Guest guest Posted January 14, 2002 Report Share Posted January 14, 2002 A woman came out of her house and saw 3 old men with long white beardssitting in her front yard. She did not recognize them. She said "I don'tthink I know you, but you must be hungry. Please come in and have somethingto eat." "Is the man of the house home?", they asked. "No", she replied. "He's out." "Then we cannot come in", they replied. In the evening when her husband came home, she told him what had happened. "Go tell them I am home and invite them in!" The woman went out and invited the men in" "We do not go into a House together," they replied. "Why is that?" she asked. One of the old men explained: "His name is Wealth," he said pointing toone of his friends, and said pointing to another one, "He is Success, and Iam Love." Then he added, "Now go in and discuss with your husband which oneof us you want in your home." The woman went in and told her husband what was said. Her husband wasoverjoyed. "How nice!!", he said. "Since that is the case, let us inviteWealth. Let him come and fill our home with wealth!" His wife disagreed. "My dear, why don't we invite Success?" Their daughter-in-law was listening from the other corner of the house.She jumped in with her own suggestion: "Would it not be better to inviteLove? Our home will then be filled with love!" "Let us heed our daughter-in-law's advice," said the husband to his wife. "Go out and invite Love to be our guest." The woman went out and asked the 3 old men, "Which one of you is Love?Please come in and be our guest." Love got up and started walking toward the house. The other 2 also got upand followed him. Surprised, the lady asked Wealth and Success: "I onlyinvited Love, Why are you coming in?" The old men replied together: "If you had invited Wealth or Success, theother two of us would've stayed out, but since you invited Love, wherever Hegoes, we go with him. Wherever there is Love, there is also Wealth andSuccess!!!!!!" MY WISH FOR YOU... -Where there is pain, I wish you peace and mercy. -Where there is self-doubting, I wish you a renewed confidence inyour ability to work through it. -Where there is tiredness, or exhaustion, I wish you understanding,patience, and renewed strength. -Where there is fear, I wish you love, and courage. You have two choices right now: 1. Delete this email. 2. Invite love by sharing this story with all the people you careabout. I hope you will choose #2. I did.

Guest guest Posted January 16, 2002 Report Share Posted January 16, 2002 Jai Maa I get revealing dreams and recntly I have repeatedly dreamt of Chinnamasta devi. Last few nights it was Annapurnadevi at Kashi ( I have visited that temple with my parents 25 years ago), I presume its a kind of beckoning and have decided a trip to Benares. It is a long way to just follow a dream...so tentatively I plan Benares and Hardwar and any other important temples in the region. I have only 15 days leave. I would appreciate your help very much in chalking out a list of important temples feasible to travel to in the region as also suggestions of mode of transport. Many thanks Jai Maa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
