Me, my Guru – Karna gives now!

Me, my Guru – Karna gives now!




Our Guru stopped here and signaled for tea. She asked us to come up with our understanding. We did. And the points that each one of us noticed in the story were different. When we pooled all our take from the story, it baffled us and simultaneously made each one of us richer.

Now, I knew why she asked us to share our understandings and experiences with each other!!!

“We should give immediately – right now!”

“Like Bheema there will be people finding fault with our giving. But, that shouldn’t stop us from giving”.

“Like Yudhistra, we should have detachment while looking at facts, especially about a person who is not our friend or dear to us”



“Like Yudhistra, we should learn, and appreciate from our rivals too. That is the quality of a person who practices dharm.”

“From Brahmin, we should learn to go at the right time when seeking the help of any kind”.

I understood from this post
Sharing our understanding is important . Many a times I posted a comment in the blog with the understanding of that particular day but today when I read them my understanding is totally different. So they act as a markers for mee.
When we give we should give without attaching any reasoning, logic and return value to it .
People will be there to taunt us but we should continue to do our work . ( while reading about what Beema said I remembered mam saying in one of the classes don’t stop sadhan even if someone asks you to do so).
Learning from enemy and detachment these are some more.
