A Piece of Advice
1. Unlearn. Your religion, caste, identity were assigned to you by your family. Do not let these define you as an individual. You are much more than these.
2. Read. Read classics. Read all the religions like academic subjects and see for yourself if they are logical. Read philosophy. Read Nietzsche. Read Kant. Read science. The more you will read the more humble you will become. Reading takes time.
3. Fall in love and then raise yourself out of it. Regard yourself fortunate if your so-called soulmate dumps you. A Breakup can teach you so much that no religion can.
4. Bear the pain and suffering and I would say keep some of it with you all the time.
5. Respect and love your parents. Respect women. Remember your mother is a woman.
6. Empathize or at least try.
8. Have a hobby.
9. Appreciate art.
10. Expect less.
11. Meditate.

We are all chained to fortune: the chain of one is made of gold, and wide, while that of another is short and rusty. But what difference does it make? The same prison surrounds all of us, and even those who have bound others are bound themselves; unless perchance you think that a chain on the left side is lighter. Honors bind one man, wealth another; nobility oppresses some, humility others; some are held in subjection by an external power, while others obey the tyrant within; banishments keep some in one place, the priesthood others. All life is slavery. Therefore each one must accustom himself to his own condition and complain about it as little as possible, and lay hold of whatever good is to be found near him.
Seneca
