Lessons From Buddha

According to Buddha........to be respected by other, levels or post is not necessary needed to gain respect. We must control our desires, be kind to others, respect others, intelligent, live with normal life and he or she will be respected by others. ( Isn't it like morale studies or it is understood that these are the criterias to be respected? )

Conclusion, most of Buddha's theories should be.........positive
