Once Buddha
was traveling with a few of his followers. While they were passing a lake,
Buddha told one of his disciples, "I am thirsty. Do get me some water from
the lake."
The disciple
walked up to the lake. At that moment, a bullock cart started crossing through
the lake.
As a result,
the water became very muddy and turbid.
The disciple
thought, "How can I give this muddy water to Buddha to drink?"
So he came
back and told Buddha, "The water in there is very muddy. I don't think it is
fit to drink."
After about
half an hour, again Buddha asked the same disciple to go back to the lake. The
disciple went back, and found that the water was still muddy. He returned and
informed Buddha about the same.
After
sometime, again Buddha asked the same disciple to go back. This time, the
disciple found the mud had settled down, and the water was clean and clear. So
he collected some water in a pot and brought it to Buddha.
Buddha
looked at the water, and then he looked up at the disciple and said, "See
what you did to make the water clean. You let it be, and the mud settled down
on its own, and you have clear water."
Your mind is
like that too ! When it is disturbed, just let it be. Give it a little time. It
will settle down on its own.
You don't
have to put in any effort to calm it down. It will happen. It is effortless.
Having
'Peace of Mind' is not a strenuous job, it is an effortless process👌so keep ur mind cool and have a great life ahead...
Never leave
your close ones.
If you find few
faults in them just close your eyes
And remember
the best time you spent together because “Affection is more important than perfection”
Neither you
can hug yourself nor you can cry on your own shoulder.
Life is all
about living for one another, so live with those who love you the most...
Relations
cannot be understood by the Language of Money...
Because, Some
Investments Never Give Profit But They Make us rich...!
Family n
Friends are such Investments
