  • Are we satisfied when we get what we want?

    August 18th, 2023

    Whatever we want in life, even if we get it, can we be happy after getting it?  We have many desires, one gets fulfilled and the other comes in front.  We can never be satisfied.  When our desires are fulfilled then we start craving for more.  We always consider the happiness of others more than our own.  It is human nature to always compare oneself with others.

    There was a king who was very fond of traveling.  Whenever he felt like roaming, he used to ride his horse and go towards the forest.  One day while roaming in the forest, he saw a monk.  The one who was dancing engrossed in his tune on the banks of the river.  He didn’t care about anyone.  The king stayed there for some time and went back to his palace.  The next day when the king went out for a walk, he felt like going back to see that monk.  And he went and sat on the bank of the same river.  Today he was seeing that the monk came to the bank of the river dancing.  He was rolling a lot on the sand lying on the bank of the river.  He was just singing hymns to God.  The monk was so happy that the king was surprised to see him. The monk was saying, God, you did not give me food today, have you forgotten?  It doesn’t matter when you remember me, give it. The king thought that he has never seen such a happy monk who is not worried about anything.

    The king said to the monk, will you come to live in my palace?  Here you don’t even get food everyday. The monk got ready in one go.  The sage said, tell Rajan, where do you want to go?  The king was surprised to see this action of the monk.  The king thought that the monk would say that I am fine in this forest only, what about us, we roam around like this.  They eat whatever they get.  We sages don’t have any house.  But the monk did not say all these things even once.  Now the king’s mind started doubting about the monk.  Is she a hypocrite, she didn’t refuse me even once.  Will he harm us by going to the royal palace?  But what if he dies, he was a king.  If the monk had felt like going, then it would not have been in his interest.  He quietly brought the monk with him to the palace.  The respect that the king had for the monk had already ended.

    The monk started living very happily after coming to the palace.  There he used to get good food and good clothes.  The bedroom was very comfortable to sleep in.  But his habit did not improve even after coming here.  He would have been in his fun as before.  In the same way, he used to worship God and dance a lot.  Along with him, all the people of the royal court danced happily.  But the king began to grumble in his heart.  The king thinks what is he worried about now.  You get good food, you get good clothes.  Why doesn’t it dance now?  8 months passed while doing this.  The king could not tolerate the habits of a hermit at all.  One day the king said to the monk.  You have been living in the palace for so many days, do you feel the difference between you and me.  Then the sage said that there is a lot of difference between you and me.  The king asked what?  Didn’t get married then, I will answer you at the same place where I used to live.

    The king thought that it is good that I will leave him in the forest. Next morning, the king went to the forest with the monk. Both went and sat on the bank of the same river. Now the king asked, tell me what is the difference between you and me? Then the monk said, I will tell in the afternoon. It is afternoon, the king asked back. Then the monk said, I will tell in the evening. The king said that I should not go back to my house. My wife has children in the palace. My subjects are in the kingdom. I have to think a lot about all this. Then the monk said, this is the difference between you and me. There are no people in my life whom I can think of. I am not worried about food, if I get it, I will eat it. I have no respect. If people are happy with me then it is okay, if they are not happy then it is okay. I don’t care about anyone. Earlier also I was very happy on the banks of this river. It was your decision to take him to the Raj Mahal. When you asked me to walk and I got ready at once. I read the thoughts that arose in your mind at that time. Still I went with you. Why did you suffer for so many months with me? He would have told me this on the first day itself.

    Now the king started realizing his mistake. The king said Maharaj, I made a big mistake. i misunderstood you Then the monk said no problem, this is the irony of our mind. We do not understand the value of that thing which we get easily. As soon as we get that thing it becomes insignificant in our eyes. Gets upset. That’s why before accepting everything that is affecting you more in life, ask your mind that how much do you need that thing.

  • What to do when someone doesn’t like you?

