A Great Personality was sailing across high seas. On the ship there were people of different groups and each group segregated themselves to their 'own' and were continuing their activities effectively keeping off from other groups. The journey continued thus..
All of a sudden, an unexpected cyclone hit the ship. It was terrible for some time and the ship instantly became a tiny piece of man made item before the gigantic winds with dark clouds passing over the ship at very high speed and the waters at the bottom tossing the ship both sides. The day appeared night in no time..
Suddenly, the psychology of all passengers had undergone a dramatic change, all became single minded and started Praying to the Almighty together chanting a single message..
"God! Do Save us and Take care!”
The Prayer continued and the typhoon too for a while but soon it was time for the typhoon to come down in its intensity to the relief of all and in few hours totally vanished from the scene with sky becoming clear and weather returning to normalcy..
In further few hrs, people again segregated themselves to their smaller circles and were busy in their own activities keeping off from others..
The Great Man thought,
“How nice it would have been had the 'Togetherness' that was there sometime back continued in this normal time too!”
That's is how I'm living on Mother Earth ever oscillating between the thoughts..
'My man' and 'Not my man!'
No doubt, physical demarcations are needed between human groups as people of various countries, states, towns, villages, religions, age groups etc.. etc.. wherein that grouping has it's own purpose.. Viz.,
Right identification and smooth day to day transactions from living point of view..
Here alone, let my mind instead of playing its own unending tricks be trained with the thoughts..
'No doubt, divisions in the world have their own sacred purpose of leading a smooth and standard life but what my mind says thru' such divisions like
Myself,
My man and
Not my man
Are required only at
Memory and Action Levels
But not at
Heart Level
Where in I can sure identify myself with the
Original Oneness..
If attempted to..
But there, I'll have a taste of my 'self interest' without a say as that 'self', in the nick of the moment totally embraces me and says,
- "What are you saying? It's your life and where's the place here for others other than whom you decided upon as yours? From centuries people are doing that and all can't be wrong!"
My pleasant and unpleasant experiences with my 'own' till date put together
Alone are indirectly affirming that; nothing else!
Thus seen,
- It's just pure science here,
- There's nothing my own defined in the Books of Reference with me anywhere other than that declared openly,
- It's better I drop such my thoughts as much possible and
- Remain that much humble and calm in my life
Making peace settlement with 'myself' at certain level..
Beyond, more clarity comes to me at this stage only thru' a sincere service to the Family Unit I voluntarily have taken up where in
Beyond, more clarity comes to me at this stage only thru' a sincere service to the Family Unit I voluntarily have taken up where in
- The Unit is fully respected,
- Inside members are rightly cared for,
- Attached responsibilities are well discharged and
- Development of members is properly ensued..
Cooling down to some extent the engulfing fire within which was constantly painting a rosy picture of life of only
'SELF INTEREST!'
