Agreement

NPL -DAY 14

Some Agreements  in life can be one of the hardest  things we will ever do. It can also be one of the most life changing things as well. When does Revolution happen? Agreement  with god to implement his teachings in life brings REVOLUTION and it can be one of the biggest challenge. Beneath all differences of doctrine or discipline there exists a fundamental agreement as to the simple, absolute essentials in religion.

"भगवान् को मानना और भगवन की मानना में बहुत फरक है"

Guruji discussed the following four 

1.Disappear(विलीन):

When salt is put in the Ocean it disappears or vanishes. 

2. Pervasive (व्यापक):

When sugar is dissolved in milk, it sweetens the milk. Just by tasting we can say that the milk contains sugar.

We cannot see but the flavor of sugar is there in it. 

3. Unique (विशिष्ट):

When river meets the ocean, it becomes unique and exceptional. 

4. Purity ( विशुद्ध):

When the soul is devoted to the Almighty God, it becomes pure. 

A man was on his way home. When he reached, he found that his house was on fire and started crying. At that time another man came and asked him," Why are you crying as you son has already done an agreement to sell the house". After listening to this, the man stopped crying. His son then arrives and asks his father why he had not called the fire brigade to save the house from fire. The father replied that he has come to know that his son has done an agreement to sell the house. The son replies that he had not yet done any agreement. The father again started crying that his house was on fire. 

In life, we have to do an agreement. Agreement with God to follow his preachings. Do we want to become Unique or do we want to become pure? Even after earning Rs 50,000 Crores we can only become unique but not pure. We can grow by becoming pure.

The person who is satisfied with whatever he has is pure and the person who has everything in the world might not be satisfied at all. 

To become unique we have to spend our whole life time as there are many competitors, how much ever your run you will never be able to reach your destination. To become pure it just takes a minute. 

In the journey of life we travel with our luggage. But when the station of death comes, we cannot take even a single needle along with us. So why are we running behind money and worldly things? We have to stop somewhere in the journey of life. We don't ask for coal in a diamond shop.

There was never a scientist who has died happily and there was never a saint who has died crying.

Life is like a sky where happiness is sunrise and sorrow is sunset. Happiness and sorrow are a part of our life. 

There was once a taxi driver in mumbai who had come to take the blessings of Guruji. He asked Guruji to show some way to earn money because of crisis. He used to earn Rs 200/- per day earlier, but now he earns only Rs. 100/- per day. He told Guruji that he does not want to earn extra for himself but there are few children near his house who wait for gifts from him everyday. He feels bad that he is not able to gift them.

So the taxi driver wanted to earn the money for charity. He followed what God said.

In case we get an unexpected profit, will we use the money for charity or would it add to our bank balance?

The thought to become Unique will never bring success along, but the thought to become pure will always bring success. 

We have to like whatever we have and also be happy with whatever we have. 

A stone becomes a statue if it comes in the hand of a sculptor. A dacoit (bad man) uses the stone to throw at others. A weak paralysed man will be unable to do both. 

Gautam Swami once asked Lord Mahavira, " Which is good- A man who is sleeping or a man who is awaken? " Lord Mahavira replied," If the man is living a sinful life, it is better he sleeps and a man doing good, must always be awake".

Once Ravan asked Kumbhkaran " You sleep for six months and then awaken. You are wasting your life sleeping." Kumbhkaran then replied," Brother, What have you gained by being awake and what have I lost by sleeping? You would not have become Ravan if you were sleeping".

The goal of becoming Pure will always lead to happiness. Lets keep the goal of becoming Pure and we will become unique. We should not have feelings of jealousy and ego against anyone, never use any bad words against anyone. Lets try to become Pure and we will feel for ourselves how much happiness it contains.

If you attain success in life, uphold your mind and if you get failure, uphold your heart so that you don't have depression, stress and attack.

Lets say yes to Agreement without any arguments.
