One gentleman called up. He was crying and feeling very bad. His business partner had cheated him in business. He said that it’s a very bad world. Accepted, at that point of time, I understand, how he was feeling. After two years, he had recovered and made money again and still he kept saying it’s a bad world. So one day I said finally and you are a part of this world. If it’s bad, what you are? As per you, it’s a depressed world because you are depressed. If one person cheated you, others have been good and that’s why you could earn back. If everyone was bad, then you would not be able to stand again. He was caught without guards and he went silent. he asked then, what he could do? If you are happy, its a happy world. If you are kind it’s a kind world. You do not have to worry about changing world. You have to think about how I can be happier, how I can be kinder. How I can share my kindness.
So next day, he made a list of all the things, what he could do to be happy and kind. So he started talking better to his people, family, parents and servants. Suddenly he started feeling peace and further happiness. He thought that it’s working so let’s practice kindness too. He started helping people and whatever you give you get too. He realized, so many were helping him. He also saw many more people helping others.
Then he realized, because his own focus was on bad, he could see only what bad was happening. But when he shifted his focus to good, he saw good more than bad.
This world is like a ware house. We enter into it with a flash light. This ware house has everything. But we search as per our mindset. So where ever our flash light goes depending on what we are searching for, we see that. So if we have to see different things, we have to start looking for different things. We will never see everything or we need to reach to that stage of silent observer where we will see everything then we will see good also behind that bad. For that then we need faith that how divine is working behind every good and bad!
So be happy, be kind.!
