On waiting!

On waiting!

There is a 'waiting period' between our wish and its fulfillment!

That "period of waiting" that we use to go between hope and fear is the worst part of "waiting" - not because it is, but because it puts us into open. 

It challenges our "faith" that we say and declare we have.

It exposes us to the fear we never expected knew existed in us!

And it reflects our weakness like never before...

We are not happy to know that - be that - realize that and accept that!

And that comes out as anger.

And this anger we generate we think and hold our Guru/Reiki/God responsible!!?? What a pity! And what clarity of thought?

There are few who see this. They see their fear as their own doing and so go within and work on it. They work on their anger!

The waiting period becomes a beautiful period of 'healing self' that is exposed to themselves at that time!

They "receive" "GRACE"

Others just have their wish fulfilled and remain as they were - before...

How to turn every situation to our benefit?

Difference between Grace and receiving

Attitudes that decide Grace, happiness, ingratitude, anger, selfishness so on....

A mile stone!

A mile stone!

Every stone crossed tells us the distance we have traveled so far!

It reminds us of the journey already made!

It also is the remainder of our hope and wish winning over our doubt of our capabilities...

It means we had the potential and we can reach that - provided we take up the journey as per prescribed norm and in the set route...


If we had taken up this journey but taken an another route, would we still be here? That is also the question that this 'mile stone' is putting at us and answering it for us...

We are where we are because of all decisions .....and where we go from here depends entirely on our decisions from 'here'...

This 'milestone' doesn't mean 'the end of the journey' - it means you have one more milestone to reach up to - walk towards - go for .....

Whether you choose to stop here, wait here for sometime, unwind here for sometime is for you to decide.......

but this certainly is not the end of the road........


# milestone, success, journey, working on

How do we view and handle every achievement, possession in life.?

What does any attitude healed mean?

What is the need to heal when everything is fine.....?

On faith and fear!

On faith and fear!

Wherever there is doubt there is no 'faith'!

Wherever there is no faith there is fear!

And wherever there is fear there is doubt!

Blessing that turned into curse – Me, My Guru

So when you look at someone who has material abundance in spite of his bad deeds and attitudes, know that you are not looking at the complete picture. If the crime is grave, then the pain and punishment inflicted on the wrong doer is such that no one would pity them for what they are undergoing because the situation would be thus. No one would buy their pain and suffering too as it is wrapped in abundance! It pains in a place which can’t be revealed to others. That is the justice of the Lord!

We didn’t know whether to be glad or be a bit terrified. But when we actually looked into such people’s lives about whom we had complains, yes we did find this truth. I did come to know of it while I exchanged my case study with others. Sometimes, even after we are shown that the justice is met, there is no rejoicing. This was one such time.

We knew this applied to all – all included us too – and that set us thinking of our blessing and curses.

Lord Vishnu took a form of a beautiful damsel called Mohini and met Bhasmasur as he was going through the forest towards his palace. He fell in love with her and sought her hand in marriage. She agreed on a condition that he matches his dance steps with hers. He agreed, amused. She started to dance and he followed suit. As he became engrossed in the dance along with Mohini, Mohini placed her hand on her head and Bhasmasura  his hand on his head too and lo! He immediately was on fire and turned to ash! So when a wrong doer seeks for a boon, it is granted but that very blessing is the curse that he deserves for his deeds and attitudes. ***

Lobhi ko lobh aur balwaan ko ahankaan use maartha hai.

Greedy meets his end/downfall because of his greed and a powerful person meets his death because of his arrogance.

Just because a person is bad, God doesn’t stop listening to his prayers. Everyone’s prayers are answered. If a wrong doer does penance or pooja (devotional ritual), then in exchange, he is blessed with his asking. But his “attitude” and “karma” catch up with him through that very blessing that he sought. How ironic is that! 

And people think they are smart enough to cheat XX and God! How pathetic and shallow is their vision of God and what arrogance to think that in exchange for their “little offerings” they not only seek opulence, but also think they can get away from their karma or destiny. Such naïve webs these fools weave! 