    August 18th, 2023

    everything. Similarly, not every man is happy even with man. If there is something like this in your life, someone is not liking you, then it doesn’t matter, it is not necessary to be liked by him. People like the person he is like. If someone is more sad, then he likes the other person sad because he sits and listens to him and tells his own. If someone is very funny, then he likes the person in front of him to be funny. If there is a person who speaks less, then he does not like the person who speaks more. We also choose the person according to our choice. When we make someone a good friend, it is only of our choice.

    teaching his disciples. Then a person came and fell at the feet of the saint. The saint picked him up with love and asked, tell me what is the reason for your sorrow? The person said, I am a very sad person in this world. Some of my friends don’t like me at all. He doesn’t even talk to me nor does he go anywhere. Then the saint asked, your wife, children, your family members all like you, don’t they? The person said yes to him. Then the saint told that person to come with me. The saint took the man in front of a garden. After going there, the saint told him that there are many beautiful flowers in this garden. Look how beautiful flowers are in this garden. You do one thing for me, just go straight, pluck the flowers which you find more beautiful. While plucking flowers, keep one thing in mind, do not pluck the flowers at the back. You can break the one who is in front of you. The person said ok and he entered the garden.

    Slowly that person was moving forward looking at the flower. And I kept thinking, I will go ahead and see nice flowers, I will take one of them for my saint. He reached the end of the garden in no time. Now all the withered flowers were visible. But he had no choice. He plucked one of those flowers. And came back to the saint. Then the saint said, being such a beautiful flower, why did you pluck this resident flower. Then the person started speaking, I thought if I go further, more beautiful flowers will be seen. That’s why I kept moving forward but in the end there was nothing. As per your command, I could not turn back. That’s why I had to bring you this flower.

    Then the saint explained to him, our life is also like a flower. Flowers named relationships, friends, brothers and family have blossomed in it. Not all of these are to our liking. With some we talk very little, with some a lot, and with some we mingle a lot. While passing through the path of life, when people choose friends for themselves, sometimes they also make mistakes. Like you left good flowers and chose stale flowers. The rest of the flowers have not withered because of this behavior of yours. They haven’t stopped smelling, have they? Similarly, many times such things happen in our life, which keep distracting us inside. But we should ignore all these and become like flowers. If someone breaks them, they are useful to him. If not broken, then they are spreading fragrance in their place. You too be happy in your life. It is okay if someone befriends you, it is okay if they don’t.

    The person had understood the words of the saint. He went back to his home after saluting the saint. He never felt sad after that day.

  • How to bring peace in your family?

    August 17th, 2023

    Our home family is like our temple. Just like a clean body is needed to enter the temple, similarly, while entering the house, if we leave outside worries outside, then perhaps we can change a lot for the peace of the house. Many times it happens that we like the talk of outsiders more than our family members. We find solutions to problems with family members outside. Then the outsiders get a chance to disturb the peace of our house.

    Husband wife, their four children and their parents lived in a family. The wife used to serve her mother-in-law and father-in-law a lot. She takes care of mother-in-law and father-in-law as much as she takes care of her children. Days started passing slowly. Now the children had also grown up a bit. The wife started coming out and she had made many friends. When she used to see her friends that she did not do any household work. Her mother-in-law used to do all the household chores. Friends also taught her that why do you keep beating all day. At least care about your life too. Get up and sit and talk with us. Roam around with us. The words of friends encamped in the wife’s mind. For some days the wife’s mind was restless. Now he did not like working at home. Whenever her husband came from work, she used to complain about his mother to her husband. She used to say that my life has become completely useless by living here. Husband started getting worried after listening to her daily expenses. One day he decided that I will leave this house and go away. And he left the house in the dark night.

    While going in the dark, he saw a cottage in which there was a little light. The night was already over, so he thought that this should be the rest today. He slowly went inside the hut, went inside and saw a saint doing penance there. There was complete peace in the cottage. He felt very good coming inside the cottage. When the saint opened his eyes, he found him sitting in front of him. The saint asked him the reason for coming. So he put his whole story in front of the saint. And told the saint that I also want to stay in your shelter. The saint said okay, I will teach you the method of meditation, by doing which your mind will become calm.

    Now the saints started making him sit in meditation everyday. He used to sit with his eyes closed but he did not feel like it. Again and again he remembered his children, old parents and wife in front of his eyes. He missed the food made by his wife a lot. He was also remembering the love of his parents. One day he told the saint that what should I do, I do not understand. Whenever I sit with my eyes closed, my family comes in front of me.

