Achieve a kind of control over your tongue to talk sweetly. Some people have to go through penance for that. For them to talk sweetly is like taking rhubarb again. They just cannot talk sweetly…. In that sarcasm, they have a special pleasure. Try to say something sweetly. You can be humorous without being sarcastic. Humour is the best way.
What is the need to be sarcastic? There is no need at all. It is a sign of cowardliness, sarcasm. It is a sign that you want to hurt others, that you are not straightforward. So try to avoid sarcastic talking. If you are sarcastic, better tell your tongue to behave itself.

Thank you very much for giving the Upadesa (teaching) of Shri Mataji so sweetly.
I give hearty thanks. I really needed this lesson.
Thank you so much for sharing. This was really helpful in transforming the way in which I connect with my energy and balance myself. I still have a lot of work to do, but this gets me past a big step. I can’t thank you enough.
Thanks a lot for this beautiful message.