(*** Stories in Indian Mythology are just not woven to entertain. They are not works of fiction or some writers fanciful works! They are works that educate people on how to be and how not to be. They teach the consequences of our every act and attitude! They show with examples the cause and effect in our lives. They tell us how our choices make or break our fate.)

Points to ponder : 

Our attitudes reflect our 'karma' and destiny! And we carry our attitudes with us all the time........so wherever we go our network follows....

How justified is our blaming God/guru for our hardships?

Unless we own up our role in our fate, we can never walk the path to correct it even if an opportunity is served on plate! We end up saying "I am fine, it's just that I want XYZ wish to be fulfilled and so see no need for 'self healing'! " WOW!

# fate and destiny, on self healing, Indian Mythology, Mohini Basmasura, blessing that turns into curse, we get what we deserve even through what we desire, karma

Yes, like that Brahmin we seek our punishments through our desires! We think we are smart enough to exploit and fool people and Universe and then bam! 

What we ask is given to us and that exactly is ‘the punishment’ we are receiving for our karma”.

“I am sorry can you rephrase it? I didn’t understand what you said!”

“He means – we meet our fate in the very road we took to avoid it!” she said coming back to us.

Guruji it is still not clear” I said.

“Basmasura – demon very powerful out of greed and ego wanted to become ‘all powerful’ and create havoc in the world. So he did intense tapas and sought boon from Lord Shiva “Grant me boon that on whomsoever’s head I place my hand may he be burnt”. Shiva gave him the boon.

All ‘devas’ – or demo-gods were terrified and asked Shiva as to how he could give such a wish to such a tyrant. Lord smiled and said “I didn’t give him a blessing. I let him ‘choose his mode of death’” and all ‘devas’ were amazed when they heard it.

Points worth noticing : 

We always get WHAT WE DESERVE  even through  what we desire!?

No body is smart enough to escape his/her karma!

One who calls God /Reiki/Guru names for his suffering is only increasing his balance of negative karma.

“No! It is complete and so is the story” said Raji knowingly. 

We all went silent for some time and went through the contents of the story and our complaints once again. 

Each face lit up differently. Each smile told of a subjective understanding. Unsaid aloud we all decided to share our outlook and understanding with each other! Each explained his point and the next caught up with him and thus it rolled and how it rolled!

“The dog was too clever to give a simple punishment of getting him whipped et like in exchange for the beatings he received”.

“Yes and the Brahmin out of greed accepted this happily. How greed and selfishness blinds our vision and power to see the good and bad”

“We are not punished by our deeds or our karma! We are not punished or cursed by people whom we have wronged! We are not punished by God as most of us believe! 

We are cursed by “our attitudes”!

“No – we are not cursed by our attitudes! Our attitudes are our curse!”

Impromptu we all clapped!

This was so beautiful revelation – especially when we arrived at it on our own!

“Not all of punishment comes as disease or loss. Some are clothed as ‘gifts’, ‘posts’, ‘positions’ – in short everything that we desire and aspire for!

But everyone in the court was confused. How come such a ‘promotion’ for such a heartless act of his? Why would dog ‘bless’ him with ‘abundance’ in exchange for his act of anger? When asked Rama turned to the dog smiling and asked it to explain instead. The dog started to explain “In my previous life, I was a Kulapathi and out of arrogance swindled money from the temple accounts and ill-treated others – in short I abused my post, the result of which is right in front of you. I am born a dog. A highly respected Brahmin born and living a dog’s life! What can be a bigger curse than this that a brahmin be born as a dog? So, I wished him to have that post and knowing his nature he’ll abuse his post and the consequence would be this ‘disgusting dog’s life!”

Everyone there were surprised and satisfied that the justice was met. The ‘wrong’ had been punished. Rama just smiled knowingly and the dog left happy and glad that the right punishment has been given out to his wrong-doer!” She left to attend a phone  call and we were left with her story and explanation rolled in one.

“I still didn’t understand her point!” boomed a voice from behind.

“Story is not yet complete” replied a voice from thither!

Points to be understood : 

Punishment always need not come back as some loss, receiving some form of abundance can also be a form of punishment

Why some people are made Reiki Masters or any spiritual master when they are not good especially with their intentions and when they are cheating people and students?

Some "elevated posts" are also form of punishments...