    Then the saint explained to him, there are many bondages in our life even if we don’t want to. Many of those bonds are such that it is difficult to forget them. The biggest bond is that of family. Some relationships are important in our life. Sometimes we think that we can live without them but we cannot. Leaving all the pleasures of the world and becoming a saint is not such an easy task. Only one can become a saint who breaks the bonds of all the illusions of this world. Where we have got life, small things will happen there. If there has ever been a thorn in our family, then we should try to remove it. Will we be able to walk if we let the thorn in the leg remain?

    If you don’t solve your family’s problem by sitting on your own and go to the people with it, then people will get a chance, won’t they? Whenever there is such a problem in your family, you all should sit together at one place and solve your problem yourself. The outsiders will all give their own opinion. Those people in the family who have more differences should sit together and speak their mind. It is necessary that there should be one person in your family whose words are accepted by all. Because where there is a head, the house runs. Choose such a man as the head of your family who does not think only of himself but thinks of everyone. Family members should work together so that there is never any estrangement. Quarrels of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are seen in Akshar family. The mother-in-law should also understand that even if the daughter-in-law comes, she should cooperate in her work. The daughter-in-law should also not expect too much work considering the age of the mother-in-law.

    Never take your family matters out of the house. Even if there is a small tip in your house, then keep it till your house. Do not stop talking in small matters. Because when you stop the dialogue itself, then how will the problem be solved. Not all people in a family are the same. Some are very hardworking and some are less. Some talk more and some talk less. Some are gossipers all the time, and some are unheard of after listening to things. That’s why elders say that if you want happiness and peace at home, then try to forget the things that happen.

  • Are you also troubled by sleep disorders?

    August 16th, 2023

    In this stressful life, there will be only a few people who are able to sleep peacefully. Do you know what is the reason for this? How many things are there in our daily life that cause our mental stress. All day we keep thinking something or the other. The thoughts which end with the origin of your mind, those thoughts do not remain in the subconscious mind. But the things you think all day capture our mind.

    Just like when an animal snatches food from each other, then takes it in solitude and eats it, similarly our mind practices all the day’s accumulated things in private at night. How will he sleep today when the mind works at night?

    All this problem is our own. In today’s era this problem has become very big. Big pharmaceutical companies are collecting a lot of money by making this medicine. Dr is charging his fees. These medicines are going into our body and causing new diseases. We see poor laborers in the world around us who work hard all day and sleep at night without bed. After working so hard, he does not have time to think anything else. They also feel very hungry. And sleep is also very loud.

    Due to lack of sleep, a lot can happen in our life. Like worrying about your family, thinking about your financial condition, thinking about your beauty, thinking about your friendship, etc. But whatever you think you can’t get those things out of your mind.

    Once upon a time, a husband and wife were going from one village to another. On the way he saw a woman very helpless. Both his hands were bent due to illness. But the woman was young and very beautiful. His dark thick hair was hanging till his feet. Suddenly the clip that was in his tied hair opened. Now the hair flew away and started coming till the mouth. The woman was pleading with everyone, someone should tie her hair. No one was paying attention to him. The wife told the husband that perhaps this woman is deliberately pretending. But the husband understood that it was not a drama. You put the clip on the woman’s hair. The wife was very angry. But after a few days everything was fine. After many years, the wife remembered that thing and taunted her husband. The husband had forgotten all this. But till today the wife was still angry with her husband’s actions inside. From time to time this thing used to come in his mind. Because wife I thought about that thing for a long time. And this thing deepened in her mind. Whenever the wife remembered this, she could not sleep.

    This is the nature of our mind, we want to forget the thing, it sits more in our mind. If a man refuses to think of something, then even if you do not want to, then that thing keeps coming in your mind all day. Like in those husband and wife, the husband helped that woman, and forgot that thing. But the wife could not forget. Because while helping that woman, there was no misconduct in her husband’s mind. But the wife was misunderstanding this. So she could not get out of her thoughts.

