How to be Admired and Loved

A small girl was brought to my office unexpectedly. I had not met her before and she did not stay long with me. But here mother told me afterwards that the child had repeatedly said how much she wanted to come and see me again.

At first I was puzzled that the child should have gained such a good impression about me. In the middle of a hard day’s work when I could not spare much time with her.

But then I recalled how, when she arrived at my office. I had promptly tried to forget my work and to think of what might interest her. I had asked her about her school, her Girl Guides, her friends and her holidays. The child liked her visit because I had taken sincere interest in her.

Nor long ago on another occasion a woman came to my house with a fine bouquet of flowers n expressing my gratitude. I could not stop from asking her what made her to spend a big amount for the bouquet. “Because you have taken an interest in me” was here immediate reply

You could no doubt find similar illustrations from your own life. If you stop to find out the reason, in each case you would probably find that it was because you had taken a sincere interest in the well-being of the concerned person.

Think of the last occasion when you spent an afternoon or evening with same of your friends. Think of the person you most admired and to whom your affection gave a great deal of warmth of lovingness Certainly it was to the person who, by actions and words showed an interest in you . He was the person who tired to help you where you most needed help of that time. He was the person who talked to you about the things that interested you most.

If you take interest in others and in what is of the greatest importance to them. Then you will be held in high esteem and wanted by others. This requires tact. One should avoid giving the impression of being merely inquisitive. There is only one way it Is not a matter of technique but a genuine desire for the good of others and of a sincere wish to discover your part in contributing to their good.

Besides cultivating a desire for their happiness we must recognise that everyone has a problem of some kind. People’s problems are similar to wounds. There are times when it is good to expose them, bathe them and soothe them with ointment. But there are times when it is best to leave them alone and divert the person’s attention to others issues.

By taking an interest in a person you satisfy the hunger for love and the huger for a feeling of personal worth. To satisfy these two human hungers, even in a small measure, is to make a rich contribution to  a person’s life in return you will receive the warmest of response.

Quote from the True charm and power of Vedanta

Life is not a bed of Roses, So what?

Life is not a bed of roses , as we all know Calamities , adversities, death, disease and suffering visit everybody those who do not have the inner strength of endurance born of the practice of spiritual discipline, cannot easily stand such impacts  .Sometimes people are driven out of their minds in such situations.

Bhishma Says in Mahabharatha.

When one’s wealth is lost, or one’s wife or son or father is dead, one certainly says to oneself, alas, it is great sorrow! But then one should with the help of meditation by to kill that grief yet , is the practise of meditation such an easy affair that when someone dies at home, you just rise to super consciousness and forget all  about it? It requires a life long practice of mediation for it to be found helpful in times of calamity. Religion helps us to remain, as the Gita says, unperturbed in misery, and unelated in happiness.

IF HE EXIST

I drive joy There was a doctor in Benaras who spent 7 minutes in the morning and evening for mediation on God. Knowing this, his colleagues and friends laughed at him. One day they argued that he was wasting seven precious minutes on something, which he had been misled into believing. The doctor replied, “Well, if God does not exist, I agree that I am wasting seven minutes a day. But, if He exists? I am afraid you are wasting your entire lifetime. I prefer to waste seven minutes rather than a lifetime. Why should you grudge me the 7minutes joy that I derive 4m.
