A gambler suddenly awoke and realised that he was no longer on earth but in heaven. During his time on earth, he had wished to gamble to his heart's content when he would be in heaven. Here he would be with the most beautiful damsels around, sumptupus foods and in the most beautiful place he had ever seen. Without wasting time, he tried his hand on the betting table and his luck does not leave him as he started winning.He went on winning day after day, week after week, month after month and even year after year.
Gradually he started to get annoyed and restless with the routine. Nothing changed:There were the same beautiful women, sumptuous foods, beautiful place, pleasant perfume and other heavenly pleasures.One day he approached the one in charge of heaven and told him that he was extremely restless and bored.He asked to be moved to some other place."But there is no other place for you as this is what you have sought during your whole life.In fact this is the other place", came the reply.
Now just imagine a life without problems and death! If that happened people would be bored to death or become mad. Fortunately, the mind is here to seek for trouble all the time and also fortunately there is death. What are human beings aiming at by developing more advanced technology in all fields of science and arts? No illness, no famine, mechanisation and computerisation of almost all systems of work. Then what will people do? The mind will always find some occupation and create sufferings so that it can assert itself. It is a psychological fact that deep within, people do not want to get liberated from their suffering, This is why, consciously or unconsciously, they are always creating new circumstances in which they are caught.
Now if you try to be calm and silent for a few hours, watching the inner mechanism so that you can know what inner silence is? Are all your cause and sufferings is the absence of inner silence? Is the cause within or without? Are you only a witness to the world? Are your eyes really seeing all that you should? Are you finding scapegoats or can't face yourself? So make move an invite your inner silence!!!!!... ~~ NITIN ~~
