machine. According to the law of nature, the thinking process
of the mind functions smoothly only when the mind is free

The right person is one who concentrates on the 99%
he has and ignores the 1% he does not have.

The present age is a quite different age. One characteristic
of the present age is decentralization of the economy. Due to
this phenomenon every person has got the opportunity to
earn money and lead a comfortable life. There are no deprived
persons in the real sense in this age. In earlier times deprivation
was common, but in the modern age affluence is common, the
only difference is that some people live in more luxury while
others less. This phenomenon is a great blessing of God, as it
gives the opportunity to everyone to live in gratefulness. But, due
to the above dog culture, people are still living in ungratefulness.
They ignore the 99% they possess and are conscious only of the
1% they are deprived of.

The right person is one who concentrates on the 99% he has
and ignores the 1% he does not have. In Quranic words, such a
person will live in the spirit of hamd, or gratefulness to God.
