Please see this in a calm mind and bless yourselves. There was a hole. There was a gold coin in the bottom of the hole. One by one, 100 people filled their hands to fetch it, but no one could bring it. They were asked why they could not be brought.   99 replied, “The hole is too deep.”  The last one replied, "My hand is too small." The story has a mysterious meaning The first 99 are hostile. They blame the hole. They close their eyes to their mistakes. By doing so they make themselves unclean or complicated, but they do not know the reason behind this. In response, many times the precious light of life is extinguished, but they can’t find any improvement. This is truly an impure way of viewing things. Life goes on in sorrow. Because of ignorance, life becomes miserable.  Very few are lucky. They can see their flaws in everything. They can see their hands more than the outside hole. Without trying to change the outside environment, they focus on doing inner sel...

Source: Pixabay A senior monk and a junior monk were returning to the monastery in the evening. It had rained and there have been puddles of water on the roadsides. At one place a gorgeous girl was standing unable to walk across the road due to puddles of water.  The elder of the 2 monks went up to her, lifted her and left her on the opposite side of the road, and continued his way to the monastery. Later on, the younger monk came to the elder monk and said, “Sir, as per the rule of monastery, we should not touch a lady .” The elder monk answered, “yes”. Then the younger monk asked again, “Sir, how is it possible for you to lift that woman on the roadside ?” The elder monk told, ”I helped her without occupying things in my mind, you are still carrying her in your mind.” Almost always, we carry tons of things like memories, past events, people, then we suffer. ‘Why me?’ Life is all about abandoning, abandoning all the accumulations we are carrying in our mind. ‘Let go’ of frustratio...

We should very careful while listening to criticism. Here is a nice story based on the common criticising people. A man and his son were once going with their donkey to another nearby town. As they were walking along by his side, a countryman passed them and said, “You fools, a Donkey is to ride upon.” therefore the man put the boy on the donkey, and then they went on their way. But soon they passed a bunch of men, one among whom said, “See that lazy youngster, he lets his father walk while he rides.” So the man instructed his boy to get down and got on himself. But they hadn’t gone far once they passed two women, one among whom said to the opposite, “Shame on the lazy man to let his poor little son trudge along.” Well, the person didn’t know what to do, but eventually, he took his boy up befo...
