It was a hectic day at my factory I had
very little time to take a break, but at the end of the day it made me satisfied
that the day’s work was smooth. There was nothing to worry about the unfinished
tasks for the day. I came home had my evening tea and then my eyes closed for a
while, I could visualize this conversation happening inside:
“I would like to place as few question
before you, my Lord” I said.
“Do you want me to answer your questions?” Absolute asked.
“Yes, but only if you have time” I
quipped.
He smiled and said “I have transcended
the time, I am eternity.”
“You are eternity but why have you put me
in the time limits”? I asked.
“Who said you are not eternal, just come
out of your Body and Mind index you are also eternity.” He said.
“Please Lord elaborate.” I requested.
Absolute explained, “When you were born
you had no limit of time and as you grew you got bored with your childhood and
rush to be a grown up adult and then when you reach old age you yearn to get
back your childhood. These changes in phase are for your Body not for your Mind
or your Self. You fail to comprehend this Truth.”
“O Lord, please let me know am I
upholding your expectations as a human being.” I asked.
“You ask me if I am happy the way you
are behaving.” He asked with a little louder voice.
“No, Lord I just want to know if I am
living life as you had anticipated.” I clarified.
“Do you call your life a living; you
work so hard and skip meals to see that you do not starve. You earn money
losing your health and finally spend that which you have earned hard to restore
your health. You are so preoccupied with the future and do not relish the
present. You live as if you never die and die as if you never lived. Do you
call this a living”? He asked.
“Oh Lord, then am I doing a blunder by
living so.” I asked.
“Not only have you dear, but most of the
human sect does the same.” He poked.
“Then Lord please I request you to guide
me as you did to Arjuna in the Battle field, as you directed Moses at Mount
Sinai, as you did guided Hussain at Karbala.
Absolute reached out for my hand and
held it with His, there was silence for a while. And then He started to reveal
His views on how I have to lead my life.
“First you have to understand that you
cannot expect anyone to love you. All you can do is behave in such way that they love
you.
Then learn that it is not good to
compare yourself with others as there is so vast difference in what you deserve
and what they deserve. There might be much more than you desire but never less
than what you deserve.
You have to learn to forgive and forget
as forgiving add more to your virtue. By forgiving you remember very less and
you are relieved, instead if are not forgiving you remember a lot and get
tensed.
It is very easy to dig into profound
wounds of those whom you hate while it takes eon to heal them.
You are not a rich man if you have the
most; you are rich only if you need the least.
There is no use of having lots of people,
who love you dearly, what matter most is even if you have a few you should be
able to express and reciprocate to their feelings.
Understand that even if the conceptions
are same the perceptions can be different.
I have provided enough for all your need
but not for your greed. Greed based need or need based greed both do not have my
approval. What starts off as need based greed ends up as greed based need.
Work as if you might die the next day
but in terms of making money think you have another day.
Son, these are very little and subtle
matters, if you practice all that is said immensely you will have
self-realization and the intuition will reveal more to you” He said.
“Thank you, My Lord for all the good
words and providing me solace.” I said humbly.
Absolute smiled and said, “Just be aware
that I am with you ... always.”
Just as I could come to terms with what I
had been visualizing my cell phone made its presence felt…………………!
