CONVERSATION WITH KRISHNA.

Me- I can’t find free time. Life has become hectic.

KRISHNA : Activity gets you busy. But productivity gets you free.

Me :why has life become complicated now?

KRISHNA : Stop analyzing life. Just live it. It makes it complicated.

Me : Why are we then constantly unhappy?

KRISHNA : Worrying has become your
habit. That’s why you are not happy.

Me: why do good people always suffer?

KRISHNA : Diamond cannot be polished without friction. Gold cannot be purified without fire. Good people go through trials, but don’t suffer.
With that experience their life becomes better, not bitter.

Me : You mean to say such experience is useful?

KRISHNA : Yes. In every term, Experience is a hard teacher. She gives the test first and the lessons afterwards.

Me : bcos of so many problems, we don’t know where we are heading…

KRISHNA : If you look outside you will not know where you are heading. Look inside. Eyes provide sight. Heart provides d way.

Me : why does failure hurt
more than moving in the right direction?

KRISHNA : Success is a measure as decided by others. Satisfaction is a measure as decided by you.

Me : In tough times, how do you stay motivated?

KRISHNA : Always look at how far you have come rather than how far you have to go. Always count your blessing, not what you are missing.

Me : What surprises you about people?

KRISHNA : When they suffer they ask, “why me?” When they prosper, they never ask “Why me?”

Me : How can I get the best out of life?

KRISHNA : Face your past without regret. Handle your present with confidence. Prepare for the future without fear.

Me : One last question. Sometimes I feel my prayers are not answered.

KRISHNA : There are no unanswered prayers.  Keep the faith and drop the fear.  Life is a mystery to solve, not a problem to resolve. Trust me. Life is wonderful if you know how to live.

દીકરી વહાલનો દરિયો

સોરાષ્ટ્રના એક ધાર્મિક જગ્યાએ રોડ પર દીકરીના પિતા મરી જતા, આંખોથી ટપકતા આંસુ સાથે, જતી ગાડીને હાથ કરીને ઉભી રાખે છે. જેમાં એક માણસે પોતાની ફિયાટ ગાડી ઉભી રાખી અને ઉતરીને પૂછ્યું કે શું થયું છે.
રડતા રડતા દીકરી એ જવાબ આપ્યો કે મારા પિતાજીનું અવશાન થઇ ગયું છે. અમને અમારા ઘરે મૂકી આવો તો સારું.
સમજદાર માણસે તેની ગાડીમાં પાછળ બેસાડ્યા એ સમયે દીકરી મોતને ભેટેલા પિતાના માથા પર હાથ ફેરવતી હતી. એ ગામ ગયા ત્યારે ઘરને તાળું લાગેલું હતું. મુકવા આવેલા માણસને ચાવી લઇ આવું કહી દીકરી ત્યાંથી નીકળી ગઈ. થોડા સમય પછી ગામને ઘટનાની વિગત મળતા આવીને મૃતદેહ બહાર કાઢ્યો.
તેમ છતાં ગાડીવાળા માણસ ઉભા રહ્યા હતા.

ગામના એક વડીલ માણસે પૂછ્યું "આપ કેમ ઉભા છો?" તેમણે જવાબ આપ્યો કે "મોતને ભેટેલા માણસની દીકરીને છેલ્લે મળીને તેને નમન કરીને જાઉં." વડીલે આશ્ચર્ય થી પુછ્યું "કોણ દીકરી?" આ માણસે જવાબ આપ્યો કે "મારી સાથે રોડ પર રહીને ઘરના આંગણા સુધી ગાડીમાં બેસીને આવી હતી તેની વાત કરું છું." ફરીથી વડીલે પુછ્યું "જોતા ઓળખી જાવ?" આ માણસે જણાવ્યું કે "હા, ઓળખુને!!"

આખરે તેના ઘરમાં લઇ આવ્યા અને દીવાલ પર દીકરીનો ફોટો હતો એ બતાવીને પૂછ્યું કે "આ દીકરી હતી?" ગાડીવાળા માણસે જણાવી દીધું કે "આ દીકરીએ મને ઉભી રાખીને ઘર સુધી મૂકી ગયી હતી."

ગામના વડીલે આ શખ્સને જણાવ્યું કે "આ દીકરી મરી એને ત્રણ વર્ષ થઇ ગયા છે."

આ ગાડીવાળા માણસને એમ થયું કે પોતાના પિતાને કઈ થાય તો દીકરી કોઈ પણ રૂપમાં આવતી હોય છે. તેથી કહેવાયું છે કે "દીકરી હરહંમેશ વહાલનો દરિયો હોય!!!"

The 99 Club

Once upon a time there lived a King who despite his luxurious lifestyle was neither happy nor content.
One day, the King came upon a servant who was singing happily while he worked. This fascinated the King; why was he the Supreme Ruler of the Land... unhappy and gloomy, while a lowly servant had so much joy.
The King asked the servant, "How come you are so happy ?"
The man replied, "Your Majesty, I am nothing but a servant, but my family and I don't need too much. Just a roof over our heads and warm food to fill our tummies.”

The king was not satisfied with that reply. Later in the day, he sought the advice of his most trusted advisor. After hearing the King's woes and the servant's story, the advisor said, " Your Majesty, I believe that the servant has not been made part of The 99 Club."

"The 99 Club? And what exactly is that?" the King inquired.
The advisor replied, “Your Majesty, to truly know what The 99 Club is : place 99 Gold coins in a bag and leave it at this servant's doorstep."

When the servant saw the bag. He took it into his house. When he opened the bag, he let out a great shout of joy.
wow !! so many gold coins!
He began to count them. After several counts he was at last convinced that there were 99 coins. He wondered, " What could've happened to that last gold coin? Surely, no one would leave 99 coins! "
He looked everywhere he could but that last coin was elusive.
Finally, exhausted, he decided that he was going to have to work harder than ever to earn that gold coin and complete his collection.

From that day, the servant's life changed. He was overworked, horribly grumpy, and castigated his family for not helping him make that 100th gold coin. He felt so unhappy all the time. He stopped singing while he worked.
Witnessing this drastic transformation. The King was puzzled.
When he sought his advisor's help, the advisor said, " Your Majesty, the servant has now officially joined The 99 Club. "

He continued,
"The 99 Club is a name given to those people who have enough to be happy but are never contented. Because they're always yearning and striving for that extra 1... telling themselves: "Let me get that one final thing and then I will be happy for life ."
We too can be happy with very little in our lives. But the minute we're given something bigger and better. We need to watch out for our monkey minds, which may want even more!
We lose our sleep, our happiness.
we hurt the people around us.
All these as a price for our growing needs and desires.
So my dear brothers sisters :
it’s all up to us. whether we want to join 'The 99 Club' or not!
