Guest guest Posted August 10, 2006 Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 My dear friends and like minded persons LIFE A BOON OR? -----------AND HAPPINESS? Some one in the Group started mentioning that life is a “boon” or a “gift” etc. I take this opportunity to appreciate his realization. My eye brows were, however, up when he put a question as to how he could be happier and tips for the same. I was to search for an answer as to which matter on this earth can really bring him HAPPINESS. Many a times I see people expressing their sufferings. In the field of astrology being a person from astrologer’s family, I have seen many people wooing for some reason or the other. Rarely I found people expressing at least a little degree of satisfaction or consider themselves as gifted persons. Most of us, may be, it is a human psychology, are habituated to say that we are lacking in a particular thing or matter or we suffer for want of a matter etc. The list remains endless and even in one case our ambition gets fulfilled, the gap is filled up with some other want. Some times I see people throwing blame on Lord for no reason and expressing total dissatisfaction that the LORD DID NOT MAKE HIM HAPPY AT ALL. Lord has granted us ears, nose, tongue, eyes and what not – everything that is required for a comfortable life, but I really doubt whether there is some one who could express his gratitude for all that he posses and the gifts granted by God. We do not recognize the value of these PRICELESS items of the body. We do not hesitate to blame some one for any absence of the part of the body or which made us to feel what the deficiency is. To say, as long as we possess all parts of the body in tact; a wife; a son; a daughter; a good job; social status etc, we rarely DO NOT notice the value of them. In spite of possessing all needy, we feel we are lacking something – something which is difficult to express. My appeal to all of you is only that, please recollect the gifts granted by the Lord and ever remain thankful to him while never expressing grief on what we do not have. Remaining thankful is noticing the gifts while expressing grief is nothing but a curse we are facing. Therefore let us EVER AND FOREVER REMAIN IN THE STAGE OF ENJOYMENT – NOTICING THE BOONS. The second point is HAPPINESS – I am also treating this as a million dollar question ever after scratching my head several times as to how I can any tip to make any one Happier. It looks like next to impossibility. I can not purchase HAPPINESS FOR ANY ONE in Kilograms weight. Wherefrom and how I can make some one HAPPIER or suggest a tip for ever remaining happy. I feel Happiness is in-born. If some one feels that he is HAPPY – he is really happy. A few years ago, on my journey to uphill of Himalayas, I found a beggar near Neelkanth Mahadeva Mandir. He was with a smiling face when someone offered him one or two biscuits and equally with a smiling face when others even do not stop at him. I observed an unusual amount of HAPPINESS in his face even when we was in rags, shelter less, and exposed to all weather conditions at the top of the Hill. Let us not try to sail and cross the endless ocean of un-happiness. It is a never ending business. Let us also take the life as a gift or a boon – surely each of us are gifted with some unique qualities. Therefore let us remain ever grateful to the creator. HAPPINESS IS ONE SUCH ELEMENT NO ONE CAN STEAL THE SAME FROM US AND IT IS ALSO A BOON OF LIFE, PROVIDED, WE MAKE OURSELVES HAPPY AND REMAIN CONTENDED. Truthfully respecting the Lotus Feet of Great Grand Father Shri Krishna Dwipaayan Veda Vyas, The Great Sage Agasya, Holy Maharishi Sandeepani and Vamsa Rishi Gowthama, I take leave of you.
