Inspiring story behind why Ganapathi is worshipped first

In Hindu myth , we usually observe in temples and places where poojas are conducted , Lord Ganapathi is remembered and worshipped first , prayers are submitted and then the actual pooja continues. Also in many cultural programme , songs , prayers on Ganapathi are sung first and then the actual events start.  Have you ever wondered why is this so ? In this post we share an interesting story from hindu myth describing the reason for same. Some of us may already be knowing this story -  its worth reading again which carries a beautiful message to the society. 



Of the two sons of Lord Shiva & Goddess parvathi - Murugesha and Ganesha , had more nurture towards Ganesha being the younger son.  Their home being Himapuri  , was full of snow filled hills and rocks. One day - Parvathi took Ganesha near the water flow where she used to take her bath.  Before entering the flow , Parvathi instructed Ganesha to guard the entrance and not to allow anybody till she comes back from bath, even if Shiva comes make him stay back till she is back. Ganesha was a great follower of his elder's advise and followed the same. Ganesha with all his earnestness started guarding the entrance 

After some time , few Shivaganaas reached this spot and asked ganesha to inform parvathi that Shiva would like to see her and has asked to meet him. Ganesha politely replied them with the instructions which paravathi had told him . Shivaganaas  still forced ganesha and tried to enter entrance . Ganesha became furious watching this , with anger started dispelling them by beating them. Shivaganaas baffled by the incident left the spot and informed shiva about the event. Shiva got by surprise, consoled them and did not like the way ganesha treated them. He himself left to the spot to review the situation

Ganesha on seeing Shiva at the entrance with full respect submitted the paranamas and informed what parvathi had told him. Shiva tried to convince Ganesha that it is not good for children to interfere with elders , but yet ganesha bound by his promise did not allow Shiva to enter . Furious by ganesha's behaviour , shiva was so angry that forgetting ganesha is his son,  took his trishula and cut off ganesha's neck , separating his body and head.  Parvathi just returned back when this happened , shocked by the incident , with outraged grievance and anger took the form of a Kali with intention to destroy the world . Noticing this , Narada tried to console both Shiva & Parvathi , begged Shiva to grant life back to ganesha. By this time , Shiva's anger had reduced and proceeded to give back life to ganesha.  As ganesha's head was damaged , shiva replaced this with a beautiful child Elephant's head. Ganesha got his life back , but parvathi was not satisfied and thought others may make fun seeing at ganesha. Narada consoled that he shall make him the leader for all worlds. Ganesha did not like this which hurt his self-respect and requested to arrange a competition to prove himself if he is worth for the position and only if he wins he would accept the offer.  Shiva parvathi were very happy watching this character and decision from ganesha.

Accordingly a competition was arranged - one who travels one complete round the world , covering one circumference and reaches faster back shall be considered the winner . All devataas along with murugesha started their travel , while ganesha started on with his vehicle Mooshika . As Mooshika was very slow , it hardly managed to travel even smaller distance. Noticing this ganesha thought for a moment , came back to spot where Shiva parvathi was sitting and due respect , submitted his pranamaas by rounding them 3 times and stood back . After some time all devataas returned back traversing the world. All were took by surprise seeing Ganesha who told them he has won the competition . Even Narada praised ganesha and declared him the winner. When asked he explained - "according to Vedas one who with due bhakthi & respect does a single circum navigate pranama to parents , it is equivalent to traversing the whole world once" - and this is what ganesha has done now 3 times which makes him the winner

Everyone praised the intelligence and character of Ganesha and declared him as the overlord of the devataas . From then Ganesha was known as "Ganapathi". This is the reason even now it has come as a practice - first pooja is submitted to Ganapathi - praying him to provide blessings to conduct an event without any failure and then the actual event starts .

This story leaves a good message even to the present society - some people  forget and don’t realize the truth about the living gods - their elders and parents and instead go in search of god travelling places . If everyone starts following the same principle treat their elders and parents as Gods with love , affection and follow their instructions with respect then just imagine how further beautiful this world would have been !

My mom only had one eye. I hated her… She was such an embarrassment. She cooked for students and teachers to support the family.

There was thi...s one day during elementary school where my mom came to say hello to me. I was
so embarrassed.

How could she do this to me? I ignored her, threw her a hateful look and ran out. The next day at school one of my classmates said, ‘EEEE, your mom only has one eye!’

I wanted to bury myself. I also wanted my mom to just disappear. I confronted her that day and said, ‘ If you’re only gonna make me a laughing stock, why don’t you just die?’

