Guest guest Posted December 2, 2006 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 Once there lived a millionaire Zamindar Mallu Sigh. He had a huge estate. In his estate he had a good number of parks, farms, farm houses, open lands, shops and malls and so on… He hired Mr.Roopak to manage his entire estate. Mr.Roopak took charge of the estate manger. He was managing the whole estate as if it were his own. As the days passed by, Mr.Roopak made lots of money stealthily. He became very important and influential in the entire area. He grew arrogant and egoistic and even started ignoring and disrespecting the millionaire Mallu Singh. At this stage what should be the action of Mr.Mallu over Mr.Roopak? Mr.Mallu Singh had two options. Either he had to oust Mr.Roopak or surrender to him. Now Mr.Mallu Singh is our Buddhi and Mr.Roopak is our mind. Buddhi handed over entire mundane affairs to the mind. Mind is behaving as if it were the owner of the entire estate. It is the time to dismiss the mind. Attain the Amanaska state.