    We all must have heard that a clean bed, a full stomach, can give us good sleep. That’s not enough for good sleep. Just like we clean the bed before sleeping, in the same way, if we clean our mind, then we will definitely get good sleep. Always use one word in your life in your mind, that is, let it go man. If you learn to repeat this word, then no worries will seem big to you. No problem will be complicated for you.

  • how to respect yourself?

    August 16th, 2023

    People said I am very good, people said I am very bad. People said that I am selfish, people said that I am a very good person, I am useful to everyone. People said that earlier I was good, now I have become bad. People said that I was bad earlier, now I have become good. Why did people say because you gave people a chance to say. When people were speaking, you kept thinking yourself like that. You kept doing everything as people said. Even if you have worn some nice clothes, thinking what people will say? You are feeling like dressing up a lot today, yet you stopped yourself what people will say. Today you wanted to walk hand in hand with your life partner, then you stopped yourself thinking what people would say.

    Those who care about people in everything, have they ever thought that people will keep on saying something. As long as you keep walking with people out of fear, then the decisions of your life will also be taken by people. People’s words have so much power that they can change the course of your life.

    Someday you are very sad then why don’t you think what people will say? And why are the people who used to interrupt you on every matter, not asking you why you are so sad today? do you need anything can i be of any help to you?

    We care so much for people that sometimes it happens that we are going to take a big decision of our life in our favor, even at that time we kill our happiness for the happiness of people. Because we think we have to live among these people, then why should we give them a chance to speak? But sometimes this thing can be very harmful for you. Yes, it is right that living in the society, we should never do bad to the people of the society. But not so much that all the time do bad things for yourself.

    We must have read a story from childhood. Once Lord Shankar was going to visit Kailash with Mother Parvati. Lord Shankar made Kailash Parvati sit on Nandi. Shankar Bhole, you will not be able to walk so much, you will get tired. When people went a little distance, they started saying that being a woman, she herself is sitting on Nandi and is making her husband walk. After listening to the people, Shiva brought down Parvati and climbed up himself. People who went a little distance started saying that the poor wife is walking and this man is sitting on Nandi. After listening to the people of Shivani, Mother Parvati was also made to sit with them. Then both started walking ahead and someone said that look how this old Nandi will bear the weight of both of them. These people don’t even have that much sense to show some mercy to the old. Shankar and Parvati both got down from Nandi. Then Shiv Shankar started saying to Parvati, have you seen the world today?

    Shiva says people will not leave you under any circumstances. The one who has the same culture, the one who has the intelligence, he will guess that much. And when we are living in this world, we get to hear everyone’s words. We should listen to everyone’s words, but listen to your heart first. If your mind testifies to do that thing, then only do it. Many times it is seen that those people who do not have the ability, they also drown themselves in debt due to the appearance of what people will think. Your friend got his son married with great fanfare, your friend throws a party in a nice hotel. Your friend wears very expensive clothes. Your mind gets distracted seeing all this. And you start making every effort to do all this. This is the biggest truth of today’s world. That’s why our new generation of today is going on the path of downfall. We don’t think even once that we are doing wrong or our friends are doing wrong for what we want to do by seeing others. We just have to see and see.

    There are some people who live according to their principles. People also say many things to him but he does not pay attention to the words of the people. Such people do something in life. We must have seen many very rich wear such clothes which we cannot imagine. But they don’t care about anyone. He is always focused on his target. They don’t care how many entertainment activities are going on in the world. He does not do all these things because people consider him as an ideal man. Such is their nature.

    So why don’t we try to respect ourselves. Why should we strangle our desires. Why should we weaken our position by showing support to people. Why don’t we adopt a simple life and give peace to our mind as well as to our family members.

  • What kind of happiness do you want in life?

    August 15th, 2023

    To gain something in life, you have to lose something. We think that whoever has a lot of money is happy. But not at all like that. Despite having everything, sometimes a man becomes completely alone. And sometimes his thinking does not allow him to enjoy his wealth.

    A family of twelve people lived in a village. The family was going through a lot of poverty. There was a very beautiful girl in that family. Whose name was Sophia. When the girl grew up a little, the parents got her married to an old man. Sophia did not even know the meaning of marriage properly. His daughter will be happy. He will get all the happiness which he could not provide to his daughter. That old man was very rich. But he used to be ill all the time. At last one day the old man became dear to God. And now Sophia was all alone. There were many servants in the house but her world had changed.