My mom did not respond… I didn’t even stop to think for a second about what I had said, because I was full of anger. I was oblivious to her feelings.

I wanted out of that house, and have nothing to do with her. So I studied real hard, got a chance to go abroad to study.

Then, I got married. I bought a house of my own. I had kids of my own. I was happy with my life, my kids and the comforts. Then one day, my Mother came to visit me. She hadn’t seen me in years and she didn’t even meet her grandchildren.

When she stood by the door, my children laughed at her, and I yelled at her for coming over uninvited. I screamed at her, ‘How dare you come to my house and scare my children!’ GET OUT OFHERE! NOW!!!’

And to this, my mother quietly answered, ‘Oh, I’m so sorry. I may have gotten the wrong address,’ and she disappeared out of sight.

One day, a letter regarding a school reunion came to my house. So I lied to my wife that I was going on a business trip. After there union, I went to the old shack just out of curiosity.

My neighbours said that she died. I did not shed a single tear. They handed me a letter that she had wanted me to have.

‘My dearest son,I think of you all the time. I’m sorry that I came to your house and scared your children.

I was so glad when I heard you were coming for the reunion. But I may not be able to even get out of bed to see you. I’m sorry that I was a constant embarrassment to you when you were growing up.

You see……..when you were very little, you got into an accident, and lost your eye. As a mother, I couldn’t stand watching you having to grow up with one eye. So I gave you mine.

I was so proud of my son who was seeing a whole new world for me, in my place, with that eye.
With all my love to you,
Your mother.’

➕➕  *HOW TO*  *INCREASE*  *POSITIVE ENERGY* *IN OUR HOUSE*

1) Open all windows in the house and allow fresh air and sunshine to enter the house. Free flowing air and sun are negative energy removers

2. Dispose of all the old unwanted things lying in the house. Clutter is a negativity magnet. It attracts and accumulates negative energy in the house.

3). Walking barefoot in the house helps all your negative energy to be absorbed by the earth. 
Grounding is important to keep the energy balance in our body. 

4) In the olden days, footwears were kept out of the house. People used to enter the house only after washing feet with water. This action ensures that all the negativity remains outside or are grounded by earth and does not enter the house. Now it has become difficult to keep the footwear outside. So preferably remove them near the entrance door.

5) Go out in the open air. Take walks in the garden or open ground. Being amongst nature re-energizes or charges you fully.

6) Sweeping the floor also ensures that the negative energies are shaken and moved out with the dirt.

7)  Rock salt is another negativity remover. Wash or mop your floor with a fistful rock salt in a bucket of water. This ensures that every nook and corner of the house is rid of negative energy.

8) Potted plants or trees around your house or society also ensures more positive energy in the house and area. 

9) Bathing or Soaking your legs and hands in rock salt water once in a while removes the negativity attached to your body and cleanse your aura.

11)   Repetition of Prayers,  increases the positive vibrations in the house. 100%

11)  Keep your thoughts, action and speech Positive. Negative thoughts will bring in negative vibes. So avoid all negative thoughts, speech and actions. 

12) Keep your house well lit and illuminated. Light removes negativity. 

13) Keep faith in God and in yourself. 
You are the Creator of your own destiny by the Choices you make.

ಹಳೆಯ ಕಾಲದ ಹೆಂಚಿನ ಮನೆಯಲ್ಲಿ

How to keep deleting bad thoughts and be happy


Sometimes we use our mind just like a street dump yard . We keep loading it with so many stuffs which may not be useful at all in future,  gradually causes its decline , indirectly leads to other diseases - leading to weakening our body. The dust and dirt thoughts or feelings inside represent its own disease . Strangely many people unknowingly , invite problems and suffer.

It is every essential to discover and search at times such dirt thoughts of Anger , Jealous , Impatience , Revenge , Depression etc & clean from our mind. By doing it ,  mind's strength will be retained just like a new light entering into home after a neat brush of dust outside the house. We get new light , new energy , new air which brings in new happiness and enthusiasm. But how is it possible to empty the mind ? 



Just like we take bath once or twice daily to keep our external body safe and clean , even our mind should be observed and brought in control which is not an easy task. Some people doesn't even have the practice to introspect , while some doesn't know how to introspect , but still they  don't accept that their minds are disturbed.

Everyday in the morning and at evening spare 5 to 10 minutes for introspecting your mind. Start practicing seeing inside your minds which is for your benefit .  After a fresh bath , sit & relax on your favorite position , close your eyes , imagine that no external sound /voice may intervene you , inhale a deep breath and exhale slowly.

