THE WAY LIFE MARCHES ON..


The Great Statesman freed slaves and said,
  • “You are free to go anywhere now!”
A few said,

“Sir! 

We are accustomed to
  • Take instructions from our masters along with their scoldings,
  • Do their work and
  • Spend our day..
We wish to continue that life only!”

That's the effect of getting accustomed to anything over a long period..

Even slavery looks OK!

The Saying goes..

'Start eating neem fruit continuously; it tastes sweet!'

I like my experiences chained in all interactions and somehow I'm happy that way..

In such scenario, a Great Personality of true understanding having the best interest of conveying to the world what He/She experiences sure faces people, who will oppose tooth and nail..

It depends on
  • The prevailing social and economic conditions,
  • The traumas people were subjected to in recent times and
  • The existence of similar Great Personalities around in sizable number simultaneously..
Thus all preachings around us have limited influence on us as the story goes..

A king turned Saint had great interest to convey what He had experienced as Truth to people..

First, He went to a man of ultimate learning. The learned man replied,
  • “Should I tell you or you should tell me?”
Later He approached the Emperor. The Emperor said,
  • “I'm the supreme. Who are you to tell me?”
Then he went to a businessman. He shot back,
  • “What benefit I get if I listen to you?”
Finally he went to an ordinary man. He lamented,
  • “I am tired beyond. I don't have energy to listen to you!”
The Saint felt within Himself,

“There is no taker of this Truth. Let It be digested within me only!”
