Few FAQs with Guru
(S – stands for student and G- stands for
Guru in this post)
S – Don’t you get angry the way students
treat you at times? How do you deal with it?
G – I also get upset. Like Krishna who killed
Shishupala at his 100th mistake. But till 99th mistake
Krishna was calm and poised. He just kept reminding Shishupala of his mistakes
but Krishna himself did not lose his temper, anger or peace of mind.
S – But still, we would lose our peace of
mind? Don’t you? How do you maintain it?
G – In a certain Superbazaar a man was
holding a toddler in his arms. The kid was crying away to glory. Everyone was
looking at the father of the child. But the father of the child was very calm
and kept repeating calmly “It’s ok Charles, just few more minutes and mom will
be here. Relax!” Few minutes later, the mother of the child came and calmed the
kid. One lady walked up to the woman and said “You are so lucky to have such an
understanding husband. He kept telling Charles, your kid to be calm all
through”. The mom answered surprised “But Charles is not my son’s name; it is
his father’s name”
Similarly, I just keep reminding myself,
only few more mistakes and I can send him away from myself. So, bear with it
for some more time.
S – So, do you also kill students after
their 100th mistake? (Student laughs as he asks this question)
G – No. I consider myself greater than
Krishna and so let my student commit 100 times more mistakes before I take some
action?
S – So you too kill them?

Questions addressed and points to be taken :
- How does a Guru address 'sins' of his students?
- What is the right way to address the wrong of any person in life?
- Errors and mistakes can be forgiven. But sins are not pardoned. But we need not do the job. Karma does it better than you and me put together!
- We reap the effects of our nature, attitude, character (or should I say characterlessness?). If they are good, our returns are good. If they are bad, our returns are bad.
- If one thinks he is right, then there is nothing to worry. He will reap as per his deeds which he supposes to be good anyway.
- But if he thinks it is right but if they are actually adharm or wrong/hurtful then he will not reap as per his 'assumed' belief but as per his acts and what they stand for!
- When we can confidently stand by our acts why fear to bear their consequences?
- Don't take it upon yourself to punish people who have wronged you. Let karma do its duty. You move on in your life!
Life Tip :
This garden tip would be very useful for gardening lovers....
Once you eat bananas, don't throw away their peel. Put them as manure for your potted plants and see the miracle unfold in front of your eyes........
Even those bananas which have become too dark for consumption, don't throw them away. Simply bury them in your pots and lo! What a wonder!
