Dear Team
For the past few days , I am working on a topic called Intentions and I came across this story in one of the books , I feel many of you might know this , but I would like to analyze this following angle.
There was a traveler , who was traveling in the middle of a Forest, he felt tired and thirsty and he wanted to take rest, and he had short nap under a tree, his thoughts started traveling thro his dreams , he wondered
Oh I am very thirst ,how beautiful it would be if I could get some water, suddenly water started pouring from the tree ,
After some time he felt like having food , delicious dishes arrived infront of him, then he felt like sleeping in a silk bed
Again a silk bed came, then came wine, fresh fruits, chill breeze.............. the list continued Suddenly the man came to his real senses and he felt , oh Iam all alone in this forest what will happen if a tiger eats me alive
and there he saw a tiger approaching him..........
Moral:
As you think , it will happen
My Analysis
The above man in the story is cautious....
He has satisfied Maslow's need hierarchy theory
Danger zone Self Esteem and Self Actualization
Friends, life is like that
when we need some thing very badly we will get it , but as the days pass by we fail to realize the value of it , and our mind wanders for next higher thing , next,next,next,next......
as we continue growing we start accumulating things which we dont need and want , finally it becomes poison
Let us analyse why we need this
Let us think before every money we spend
Let us realize and be serious about every rupee we get
Let us give charity with pride , all the extra money we have
Less Luggage More Comfort ,Makes Life's Travel a pleasure Regards, K Jhaveri |
