Me, My Guru - Ramayana and Rama - Indian Mythology





Contd.....

Ramayana and Rama - Indian Mythology


“Still confusing maam” said someone from left.


“Well, let’s see it this way. Suppose life to be a train. You take a train to Madras from Hyderabad. You are ‘destined’ to reach Madras if you sit and travel in that time till the end. But you get down at Vijayawada. Taking Madras train is ‘destined’ but your decision to get down at Vijayawada is the ‘present karma’ that will decide how your life takes a turn because of this decision. Once a decision is taken, it becomes karma – a seed that will reap fruits or effects according to its quality and then how you deal with it will decide your next course of travel”.


She stopped looking at us with a look “did you get it now?”


Most of us didn’t and may be our silence said it all.


“Forget about it today. Atleast are you clear about questions with regards to Rama and his acts” she asked.


“Yes there we are clearer this time” said many.


There seemed to something ‘more’ to learn always! The more we learned, the more questions we seemed to get and have. Is it good or bad, I don’t know.


Knowing or understanding something certainly gave a high of getting a new and different perspective many times. At the time, questions that remained unanswered or answers yet not understood left a sort of gap in us.


But may be we were not ‘yet ready’ to understand those questions or answers yet!


I’ll keep coming back for more questions to be answered and understand for sure! I’ll understand much more than what I’ve till date for sure too! This ‘knowing’ was good enough for me to relax and take leave of her place. Looking forward to see the next twist that ‘our destiny’ was to give to us..........
