good, bad, or indifferent experiences is stable; not of a roller coaster of happy, sad, mad,satisfied etc. you are not affected by circumstances. With that equipoise mind, you work in the world outside, you sure will contribute positively and will make world a little better place. No religion teaches to be selfish or self centered. I hope, you will contemplate on this interpretation based on scriptures.
Jai Jinendra,
better mean what? world is always better we may or may not