Take a deep inhale and exhale 3 times , inhale the fresh oxygen inside , store it inside for few seconds and exhale slowly through your mouth. Imagine , you are leaving out all contamination from your body while you are exhaling.  Imagine the fresh air inhaled through your nose and the thrill of it spreading inside across your heart , stomach and all other body parts. After 2 or 3 seconds , slowly exhale out through your mouth . Imagine during exhale -  the tiredness , wicked emotions etc are going out of your body.  Again inhale & exhale - do this for 5 to 10 minutes which helps in emptying the mind.

Emptying the mind releases tension and provides patience.  Your body will find new strength from it , your eyes will be more brighter , your minds will get more room to accept new thoughts . Practice this at-least for 21 days and see how its brings in change to your life.

Just by practicing this technique for few days you will start noticing many problems in your body start getting solved , mind gets relaxed ,  memory power gets increased , mind starts moving towards more creative tasks and thoughts . By doing this daily , you can understand and take control of the magic inside you - your mind.

 Always one should not criticize self and feel low .

*The Naked Truth of Life*

There was a man with four wives. He loved his fourth wife the most and took great care of her and gave her the best.

He also loved his third wife and always wanted to show her off to his friends. However, he always had a fear that she might runaway with some other man.

He loved his second wife too. Whenever he faced some problems, he always turned to his second wife and she would always help him out.

He did not love his first wife though she loved him deeply, was very loyal to him and took great care of him. 

One day the man fell very ill and knew that he is going to die soon. He told himself, *_"I have four wives. I will take one of them along with me when I die to keep me company in my death."_*

Thus, he asked the fourth wife to die along with him and keep him company. *_"No way!"_* she replied and walked away without another word.

He asked his third wife. She said *_"Life is so good over here. I'm going to remarry when you die"._*

He then asked his second wife. She said *_"I'm Sorry. I can't help you this time around. At the most I can only accompany you till your grave."_*

By now his heart sank and he turned cold. Then a voice called out: *_"I'll go with you. I'll follow you no matter where you go."_*

The man looked up and there was his first wife. She was so skinny, almost like she suffered from malnutrition. Greatly grieved, the man said, *_"I should have taken much better care of you while I could have!"_*

Actually, we all have four wives in our lives.

a. *The fourth wife is our body.* No matter how much time and effort we lavish in making it look good, it'll leave us when we die.

b. *The third wife is our possession, status and wealth.* When we die, they go to others.

c. *The second wife is our family and friends.* No matter how close they had been there for us when we're alive, the furthest they can stay by us is up to the grave.

d. *The first wife is our soul,* neglected in our pursuit of material wealth and pleasure. It is actually the only thing that follows us wherever we go.

*_One of the best messages I have received_*

Pass it on.....

Mother  is  flying  a  kite. 
Her son is watching her carefully. 

After some time son says "mom. 
Because of the string the kite is not able to go any further higher.

"Hearing this, the mother smiles and breaks the string. 
The kite goes higher and then shortly after that, 
it comes and falls on the ground. 

The child is very dejected and sad.

The mother sits next to him and calmly explains: 
"Son, in life we reach a certain level and then we feel that there are certain things that are not letting us grow any further like Home, Family, Friends, Culture etc. 

We feel we want to be  free from those strings which we believe are stopping us from going higher. 

But, remember son."That our home , family, friends and culture are the things that will help us stay stable at the high heights . 

If we try to break away from those strings our condition will be similar to the kite."we'll fall down soon..

Moral:
"Never  go  away  from  Home  Culture,  Family, Friends  and  Relationships as they help keep us stable while we are flying high..."

      😊Life is Beautiful😊
      👥Stay connected🎎

Once Buddha was traveling with a few of his followers. While they were passing a lake, Buddha told one of his disciples, "I am thirsty. 
Do get me some water from the lake." The disciple walked up to the lake. At that moment, 
a bullock cart started crossing through the lake.
As a result, the water became very muddy and turbid. The disciple thought, "How can I give this muddy water to Buddha to drink?" So he came back and told Buddha, "The water in there is very muddy. I don't think it is fit to drink." After about half an hour, again Buddha asked the same disciple to go back to the lake. The disciple went back, and found that the water was still muddy. He returned and informed Buddha about the same. After sometime, again Buddha asked the same disciple to go back. This time, the disciple found the mud had settled down, and the water was clean and clear. So he collected some water in a pot and brought it to Buddha. Buddha looked at the water, and then he looked up at the disciple and said, "See what you did to make the water clean. You let it be, and the mud settled down on its own, and you have clear water. Your mind is like that too ! When it is disturbed,
just let it be. Give it a little time. It will settle down on its own. You don't have to put in any effort to calm it down. It will happen. It is effortless."

