निम्न अनुच्छेद को पढ़कर दिए गए प्रश्न के उत्तर विकल्पों में से चुनकर दीजिए।
दूसरों को स्नेह देना और उनका सम्मान करना सामाजिक सफलता का एकमात्र मंत्र है। जीवन में सुख-शांति और उन्नति चाहने वाले प्रत्येक महत्वाकांक्षी को सबसे पहले यही सीख धारण करनी चाहिए। महाभारत के ज्येष्ठ पांडव युधिष्ठिर के राजसूय यज्ञ में कृष्ण ने लोगों के स्वागत की जिम्मेदारी ली और बदले में वे उस यज्ञ के सर्वाधिक पूज्य व्यक्ति माने गए। ईसा मसीह, गौतम बुद्ध, महावीर, महात्मा गांधी जैसे महापुरुषों में रंचमात्र भी अभिमान नहीं था। उन्होंने सदैव दूसरों को महत्व दिया और इस तरह से वे स्वयं महान बन गए। मान-सम्मान का मूल्य चुकाना असंभव है। बिना मान-सम्मान के यदि अमृत भी मिले तो वह विष बन जाता है और मानपूर्वक दिया गया विष भी अमृत बन जाता है। विद्यार्थी जीवन का प्रथम पाठ यही है कि गुरु के प्रति सच्चे सम्मान का भाव अपने हृदय में पैदा करें अन्यथा उनकी सारी विद्या निष्फल हो जाएगी।
