Me, My Guru – On purpose of life!

“That’s what this story is about” emphasized Kshama.

                                       

“And yet, it is not clear” said I.

Kshama looked at our Guru and pleaded “Guruji please!”

Our Guru smiled and replied “Whatever is your desire or dream, just include others in it and make it bigger. If you want to make a name in dance, then make teaching it to under privileged / cancer patients / physically challenged / or someone close to your heart be part of that movement.

Take a number – say to teach at least 1000 of such people in 5 years. That’ll become purpose of your life.

Whatever is your calling, whatever is the thing you love doing, just do it in an area where your selflessness is expressed.  And that then will automatically become ‘purpose of your life’.

If you are earning and living for yourself and your family alone then it is considered ‘a sin’ as per shashtra too. Look at all the people who are earning just for themselves. They find emptiness at the peak of their careers and end up abusing their lives getting addicted to some form of ‘self destructing habit’. This emptiness then becomes cause for depression and also suicides in many cases. Even dogs and pigs live for food and sex. Then how are we different from them if we lead the same form of life? We can think. We know ‘deep down’ that we are capable of expressing our ‘highest nature’. As long as we stop ourselves from expressing our ‘greatest possibility’ we would feel dejected, irritated, listless, hopeless, loveless and purposeless.
