Difficult but possible to achieve, right?
Wanna peace? Follow them.
Believe me if you follow three wise monkeys of Mahatma Gandhi you will enjoy your peace of mind.
What are they conveying through their action? They are the pictorial maxim and together they convey the world famous principle.
Speak no evil
See no evil
There are various meanings ascribed to the monkeys and the proverb including associations with being of good mind, speech and action. In the Western world the phrase is often used to refer to those who deal with impropriety by turning a blind eye.
For those who know little about Gandhism-  it refers to the ideas and principles of Mahatma Gandhi which includes his, inspiration, vision and the life work.  It is particularly associated with his contributions to the ideas of tolerance and nonviolent resistance, sometimes also called civil resistance. 
Today I’m sounding too idealistic, no?

Love the monkeys. They have the right idea.
And the noble too. Most difficult thing in this world is to control one’s tongue. Misuse of tongue creates lot of problems.

Yes, of course 🙂
