HELP OTHERS AND HELP YOURSELF AS WELL!
If we have a good thought in mind we should act immediately. Our rational and forgetful mind will either use logic for not acting on a good thought (e.g. helping someone or donating money) or would just forget about it.
On the other hand, we should delay the gratification of sensual urges/pleasure. Thereby we gain control over our senses.
However we may at times indulge in the gratification of innocent pleasure to entertain ourselves or enjoy the worldly matters. As long as we are not attached to these matters and are in control of self, there are no issues.
May God bless us with the wisdom to have a fine balance between helping others and entertaining self!
Tathastu! Swasti Siddham! Amen! So Be It!
