Common statement that I get ot hear often is
“I hear xyz talk/discourse regularly on TV, see/watch all episodes of
Mahadev/Krishna (God knows what other ‘Godly’ serial is aired), go to
Shirdi/Tirupathi/some temple once a week/quarter/yearly regularly, read all
religious messages forwarded in whatsapp, am in xyz group (considered
spiritual) in FB/whatsapp or some social site and like and yet my life is
miserable as ever”.
Others may not say they are miserable but
flaunt these acts ‘itself as’ achievements or as proofs to their being ‘good’
or ‘great souls’ following religious rules/traditions.
If it were to be true your mobile/simcard
would be enlightened by now. Your Google would’ve become ‘living God’ (it is,
to many already). I am not asking you to ‘NOT DO’ these things/acts. I am not
against them. I am not for it either. But I am just saying “simply doing them
will get you nowhere. They wouldn’t change the course of your destiny. Your
wish can’t be fulfilled by these acts. As explained many times, we
receive/don’t receive everything in our life based on our attitudes and
character. “Your character writes your destiny”. And these small acts don’t
change your attitudes or character in any way – in fact they may harm you more
than doing goo. Yes – it is true! Because we get to fall into the assumption
trap that we’ve done enough to be ‘good’ and deserve only ‘good’ henceforth in
life. We assume we’ve fulfilled the criteria or done essential duties to
receive our bonus.
But just these acts don’t increase our
qualification to receive our ‘bonus’.
Then what does?