    The father thought that Sophia should be married again to another rich man. But this time Sophia flatly refused. Marriage had now become a meaningless bond for her. Because marriage had given her only sadness. Friends used to explain to her a lot that this time you should marry a young man. So she used to say, does the young never get old? Can he be immortal? Then who doesn’t have any answer.

    Sophia used to be completely alone in her house. She used to be very sad. She did not talk to anyone. Now she started focusing on the cleanliness of her house to engage her mind. She started keeping an eye on the work of the servants. One day while massaging her feet, her maid said that your anklet is very beautiful, just put some ghungroos in it. Lo. Sofia thought she is right in saying how is Bina Ghungroo’s anklet? The very next day he sent his anklet to the goldsmith and got the anklets fitted.

    Now when she used to walk, there would be a sound of Ghungroo. The servants would have been alert after hearing the sound. Once upon a time there was a doubt in her mind that the maid asked me to get anklets so that I could not catch her stealing. She opened the anklets of her anklets. Now if she walks then there is no sound. One day she caught her maid misbehaving with the servant. Then the next day she caught stealing household goods. She fired all the workers. And hired other servants. Everything went well for a few days. Then those new servants also started doing like old servants. He also fired those servants. She had to do all the household chores herself. She was completely alone even at home. Now he was getting more stressed than before. Couldn’t understand what to do. Either compromise with the situation or live your life like this.

    One day a friend of hers came to her. Seeing him alone, he also started worrying a lot. We have to lose something to gain something, he explained to Sophia. You have nothing even though you have everything. You are left all alone in this big mansion. Then Sophia said what should I do? Should I tolerate the cheating of the servants? Or see theft happening in my house? Her friend explained that now you have no other option. That’s why you have to compromise with them. Saying this her friend went away. That night Sophia could not sleep the whole night. The very next day he put anklets in his anklets. And again hired new servants.

    Man can never be satisfied. Even if his wishes are fulfilled and even if they are not fulfilled. If we want to enjoy the real life, we should be happy in ourselves. If we run our eyes everywhere, we can never be happy. Small things can give us happiness and small things can give us sorrow. Now it is our choice how to be happy.

  • Account book of our deeds!

    August 14th, 2023

    There are some people who remain despised since birth. They never get love from anyone. Poverty welcomes them as soon as they come into the world. They are never able to fulfill any of their wishes. Do you know why this happens? It is the result of your accumulated karma. Which you have been accumulating from birth to birth. This karma is riding on us like a debt. Just like you take a loan from someone, he asks for his money from you, in the same way we have to bear the debt of our actions. Have to take off.

    If there were no enjoyment of these deeds, then why does a child die in the mother’s womb itself? Some die as soon as they are born. Some are born sick. When he was born, he did not commit any sin, then why this with him? Our body is made up of our many good and bad deeds. The result of good deeds is birth in a good family, good education, good living, good family, good manners. etc. While the result of bad deeds is birth in a lowly family, poverty, wrong rituals, diseases, etc. have to face many sorrows.

    If we want to destroy the past sins and enjoy the happiness of the next life, then we have to take a lot of precautions. Never give wrong teachings to anyone. Never take away anyone’s rights. Help others according to your ability. If someone is hurting you, doing injustice to you, deceiving you, hurting your self-esteem, then don’t say anything to him. Because God is watching everything.

    Everything is imprisoned in his camera. The day God sees the CCTV footage, the thief will automatically be caught. If you decide this, God will leave justice to you. If you leave it to God, he will understand how much he has to pay.

    For what purpose has God sent us here?

    God has sent us here to enjoy our previous birth and to improve in the next life. Once upon a time, a husband and wife used to live happily in a small village. Husband’s eyesight was very weak, he used to do his daily life work with great difficulty. He stayed in his house and went out somewhere with his wife. One day he thought that life would pass like this, why not go on a pilgrimage for a few days. Husband and wife were very pious. By going on a pilgrimage, he had a good darshan of God. Suddenly the husband and wife got separated from each other. Even after searching a lot, the wife could not find her husband. The wife tried everything but she failed. She returned home with a sad heart. She used to think only one thing everyday, O God, we were better at home than this. But he never kept any shortcoming in the worship of God. Now she used to remember God even more. As soon as the worry of the future comes, she starts getting scared that how she will spend her life alone. Because God had not even given him any child.