Having 'Peace of Mind' is not a strenuous job, it is an effortless process. So keep ur mind cool and have a great life ahead. Never leave your close ones. If you find few faults in them, just close your eyes and remember the best time you spent together, because...

Affection is more Important than Perfection..!
Neither you can hug yourself nor you can cry on your own shoulder. Life is all about living for one another, so live with those who love you the most. Relations cannot be understood by the language of money, because some investments never give profit, but they make us rich...!
"Family n Friends are such Investments"

A beautiful post ..............from one mother to another mother

There were days when My home used to be filled with laughter, arguments, fights, jokes and loads of mischief. 
Books used to be strewn all over the show. Pens and books all over, and clothes messing the rooms, thrown on the beds. 
I used to shout at them to tidy up their mess. 

In the morning:

One will wake up and say: 
Mama I can't find a certain book. 
And the other will say: I can't find my perfume, 
And one will say: Mama where's my homework. 
And  will say: Mama I forgot to complete my homework. 

Everyone used to ask about their lost possessions. 
And I will say, but take care of your stuff, be responsible, you have to grow up. 

And today I stand at the doorway of the room.
The beds are empty. 
All the cupboards have only a few pieces of clothes in them. 
And what remains is the smell of perfume that lingers in the air. 
Everyone had a special smell. 
So I deep breathe in the smell of their perfume for maybe it will fill the empty ache in my heart.

All I have now is the memory of their laughs and their mischief and their warm hugs. 

Today my house is clean and organized and everything is in its place, and it is calm, free from all clutter and noise .. 

   ...... apparently peaceful. ...... 

But it is a desert with no life in it. 
I wish, I had learnt - Do not become angry with your kids about the mess, and about the clutter and about the noise .. 

Now, every time they come to visit and they spend time with us, my home springs back to life and I wish the days had more hours everyday  to keep the fragrance of life longer.......     
And when they are ready to leave. They pull their bags and it is as if they tug my heart along with it. 

They close the door behind them and then I stand still and think of the many times I shouted at them to close the doors. 

Here I am today, closing my own doors. Nobody opens it besides me. Each one gone to a different city or a different country. 
All left to find their own path in life. 

They have grown up and I wished that they could stay with me forever.

Dear God
..... Take care of my children and the children of all the mothers of this earth - for all mothers have the same deep sob in their hearts and feel the same void in the bed rooms once the children made mess of them ..

Oh God, protect our children, wherever they may be , for you are their guide and their saviour ..
  ...and always keep them happy. Cherish ur kids.
A MOTHER🙏🙏

*Time Will Come* ⏳

Kenya is 2 hrs ahead of Nigeria, but it does not mean that Nigeria is slow, or that Kenya is fast. Both countries are  working based on their own "Time Zone."

Some one is still single. Someone got married and 'waited' 10 yrs before having a child, there is another who had a baby within a year of marriage.

Someone graduated at the age of 22, yet waited 5 years before securing a good job; and there is another who graduated at 27 and secured employment immediately !

Someone became CEO at 25 and died at 50 while another became a CEO at 50 and lived to 90 years. 

Everyone works based on their 'Time Zone',

People can have things worked out only according to their pace.
Work in your “time zone”.

Your Colleagues, friends, younger ones might "seem" to go ahead of you.

May be some might "seem" behind you.

Don't envy them or mock them, it's their 'Time Zone.' 
You are in yours!

Hold on, be strong, and stay true to yourself. All things shall work together for your good. 

You’re not late … 
You are not early ... you’re very much On time!

*RESPECT YOUR TIME ZONE*

Great Read - Which Parent Wouldn't Identify With This !
Taken from a handout by Corrie Lynne Player:
 
 
“I just realized that while children are dogs—loyal and affectionate—teenagers are cats.
 
It’s so easy to be a dog owner. You feed it, train it, boss it around.  It puts its head on your knee and gazes at you as if you were a Rembrandt painting. It bounds indoors with enthusiasm when you call it.

Then, around age 13, your adoring puppy turns into a big old cat. When you tell it to come inside, it looks amazed, as if wondering who died and made you emperor.
 
Instead of dogging your footsteps, it disappears. You won’t see it again until it gets hungry…then it pauses on its sprint through the kitchen long enough to turn up its nose at whatever you’re serving, swishing its tail and giving you an aggrieved look until you break out the tuna again.
 
When you reach out to ruffle its head in that old affectionate gesture, it twists away from you, then gives you a blank stare as if it is trying to remember where it has seen you before.
 
