One friend invited me to her place for a cup of tea. She has a nice, beautiful house, still while sitting there, there was an energy of restlessness. I could not say anything. She said that mainly she had called to discuss about how she feels uncomfortable (She mentioned what I was feeling) and she wants to feel peaceful. The energy of the house is defined by the energy of the people who are living there. So if she was feeling uncomfortable, her house also would feel same. In the mean while her maid servant brought some snacks and tea and there was some fear on her face. When she was leaving, my friend looked at the snacks, called her maid back and in a stern voice she asked, this is how I have trained you to serve? In the next incidence, one beggar came and rang the bell. Her servant shouted at him and said, do not ever come here.
I asked my friend why are you feeling restless and she said I do not know. Then she said that these servants have bothered me so much and after how she had served I am feeling so angry. And When I would leave, you would blast her? So when you have been little less kind to her, you are feeling bad. How about you treat her nicely and then see how you feel. She called up her servant, and asked if she had her evening tea or not and she replied no. My friend asked her to take 10 minutes break as we had everything, have a cup of tea and then come back. Immediately she was feeling better. Somehow, same beggar rang bell again, like heaven wanted to train her. She was about to shout and I asked her to treat him better. She asked him what did he want. She told him, I will not give you any money, but I can give you food. As her maid was on break, she stepped down with some biscuits and bread and a bottle of water. When she came back, she said that she was feeling extremely peaceful.
Often we wonder that we are trying to do kind acts to help others. But no! They are for own peace and happiness. When we are kind and helpful, we help ourselves. Universe will return Karmic fruits later, the way we feel would be different immediately.
Why it happens?
We all are a part of one Universal body and we all are connected. When someone is in pain, the pain is getting transmitted to everyone and when someone is in direct contact, the intensity of transmission is more. When we are kind, we lift that pain and we are able to give some peace. That energy of relief is immediately passed on to us too. So it is like helping own body part from some pain. We immediately feel better when we help someone else feeling better. Also it helps us in knowing ourselves as a better person.
So being kind and loving is our own requirement for a better life.