    The wife’s rule was that when she made breads for herself, she would feed the first two breads to the cow. Kept aside for the dog, and always gave two breads to a beggar. Still the same rule was going on. For a few days, she was seeing that the beggar who used to come to buy bread, used to ask for two more breads from him. The woman used to think that her stomach is not full, I will give it. The beggar always used to say this thing while taking bread, my work is in his hands, his work is in my hands. But he never paid attention to the words of the beggar. One day when she heard the beggar’s sentence, the woman got angry with the beggar. Women thought that from now on I will not give bread to this beggar. When the beggar came the next day, he refused to give bread. The beggar said again, my work is in his hands, his work is in my hands. It doesn’t matter friend, both of us will be hungry today, ask among women, for whom else do you take bread. Then Kari said, an old man has been in my shelter for many days. It doesn’t matter if he didn’t give bread, maybe this is God’s wish today.

    Having said this, the beggar turned back to leave. Doubts were now starting to appear in the woman’s mind. So she followed him. After going a long way, the beggar entered a small hut. When the woman peeped inside slowly, she was surprised. What was this? It was her husband. Now she went inside the hut and stood in front of her husband. The husband was very happy to see her. She also brought the beggar to her house. On the same day a saint also came to her house to take alms. The saint seemed to be very learned. He got separated from you for a few months. Due to his good deeds, he started getting bread made by you. And because of the bad deeds of the beggar, he kept begging for so many years. Now his bad deeds also ended.

    The beggar who used to tell you everyday, do what you want in his hands. He fed your husband by begging for food for so many days. As a result of that you got your husband. And the result of the bread you gave to the beggar for so many days, the officer got your refuge. In this way the account of our deeds is completed. Even God leaves us only after recovering his interest.

  • how to calm your mind?

    August 14th, 2023

    Have you ever thought that even if you remain silent, your mind keeps on saying something.  We keep thinking about something or the other all the time.  They do one thing and think something else.  Sometimes about the past, sometimes about the future.  But what about thinking about the past?  And also about the future.  The future has to be shown by doing, not by thinking about it.  If you have a plan to do something, keep it in your mind.  That’s a different matter.

    But if your mind constantly thinks negative things, then it is very important to stop it.  Because it can disturb your peace.  can make you weak.  can distract you from your goal.  Can weaken your relationship.  Can make you fearful or grumbling.  The one who has more upheaval going on in his mind, it can be known from his face only.  The pupils of his eyes do not remain fixed at all.

    For this, for millions of years, our elders, sages and saints have thought out a very good idea.  Meditate for a while.  But when your mind is disturbed, your mind does not even meditate.

    Suppose the parts of your body move the way you move them, don’t they?  When you raise your hand, only then the hand is raised.  When you move your feet, only then your feet move.  Your lips open only when you want to laugh.  You want to cry only then your eyes water.  Sleep comes only when you want to sleep.  If you want to wake up, you will wake up.  You have control over all the parts of your body.  Then why not on the mind?  Why have you left it open?

    Practice this thing every night that I am an almighty soul.  Whatever I want will happen.  If you want that no sorrow should even come close to you.  So it will have less effect on you.  And if you keep remembering your sorrows all the time, then they will increase.  You must know that whatever we think about starts to fructify.  If you think about happiness, its circle will be formed around you.  And if you think about the despair of sorrows, then their scope will increase

    For example, you have eaten some food that upsets the balance of your digestion.  So you will think twice before eating it again, right?  Just like that, when any such thought that bothers your mind, you must think once before taking it inside yourself.  As we know that eating it will spoil our health, even then sometimes we eat it.  Similarly, we also know that thinking about which thing will make our mind restless, yet we think.  For example, if there is indigestion after eating, we take measures for it.  Similarly, we have to take measures to cure the disease of the mind.