You, not realizing your dog is now a cat, think something must be desperately wrong with it. It seems so antisocial, so distant, sort of depressed. It won’t go on family outings. Since you’re the one who raised it, taught it to fetch, stay and sit on command, you assume you did something wrong. Flooded with guilt and fear, you redouble your efforts to make your pet behave.
 
Only now you’re dealing with a cat, so everything that worked before now has the opposite result. Call it, and it runs away. Tell it to sit, and it jumps on the counter. The more you go toward it, wringing your hands, the more it moves away.
 
Instead of continuing to act like a dog owner, you must learn to behave like a cat owner. Put a dish of food near the door and let it come to you. But remember that a cat needs your help and affection too. Sit still and it will come, seeking that warm, comforting lap it has not entirely forgotten. Be there to open the door for it.
 
One day your grown up child will walk into the kitchen, give you a big kiss and say,“You’ve been on your feet all day. Let me get those dishes for you.” 

Then, you’ll realize your cat is a dog again.”

Do you know why consuming liquor is called Drinks? 
1. D in Drink is for digestion. One peg starts it's process.
2. R is for relaxation. After one peg, you start relaxing....
3. I is for intelligence.  It's common after some pegs for one to feel intelligent and he starts shooting his mouth and all nonsensical knowledge and sentiments pour in.
4. N is for naughtiness. Those naughty thoughts and actions surface.
5. K is for king. He feels on top of world and behaves stupidly like a king. All others are forced to agree and accept him.
6. S is for snake. The final stage of climax. Crawls and twists like a snake.
No other liquids have this distinction to be called Drinks.

ಸುಮಾರು ಇಪ್ಪತ್ತೈದು ವರ್ಷಗಳ ಹಿಂದೆ ಪ್ರಖ್ಯಾತ ಹರಿಕಥಾ ವಿದ್ವಾಂಸರಾದ ರಘುನಾಥ ದಾಸರು ತಮ್ಮ ಹರಿಕಥೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ನಿರೂಪಿಸುತ್ತಿದ್ದ ಹಾಸ್ಯ ಪ್ರಸಂಗ

ಒಂದು ಕಛೇರಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಒಬ್ಬ ಬ್ರಿಟೀಶ್ ಅಧಿಕಾರಿಯಿದ್ದ...ಆತನಿಗೆ ಕನ್ನಡ ಬರುತ್ತಿರಲಿಲ್ಲ...ಅದೇ ಕಛೇರಿಯಲ್ಲಿದ್ದ ಗುಮಾಸ್ತನಿಗೆ ಇಂಗ್ಲೀಷ್ ಬರುತ್ತಿರಲಿಲ್ಲ. ಒಮ್ಮೆ ಗುಮಾಸ್ತನ ತಂದೆಯ ಶ್ರಾದ್ದದ ಸಲುವಾಗಿ ರಜೆ ಕೋರಿ ಇಂಗ್ಲೀಷ್ ನಲ್ಲಿ ರಜಾ ಚೀಟಿ ಬರೆದ "tomarro my fathers Thithi..grant one day leave." ಪಾಪ ಆ ಅಧಿಕಾರಿಗೆ thithi ಅಂದರೇನೆಂದು ತಿಳಿಯಲಿಲ್ಲ ಗುಮಾಸ್ತನನ್ನು ಕರೆದು ಕೇಳಿದ. ಗುಮಾಸ್ತ thithi ಅಂದರೆ thithi ಅಂದ. ಅಧಿಕಾರಿಗೆ
ಅರ್ಥವಾಗದಿದ್ದರೂ ರಜೆ ಮಂಜೂರು ಮಾಡಿದ.

ಗುಮಾಸ್ತ ಮಾರನೇ ದಿನ ತಿಥಿ ಮುಗಿಸಿಕೊಂಡು ಒಬ್ಬಟ್ಟನ್ನು ಅಧಿಕಾರಿಗೆ ಅಭಿಮಾನದಿಂದ ನೀಡಿದ. ಒಬ್ಬಟ್ಟಿನ ರುಚಿಗೆ ಮಾರುಹೋದ ಅಧಿಕಾರಿ..what is..how to make it ಅಂತ ಕೇಳಿದ. ಗುಮಾಸ್ತನಿಗೆ ಇಂಗ್ಲೀಷ್ ನಲ್ಲಿ ವಿವರಿಸಬೇಕಾದ ಒತ್ತಡ. ಆದರೂ ಹೇಳಿದ. This is OBBATTU.... this is poornam..this is hittu...putting..lutting...eating ಅಂತ ಹೇಳಿದ.

