Stories and all - Man and the frogs
Sometimes it doesn’t
happen as we plan! Then? Then it is very good as His will is there in it. This
also you’ve experienced (refer to the comments section for when you did Reiki
and they didn’t get fulfilled). They turned out even better! So why worry in
such cases!
Both ways, only what is
‘right and good’ for you, happens. Learn from your past experiences. Build your
trust on them, work on that frog called ‘fear’ and remove it. Also remove the
‘frog’ of ‘ignorance’. Your ‘mind pond’ is silent. You experience happiness,
peace and satisfaction!
Ignorance |
The seed of every fear
of yours is ‘ignorance’. So, remove ignorance. Develop clarity of thought.
Shift the way you ask questions and apply those answers. To remove them is very
easy. Just remove. But when you see them for ‘only two’, you think it is
ok. You let them stay. After all, they are just two cute frogs. And then,
suddenly, their sounds become deafening!
What's in for us in holding on to ignorance? |
Who helps the man in removing those two frogs?
ONLY ONE LAD! - The man goes to all and sundry seeking guidance and redemption from his pain and suffering. He goes from one master to another seeking happiness, peace and contentment. And all it takes is ONLY ONE MASTER who removes both his frogs from his self. And it is symbolically told or shown as ONE LAD here in this story.
Master is one who is telling you that all the problem is caused by only these two frogs within - fear and ignorance. He KNOWS it and is showing you various ways to free yourself of it and yet.......
So beware and be alert
of these ‘two frogs’ – fear and ignorance!
The same explanation
should be applied for health issues, financial, social and global issues too!
Our hell and heaven are created by these two frogs only! Remove them.
Our
choices are made because of and by these two frogs only! Remove them and your
perception changes! Your clarity of thought develops!
These two frogs are also
the basis of our ‘dharma’ and principles. Do away with them!
The activity of
these two frogs results in the generation of our desires. Throw them away! Then
the desires lose their power to hurt you. Then like Krishna, Gandhi, Ratan
Tata, your desire will set you free, not bind you! Remove these two frogs and
like Rama you can have your intention manifest with a single thought!
Think about it!

(For all your future reference :I am encapsulating the same again in one go.........also read the other stories this way. You'll see the depth of the same story differently. Every character, scene can be deciphered. It's like you are pealing layer after layer to get the meaning out of it.......and I haven't completely explained this story.......there is more to it......keep peeling it and savouring the taste of understanding layer by layer......)
# trust, ego, pain and suffering, attachments, we are what we read, ignorance, fear, divisiveness, upanishads, oneness, whole, abundance, happiness, divinity, selfishness, cause of pain and suffering,

Homework : Now take one story from the previous posts and understand it this way! And come back with your understanding. Let's pool our understanding to get a larger understanding. Lets move from lower understanding to higher understanding together......
Questions addressed :
- Why after doing reiki for so long also I am not happy?
- How long should I heal myself?
- "I didn't understand this story. Please explain"
Points stressed :
- "I am fed up of healing. I want to stop healing" - good know the reason and do so!
- Heal now or later. Choice is yours. No questions asked. No punishment given. Never judged by anyone.
- The punishment given is by self to self by our acts and choices. You take decisions and you alone bear the consequences of your decisions.
- Good or bad - we are reapers of our choices and destiny. Our karma is ours to bear!
- God, Master, Universe, Life can only give you opportunities and techniques to better your perceptions and ability to deal with life. They can't do it for you!

Greetings MamππΊπ·
I realized yesterday night that from Nov 2018 to May 2019 or even more I had so much trouble sleeping, even after lying down for 2-3 hours I would not slip into deep sleep, mosquitoes would bite suddenly or some sound from outside would always disturb my sleep but since past 4-5 months and specially since we started doing LC I have been having extremely peaceful sleep. Its just heaven! ππ΄π
It gives so much confidence and energy for the next day...
Feels great full and blessed...
It's the first time I have this heard this frog story - very beautiful & powerful...but I hv been living it all my life as a child, boy, man & still growing thru it... many times I hv been scared, but whenever I wud face the fear, I wud learn & grow... & whenever I avoided the fear, it wud come back in some other form or other... fear is a key, if faced unlocks our ignorance... So an acknowledgement of our ignorance & the subsequent fear helps us to face the fear...and once we begin to encounter it we learn to accept the situation as it is on its merrit & this for me has been the great learning...and Yes once we have clarity of what 'is', what can be done or cannot be done, we learn to remove the fear, I will say the fear drops & there is a fitting response & finally there is peace... Then even if we fail to get what we desired, we accept the result with grace & love...
When I was in college we were playing a badminton match...there was a lot of childish rivalry against the other team... I was playing a crucial match & was scared to loose as it meant a loss of face... I suddenly realised that it was hampering my game, I decided to let go of the fear & fully focus on every moment as if nothing else mattered!! And this turned out to be the most entertaining and best game... I really played very well much beyond my expectations...in the end I lost but strangely I felt very happy & peaceful that I cud not have done any better...
With love & gratitude

So LC drove away the mosquitoes? πππ Just joking.
I'm still trying to understand how it's only fear and ignorance and nothing else. I need to meditate on this for a few weeks. Thank you Guruji. Thank you Reiki
Lol ya, may be, I'm in sleep so can't feel them atleast... Once ur in deep sleep, I guess system doesn't recognise those small prickly pains
I feel - Fear & Ignorance here are like Umbrella terms in this context, Sooner or later you will realize that everything will fall under these 2 categories only. Anyways lets see what discoveries you make thru your Meditation... no harm in trying and understanding things in thru different perspective
Fear is mind made stuff, a negative energy that causes a heaviness with its presence...it occupies our space & makes us feel bound as it comes from either the past or future... When we let it go by facing it or acknowledging the cause or ignorance, then we feel the freedom of our space, our being...that is love...
Love is rooted in the present & there is freedom...there is peace & bliss... & "heaven"... the real heaven within us which is beyond space and time...
Even in the story of Alexander & the Master, Alexander realises his ego creating "hell" for him & letting it go, to embrace "heaven"...
Putting it simply another way
Fear is Hell... Ignorance is the cause behind it
Love is heaven... Acceptance of the reality leads us to it...
With love & gratitude
