Once upon a time a guy came up to a guru, and start grumbling about all his problems, troubles, difficulties and problems he was going through. He had recently lost his job with no reason. His relationship was in deep mess. Nobody is trying to understand him. Everything is going wrong and he had doing nothing wrong. And all over the conversation he asked to guru, why all these things are happening with me ?.
I am sure you all of the people can relate your situation with that guy was going through. Guru told him, Look man do what you can do to sort it out. If it's your fault correct it, if it's someone else fault and the person is with in you accescs discuss with him, communicate with them. Very often however what we go through is neither of our fault nor the fault of someone else.
For example, a serious disease that we go through, We didn't do anything wrong to get it and nobody else did anything wrong to have us get it . How do we deal with it ? And here what we do -
A little boy was once came running to his mother and asked her "what are you doing, mom ?" She replied, I am making a beautiful embroidered design on this nice cloth. The little boy looked up the cloth, securely held with the wooden ring the hoop and compalin, A designs !! "All i can see just some coloured threads like yellow, green, blue, black. All tangled up and messed up with each other, All complications and you called it design?". The mother picked up the boy and put him on her lap and said to him. Now look at it my son and the boy saw a beautiful design, an incredible pattern, a sytematic plan and layout evolving on this cloth. The mother said to the boy when you look the cloth from your side, all you see are mess but when you look cloth from my side, all you see a beautiful design, pattern and plan .
Ladies and gentlemen when we go through the helpless, overwhelming challenges in our life for no fault of ours or no fault of somebody else and we cannot do anything to sort out it. If we see and look it at from our point of view, all we see is a mess. All the situation and events are tangled and jumpled up to create that mess. But if we see the same situation from life's point of views or god's point of views, we see a beautuful design, a pattern evolving in our lives. Infact, for a beautiful design of embroidery happen on one side, you cannot avoid the mess on another side. And it's just the nature of embroidery such is the nature of life as well.
This outlook actually gives us a very deep inner sense of our strength and fortitude to face such helpless, overwhelming challenges in our life.