🍁....Behaviour of the boss....🍁

The Boss was retiring. Everyone had te ars in their eyes on  the day of his farewell. One of the employees said, “Sir, there is one thing we want to learn from you. You worked here for so many years. What to speak about scolding your subordinates, we have never seen you even shouting at them. We have scolded our subordinates on pressure of work or for other reasons. We want to know about the seed of your patience.”
The Boss said, “Then listen to this incident of my childhood. My father was working as a lower level employee in an office. He was a very nice person. He was respected very much in our family. It happened one day. I was studying in the 4th standard. I had gone to the office of my father for some reason. I saw that my father was not on his seat. I waited outside. After some time, the door of the Boss opened. My father came out of the door. I saw the fair face of my father had turned red. He went straight to a corner and stood there looking outside through a window there. He had not seen me. I went to him and called him slowly. He was taken by surprise and turned back to look at me. I saw stream of tears flowing down his eyes. He was slightly disturbed seeing me. He did not find time to wipe out his tears. Can my father cry anytime? He was the strongest man in the world for me. It was
out of my imagination that someone could hurt him. I ran straight to the room of the Boss. Father was calling me from behind. But, listening to nothing, I went inside and asked the Boss, “Why did you make my father cry?” The Boss was also surprised.
Thereafter, my father tried to make me understand. But, that day I had decided to take revenge on the Boss. I decided that day that I will study well and become a Boss one day, but I will not make my subordinates cry anytime. Because, they are not only the employees of my office, they are also respected and dear father or brother or somebody of their families and their surroundings. People say it is not be possible to control others without scolding them. I say, what for love is there then?”💐🤗🤗

ONE DAY I DECIDED TO QUIT
I quit my job, my relationship, my spirituality… I wanted to quit my life.
I went to the woods to have one last talk with god
“God”, I asked,
“Can you give me one good reason not to quit?”.
His answer surprised me…
“Look around”, He said. “Do you see the fern and the bamboo ?
“Yes”, I replied.
“When I planted the fern and the bamboo seeds, I took very good care of them.
I gave them light.I gave them water.The fern quickly grew from the earth.
Its brilliant green covered the floor.Yet nothing came from the bamboo seed. But I did not quit on the bamboo.In the second year the Fern grew more vibrant and plentiful.
And again, nothing came from the bamboo seed. But I did not quit on the bamboo. He said.
“In year three there was still nothing from the bamboo seed.But I would not quit.
In year four, again, there was nothing from the bamboo seed. I would not quit.” He said.
“Then in the fifth year a tiny sprout emerged from the earth. Compared to the fern it was seemingly small and insignificant…But just 6 months later the bamboo rose to over 100 feet tall.
It had spent the five years growing roots. Those roots made it strong and gave it what it needed to survive.I would not give any of my creations a challenge it could not handle.”
He asked me. “Did you know, my child, that all this time you have been struggling, you have actually been growing roots”.
“I would not quit on the bamboo.I will never quit on you.”
“Don’t compare yourself to others.” He said.”The bamboo had a different Purpose than the fern.
Yet they both make the forest beautiful.”"Your time will come”, God said to me.
“You will rise high”.
“How high should I rise?” I asked.
“How high will the bamboo rise?” He asked in return.
“As high as it can?” I questioned.”Yes.” He said, “Give Me glory by rising as high as you can.”
I left the forest and brought back this story.I hope these words can help you see that God will never give up on
you.Never, Never, Never, Give up.
Don’t tell the Lord how big the problem is, tell the problem how Great the Lord is!

ಒಬ್ಬ ರಾಜ.. ಅವನ ಸೇನೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ನೂರಾರು ಕುದುರೆ, ಒಂಟೆ, ಆನೆ, ಕಾಲಾಳುಗಳು.. 

ರಾಜನಿಗೆ ಒಂದು ಆನೆಯ ಮೇಲೆ ಬಲು ಪ್ರೀತಿ. ಪ್ರತಿ ಯುದ್ಧವೇ ಆಗಲಿ ಮತ್ತೇನೇ ಆಗಲಿ ತಾಳ್ಮೆಯಿಂದ ಶ್ರದ್ಧೆಯಿಂದ ತನ್ನ ಕೆಲಸ ಮಾಡಿಕೊಂಡು ಬರುತ್ತಾ ಇತ್ತು..

ಹೀಗೆ ಇರುವಾಗ ಆನೆಗೆ ಕೂಡ ವಯಸ್ಸಾಗ್ತಾ ಬಂತು.. ಕೆಲ್ಸ ಮಾಡೋ ಕ್ಷಮತೆ ಕುಂದಿದಂತೆ ಕಾಣ ತೊಡಗಿತು. 

