Against envy  | | Let a man esteem that disposition which is free from envy in the same manner as propriety of conduct.
Amongst all attainable excellences there is none equal to that of being free from envy to towards every one.
Of him who instead of rejoicing in the wealth of others, envies, it will be said he neither desires virtue nor wealth.
A version from Thirukural

| | | | | | 1. learn2earn (10540) | 1 month ago | I agree that being free from envy is one of the secret to a happy life in this world of unhappiness. Envy is one of the great hindrance to a lot of people to enjoy life. It is said that envy can cause someone to lose his good judgment about what is important in life. Therefore, it is always good to free ourselves with envy in our heart. Good day.

| | 2. Gongfuboy (130) | 1 month ago | I don't believe there is man who is completely free from envy other than those hermits because they just lead a solitary life, so let's pass them. I think the key lies in whether we can change the envy into another element, such as challenge or motivation. The fool like to be jealous of others' fame and achievements but do nothing to improve themselves, while the intellectual draw experience from others' instances to improve themselves. Sometimes, we are confused by envy and admire, anyway, they are not black and white that we can discriminate clearly. It depends on everybody's control of it, in all.

Guruindia (645) | 1 month ago | we can take as motivation to improve us. According to Thirvalluvar the envy on others is enough to destroy ourself,please read what he says further
To those who cherish envy that is enough. Though enemies fail that will bring destruction.
He who is envious at a gift madt to another his relations and even his clothing and his food will utterly perish.
You will loss your wealth and the poverty will come to you and it also take you to wrong ways.
The wealth of a man of envious mind and the poverty of an upright man will be pondered.
Never have the envious become great; never have those who are free from envy been without greatness.