    Once upon a time there used to be a very learned monk in a village. His knowledge was discussed far and wide. Even the kings of that country knew how learned the monks were. The king was always restless and worried. One day the king thought why not meet him with a scholar. Early in the morning the king came out of his palace without speaking to anyone and went to the beggar. He told the monk what trouble he was going through. After listening to the king, the beggar said, I can solve your problem, but you will have to come tomorrow morning in Brahma Muhurt, that too alone. And yes remember to bring your mind with you. The king did not understand his words. The king started sleeping, is the mind also beyond the body? But the king had no choice, so he reached him again the next day. On seeing him, the beggar said, give me your restless mind, I will calm it down and give it to you. The king again started thinking that how can I take out my mind? The saint understood the king’s problem, he told the king that your mind is inside you, isn’t it? Then the king nodded in yes. The saint said to the king, now sit with your eyes closed and find your troubled mind inside you. The king could not understand the words of the saint at all. Still, he sat down after listening to them, closing his eyes. When the king closed his eyes, many thoughts started coming in his mind. He was trying very hard to find his restless mind inside himself. A few hours passed like this, the monk asked, have you found your troubled mind? The king said no. Similarly, the beggar called the king to him for three to four days, and used to ask him to sit in meditation every time. Even after doing this for a week, the emperor could not find anything like mind inside. Then the beggar explained to the king, there is no organ called mind inside our body. The mind is just a bundle of our thoughts. There is a queue of files in the office. Which we collect by not working on time

    Sometimes someone said some stinging thing, or a mountain of great sorrows fell on you.  These are all laws of nature.  Happiness and sadness are two sides of the same scale.  The one who maintains balance in these can be happy in life.  So whenever your mind is restless, think for once, let it go.  The world doesn’t stop for anyone, it doesn’t wait for anyone.  One has to try to walk with the world.  Otherwise we will be left all alone.

    That’s why never think that we felt bad about this thing, that thing hurt us. I don’t feel like working today. Today I do not feel like talking to anyone. Today I do not feel like eating at all. The mind is nothing, it is all your negative thoughts. Those who have been created by you only. By giving the name of mind to those thoughts, you become free.

  • do you give up easily?

    August 14th, 2023

    Life is a playground. Seeing a player more skilled than you, never think that I will not be able to stand in front of him. No one is born the best. He has worked very hard to reach this point. And if we work hard only with the body, our mind does not support it, then our hard work goes in vain. That’s why you should always keep your mind connected with your heart. So that whatever you aspire for in your heart may command your mind that we must do this work.

    Two frogs used to live in a pond. One was fat and one was thin. Both of them grew up in this pond since childhood. In between, he also used to take a walk outside. One day both the frogs came out of the pond and went only a short distance. There he saw a boy milking a cow. They saw that the boy took out a lot of milk. Both of them were looking at her with surprise because they had never seen so much milk before. His life was spent only in the dirty water of the pond. Seeing so much white milk, his mind got greedy. He thought why not swim here today. And both of them jumped into the bucket together. After having fun in white milk for a long time, both the frogs thought that now it is getting evening, now we should go home. Both of them tried hard to get out of the bucket, the bucket was too big so they could not get out. Every time he tried to climb up, he would slip back and fall down.

    Both sat quietly for a while thinking what to do now. Meanwhile, the thin frog said to the fat one, brother, we have to go home but we are not able to leave here. For so long we were swimming inside the bucket. Now if we swim a little higher, then at least someone will see us and throw us out. Thinking of this, both of them started swimming back in the milk. It was too late but no one came to take them out. The fat frog was tired of swimming. He told the thin frog that now I will not be able to do it. I am very tired, my feet are hurting. Then the skinny frog said if you stop swimming you will drown. In this way your life is in danger.

