THE 6 TH ENEMY IN ME!


"'Jeopardizing one's interests,
Endangering one's safety,
Attacking one with greater intensity,
Luring one again at the next opportunity 
Beyond
Overpowering one in the right moment without recourse
Unleashes it's evil intentions making the person
Sob profusely with crocodile tears in front of others
and
Yield temporarily thru' a smile with a volcano within!'

You know.. 
I wrote this song on the so called 
6th enemy of human being
(JEALOUSY) 
Sang it in my heart on and on
Bi-hearted it to core,
Went deep into this enemy's structure,
Grasped its roots 
and
Totally eliminated it in me!"

I said aloud.. Instantly, my phone rang and I took it..

"Hello.. Yeah.. It's me.. How are you? What? Is it? So nice to hear the good news.. Great.. Oh.. You are giving a party.. Yes.. Bye then.. All the best!"

I said and kept the phone down..

Next moment,
The thought of my friend getting an extra benefit started hovering next to me poking me on and on and as I looked around,
In distance I heard
Someone singing and whistling 
mischievously looking at me.. 

"You might have sung on me for a while
coolly 
As there were
No major comparable events next to you, 
But today,
I caught you in the right moment
When such an event surfaced next to you!"

AT TIMES, AGE MATTERS!


The under privileged person of advanced age needed certain genuine help..

The better placed person of zero concern left it to others saying,
  • "I'm busy!"
The better placed person of small concern gave small help saying,
  • "Hope others will do the rest!"
The better placed of person certain concern gave reasonable help saying,
  • "God Bless the person!"
The better placed person of maximum concern gave more help than required saying,
  • "We need to help such people!"
The better placed person of advanced age gave the required help with a smile saying,
  • "I can understand your need very much as we both are in the same boat except for financial differences!"

A DOZEN REALITIES AT MY WORK!

  • Friday evenings become too interesting; Monday mornings remain a bit sickening!
  • Lack of time to do other works; blessing in disguise for core work!
  • Negative situation around; right investment to acquire capability at times!
  • Be a good workman; see no difference between leisure time and work time!
  • Right work on hand; wrong thoughts off from spot!
  • Gateway for long time association with work; ever sincerity never postponing!
  • Make little extra, watch little extra, appear little less extra; do wonders at work!
  • Never remain negative saying, ‘What I'll do’; Ever remain positive feeling, 'What I can do!'
  • Firm up doing, find time beyond 24 hrs!
  • Sure stretch at work; double sure break never!
  • Be willing to work; reap riches endless!
  • Incidents shouldn't decide work progress; requirement should!

MY TRUE OFFERING TO THE ALMIGHTY.. WHAT'S IT LIKE?


"When will I be freed from this unending work? I'm tired beyond!"

I murmured within..

Instantly the Good Spirit appeared in front of me and said..

"I can make you free!"

"Really?"

I asked with an astonishment..

"100% sure!"

The Good Spirit said with a smile..

"Ok.. What should I do, if I am freed?"

I asked..

"These are the 'n' number of alternative works you can take up as you wish and start doing from now onwards!"

Said the Good Spirit..

"OK..Let me choose.. 

Activity 1: Such a skilled work.. I'm not at all fit here..

Activity 2: What a tough work.. Can't do a bit of it..

Activity 3: Oh! Day and night go here..

Activity 4: Can't do it even a part of it..

Activity 5: Impossible for such a weak person like me..

Activity 6: Never I can take up such rough works..

Activity 7: Truly difficult to do..

Activity 8: Hats off for those who do it..

Activity 9: I'm a zero fit here.. 

Activity 10: My heart beats here..

Activities 11, 12, 13, 14....20....25.... 30....

No.. No.. No.. No.. Not at all.. Not a single work, I am fit to take up..

God! How wrongly I was thinking all these days..

I truly understand now that

All works are great and Salutations to those who handle such works with a never failing smile and ease..

Thank you Good Spirit.. You truly opened my eyes..

I promise.. Never I neglect or talk less of my work at any point of time hereafter as that doing alone is the 

MY DAY'S TRUE OFFERING TO THE ALMIGHTY!"

I said, tears flowing down my eyes!

THE POWER OF SINCERE PRAYER!


The moments in front appeared vague and for a while I was a lost personality with
CERTAIN NEGATIVE ENERGY
And
UNKNOW FEAR
Surfacing in me..

The setting Sun in the West busy preparing to brighten up the other part of Globe 
Was unable to console me..
The thick dark Mountains of the North having lost their shine 
Were unable to boost my morale..
The boisterous Ocean of South busy in giving finishing touches for the up coming day activities 
Was unable to cool me..
The moving Clouds in the East having lost their silver lining 
Were unable to brighten me up 
With
The dark Skies above becoming darker and darker
And
Mother Earth next 
Remaining totally silent!

It struck me instantly, I came to full attention and started reciting
THE ORIGINAL BHAJAN
In my heart..

'Achutam Keshavam Rama Narayanam
Krishna Damodaram Vasudevam Harim
Shridharam Madhavam Gopika Vallabham
Janaki Nayakam Ramachandram Bhaje!'

I became instantly calm and in short time went into deep sleep..

It was early morning hrs and as I opened my eyes..

The rays of rising Sun in the East,
The shining rocks of Mountains in the North,
The silver linings of moving Clouds in the West,
The enchanting blue hues of Ocean in South,
The brightened up skies above and
The all loving Mother Earth next
Started surrounding me bringing
CERTAIN POSITIVE ENERGY
And an
UNKNOW JOY
Within me!