ರಾಜ ಇನ್ನು ಈ ಆನೆಗೆ ತೊಂದರೆ ಕೊಡುವುದು ಬೇಡ ಎಂದು ಅದನ್ನ ಕೆಲಸಕ್ಕೆ ಹಚ್ಚುವುದ ನಿಲ್ಲಿಸಲು ಹೇಳಿದ. ಆನೆ ಮಂಕಾಗತೊಡಗಿತು.. 
ಒಮ್ಮೆ ನೀರು ಕುಡಿಯಲು ಹೋದ ಆನೆ ಕೆಸರಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಸಿಕ್ಕಿಕೊಂಡು ಬಿಟ್ಟಿತು.. ಎಷ್ಟೇ ಪ್ರಯತ್ನ ಪಟ್ಟರೂ ಹೊರ ಬರಲು ಸಾಧ್ಯವಾಗದೆ ಘಿಳಿಡಲು ತೊಡಗಿತು.. ರಾಜ ಸೈನಿಕರ ಜೊತೆ ಬಂದು ಎಷ್ಟೇ ಪ್ರಯತ್ನ ಪಟ್ಟರೂ ಆನೆ ಕೆಸರಲ್ಲಿ ಹೂತುಕೊಳ್ಳುತ್ತಲೇ ಹೋಯ್ತು .. ರಾಜ ನೊಂದುಕೊಂಡ .. ಮಂತ್ರಿಗಳ ಮುಖ ನೋಡಿದ .. ಒಬ್ಬ ಮಂತ್ರಿ ಸೈನಿಕರ ಕರೆದು ಯುದ್ಧ ಕಹಳೆಯ ದನಿ ಹೊರಡಿಸಲು ಹೇಳಿದ .. ಕಹಳೆಯ ದನಿ ಮೊಳಗಿದಂತೆಲ್ಲಾ ಆನೆ ಕಿವಿ ನಿಮಿಸಿರಿ
ಕಣ್ಣರಳಿಸಿ ನೋಡಿ ತನ್ನೆಲ್ಲ ಶಕ್ತಿಯನ್ನು ಹಾಕಿ ಹೊರ ಬಂತು ..ಎಲ್ಲರೂ ಹರ್ಷೋದ್ಘಾರ ಮಾಡಿದರು ... 

ಮಂತ್ರಿ ಹೇಳಿದ 'ಶರೀರ ಬಲವೊಂದೇ ಬದುಕಲ್ಲ ಪ್ರಭು, ಬದುಕಲು ಒಳಗಿನಿಂದ ಒಂದು ಸ್ಪೂರ್ತಿ ಬೇಕು.. ಆ ಸ್ಪೂರ್ತಿ ಬದುಕಲು ಪ್ರೇರೇಪಿಸಿದಾಗ ಮಾತ್ರ ಬದುಕಲು ಛಲ ಬರುತ್ತದೆ . ಆ ಸ್ಪೂರ್ತಿ ನಮ್ಮ ಮೇಲೆ ನಮ್ಮವ್ರು ಇಟ್ಟಿರುವ ಭರವಸೆ, ಪ್ರೀತಿಗಳಿಂದ ಸಿಗುತ್ತದೆ..... '
ರಾಜಾ ಆನೆಯ ಬಳಿ ಹೋಗಿ ಹಣೆಗೊಂದು ಮುತ್ತನಿತ್ತ .. 
ಒಂದು ಸಣ್ಣ ಒಳ್ಳೆಯ ಮಾತು, ಸ್ಪರ್ಶ, ನಗು ಬದುಕಿನ ಹಾದಿಯ ಬದಲಿಸಬಲ್ಲುದು .... 

ಬದುಕು ಪ್ರೀತಿ ಅಷ್ಟೇ ....... ಬದುಕಲು, ಬದುಕಿಸಲು, ಬದುಕನ್ನ ಬದುಕಿಸಲು

ಜೀವನಕ್ಕಿರುವ ಮೂರು ಘಟ್ಟಗಳ ಪರಿಚಯ 
೧ #ಹುಟ್ಟು * ಸಂಬಂಧಿಕರಿಗೆ ತಿಳಿಯಬೇಕಾದದ್ದು
೨ #ಬದುಕು * ನಮಗೆ ತಿಳಿಯಬೇಕಾದದ್ದು
೩ #ಸಾವು * ಲೋಕಕ್ಕೆ ತಿಳಿಯಬೇಕಾದದ್ದು

A woman baked chapatti (roti) for members of her family and an extra one for a hungry passerby. 