    For a while the fat frog kept walking in the milk, at last he was defeated, and as soon as he saw it, he drowned in the milk and died. The skinny frog was saddened to see his friend die like this. He thought that if I stop swimming, I will also die. Thinking of this, he started running his feet fast. Due to the continuous beating of the frog’s feet, the amount of butter in the milk started rising. And the milk started getting thinner. In thin milk, it jumps quickly and sits on top of the butter layer. And takes another jump and comes straight out of the bucket. When he comes out, he doesn’t understand what happened to him today. His childhood friend left him today. If he too had stopped moving like his friend, he might have died too. It is good that I did not give up. He goes towards his house with a sad heart. After the departure of his dear friend, there was no one to play with him and no one to listen to him.

    One day while swimming he found another frog in the pond. With whom he started a friendship. He told all his past incident to his friend. And started telling his friend that never give up in life. If you start giving up then even God will not support you. And if you take a single step forward with high spirits, then God will walk with you. We are never defeated by external challenges, it is our inner weakness that defeats us. Sometimes such a phase also comes in life when we have come half way to success, standing there and looking at the way ahead, we feel that we will not be able to complete it. At that time the weakness of our mind starts stopping us from moving forward. In such a situation, we should never turn back. Because in the amount of time you travel backward, in that much time you will go forward. Time also supports those who support themselves.

    Never consider yourself weak in life. Because theft happens in the same house whose door is open. Not everyone has the courage to steal by breaking the lock. If you fall in the middle of the playground, people will run over you. Always protect yourself from people. Keep your spirits so high that even if you fall, you can get up and sit by the side.

  • do you think too much?

    August 14th, 2023

    There will be only a few people in this world who leave everything on time. Otherwise, every person keeps thinking about his past, present and future. Remembering his past, he cannot live his present properly. Nor can he foresee the future.

    There was a young boy who used to think all day long. If someone told him something, it would touch his heart so much that he could not think of anything beyond that. That incident would sit in his heart so much that he would start cursing himself and would also say bad things to God. All the time he was making this plan of Rahat, how to take revenge on the one who said this to me. He was living with stress and bad mental condition all the time. He himself was troubled by his habits but was unable to do anything for himself.

    One day one of his friends explained to him that there is a very big saint living in the nearby village, you go to him, he will solve your every problem. On the advice of a friend, the boy went to the saint. He prostrated at the feet of the saint and told about his bad habits. After listening to the boy, the saint went inside his monastery. The boy could not understand why the saints went inside after listening to his words. In a short while the saint came out of his monastery with water in an earthen glass in his hand. The saint asked the boy, can you tell how much this glass weighs? The boy said, I will be able to tell but not very accurate. The saint again asked what would happen if I stood holding this glass for an hour or two. The boy replied, maybe this will cause pain in your hand. The saint simply asked, what would happen if I stand holding it all day? Then the boy said that there will be a lot of pain in your hand. Due to this pain, your hand may also become numb. This pain may spread all over your body. Then the saint asked, will the weight of this glass increase if I hold it all day? The boy said no. Then the saint asked, then why would my hand be in so much pain? Then the boy said, from carrying this weight all day. Then the saint asked, then what should I do to get rid of this pain? So the boy replied The glass has to be kept down.

    Then the saint said, you have said absolutely right, such are the problems of our life, which we keep in our mind, then turmoil starts happening there. Then keep it for a few hours, then the mind starts getting heavy. And if you keep it for a long time, then the balance of your mind can deteriorate. If you keep it for two to four days, then the mind can also go mad. Then after all this, it may take you whole life to cure yourself.

    That’s why we should keep our worries in mind for a while. Thinking too much makes our mentality worse. We are not able to take any good decision. The day when excessive thoughts stop arising in our mind, that day we will get a chance to face the supernatural power of the universe. We will be able to take decisions of our life in a jiffy. We will be able to read people’s mind. By not paying attention to the nonsense of people, we will be able to reach our goal in life. No amount of worldly condemnation will deter us. No kind of obstacle will be able to block our path of progress. Then there is no power in the world that can stop us from being successful.

    We will look different in the group of our family members, friends, relatives. Those who used to hurt us by speaking bitter words, now they will also be yearning to be friends with us. Because Mon has that energy that introduces you to the mystery of creation. Which a failed person cannot see. Even if an opportunity comes in front of an unsuccessful person, he doubts it. He cannot take advantage of the opportunity because of thinking too much. Then when the opportunity passes, he remains beaten.
