Me, My Guru – On doing good!

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?’.

(Those who don't have much time can just go through the 'rose plant' posts to understand giving in every relationship and leave the results for time to show....we can't condition the results...)