She kept the extra chapatti on the window sill, for whosoever would take it away. Every day, a hunchback came and took away the chapatti. 
Instead of expressing gratitude, he muttered the following words as he went his way: 

“ ‪#The_Evil_yoU_Do_Remains_with_yoU‬: 
‪#The_Good_yoU_Do_Comes_Back_to_yoU‬! ” 

This went on, day after day. 
Every day, the hunchback came, picked up the chapatti and uttered the words:
“The evil you do, remains with you: 
The good you do, comes back to you!” 

The woman felt irritated.

“Not a word of gratitude,” 
she said to herself… 

“Everyday this hunchback utters this jingle! What does he mean?”

One day, exasperated, she decided to do away with him. 
“I shall get rid of this hunchback,”
she said. 
And what did she do? 
She added poison to the chapatti she prepared for him! 

As she was about to keep it on the window sill, her hands trembled. “What is this I am doing?”  she said. 
Immediately, she threw the chapatti into the fire, prepared another one and kept it on the window sill. 
As usual, the hunchback came, picked up the chapatti and muttered the words: 
“The evil you do, remains with you: The good you do, comes back to you!”

The hunchback proceeded on his way, blissfully unaware of the war raging in the mind of the woman. Every day, as the woman placed the chapatti on the window sill, she offered a prayer for her son who had gone to a distant place to seek his fortune. 
For many months, she had no news of him.. She prayed for his safe return.

That evening, there was a knock on the door. As she opened it, she was surprised  to find her son standing in the doorway. He had grown thin and lean. His garments were tattered and torn. He was hungry, starved and weak. 

As he saw his mother, he said, “Mom, it’s a miracle I’m here. While I was but a mile away, 
I was so famished that I collapsed. I would have died, but just then an old hunchback passed by. 
I begged of him for a morsel of food, and he was kind enough to give me a whole chapatti. 

As he gave it to me, he said, 
“This is what I eat everyday  : today, I shall give it to you, for your need is greater than mine!” 

” As the mother heard those words, her face turned pale. 
She leaned against the door for support. 
She remembered the poisoned chapatti that she had made that morning. 
Had she not burnt it in the fire, 
it would have been eaten by her own son, and he would have lost his life! 

It was then that she realized the significance of the words: 

“The evil you do remains with you: 
The good you do, comes back to you!” 

‪#Moral‬:
Do good and Don’t ever stop doing good, even if it is not appreciated at that time.  

If you like this, share it with others and I bet so many lives would be touched . 

Share it and inspire others.

WHY MEN ARE SO HONEST!!!!!
 
 
  If you are female and reading this article then just realize the value of a man; and if male, then feel proud after reading it! 

 "One day, while a woodcutter was cutting a branch of a tree above a river, his axe fell into the river.

When he cried out, the Lord appeared and asked, "Why are you crying?"

The woodcutter replied that his axe has fallen into water and he needed the axe to make his living.

The Lord went down into the water and reappeared with a golden axe. "Is this your axe?" the Lord asked.

The woodcutter replied, "No." 

The Lord again went down and came up with a silver Axe. "Is this your axe?" the Lord asked.

Again, the woodcutter replied, "No."

The Lord went down again and came up with an iron Axe. "Is this your axe?" the Lord asked.

The woodcutter replied, "Yes." 

The Lord was pleased with the man's honesty and gave him all three axes to keep, and the woodcutter went home happy. 

Some time later the woodcutter was walking with his wife along the riverbank, and his wife fell into the river.

When he cried out, the Lord again appeared and asked him, "Why are you crying?"

"Oh Lord, my wife has fallen into the water!"

The Lord went down into the water and came up with ANGELINA JOLIE.

"Is this your wife?" the Lord asked.

"Yes," cried the woodcutter.

The Lord was furious. "You lied! That is an untruth!"

The woodcutter replied, "Oh, forgive me, my Lord. It is a misunderstanding. You see, if I had said 'no' toANGELINA JOLIE , You would have come up with CAMERON DIAZ. Then if I said 'no' to her, you would have come up with my wife. Had I then said 'yes,' you would have given me all three. Lord, I am a poor man, and am not able to take care of all three wives, so THAT'S why I said yes to ANGELINA JOLIE."

The moral of this story is: Whenever a man lies, it is for a good and honorable reason and for the benefit of others. 

That's our story, and we're sticking to it! -

"WE, MEN, ARE TRULY HONORABLE !!!"
