SUIT & SUFFERING!! !

 

A man had asked a tailor to make a beautiful suit for himself. The

suit was made & when the man tried it, he could not believe that, one

arm of the coat was long, the other was short, one leg of the trousers

was long and another was short. The man asked the tailor, " What kind

of suit have you made for me? This is ugly. " The tailor replied, " Sir,

nothing is wrong with the suit. The arm of the coat is little short,

but you can just pull your hand inside! " The man said, " Continuously

to keep the hand pulled inside is very difficult. But the tailor

justified, " You put your other hand outside. You also will have to do

the same thing with your legs. " The tailor further said, " It is such a

beautiful suit. I have worked day and night over it and you complain

about these small things! " So the poor fellow went out wearing the

suit, one hand & one leg pulled in ....limping on one side!! A couple

passing by saw him and the wife said, " Look at that poor fellow. He

seems to be paralyzed or crippled...! " However, the husband told his

wife, " Forget about that man, look at the suit; it is so beautiful !

What can the poor tailor do about it, when the man is like that. The

tailor has done his best for the crippled man !! "

 

Moral of the Story

 

Almost everybody in the world are wearing such coats and suffering

immensely. One hand has to be kept pulled in, another pulled out. Man

is not important, but the doctrines, philosophies, ideologies are

important. They are not for man, but man is for them; he has to fit

himself accordingly.

 

Friends, every idea that comes from the past is crippling our

consciousness. One has to learn the art of dying to everything that

has passed, so that, one can live in the present with totality,

without any burden. When the present moves, one also has to move,

because every present is becoming a past. The fresh, the present

has to be totally lived, and anything that hinders has to be dropped,

otherwise one has to go on suffering. One's entire life is destroyed

by such crippling suits. One will not be able to walk, nor sit, nor

talk. One has to go on adjusting himself for the suit. Friends, most

of us are in the same psychological condition...

 

Have a Relaxed & Stress-free day Toady & every day!!!
