Me, My Guru – On doing good!
I am neither writing anyone’s fate nor running the Universe. Then why behave or think or suffer like one?” our Guruji completed her response to Rahul and Aziz’s outburst of anguish.
We
were stunned. I was stunned. I went home and read that ‘Grandpa and boy story’
like 10 times. It was a simple story. We could’ve read it in some forwards too
(as some said). We simply would’ve forwarded it and replied it with thumbs up
emoji. But, here was the one who never forwarded any ‘good thoughts’ or
‘stories’ on any social platform. And yet or may be because she didn’t she
lived it! She took the story and applied it. No doubt, that made her what she
was. And us choosing to say ‘I forwarded it to 10 groups maam’, ‘I received it
or my mom told this story maam’, ‘but what about turtles that died maam’,
‘isn’t it sad that so many turtles are dying because of climate change?’. These
or such would be our response!!? We would take the topic away from its essence.
And in that lay our ego. And in that lay our cause of pain and suffering. And
in that lay our denial to see solution. We would then cry saying ‘maam, why are
you not coming to our rescue?’.
