Friends let me share you a story ..
A businessman got lucky and won a million dollar lottery ..
He was overjoyed and started living luxurious life .. He was a good Samaritan and he would help any needy person as well. He did lot of donations .. His friends would also ask for help and he would generously give them as well ..
Since he was financially illiterate he soon became penniless .. He then went to all his friends to ask his money back .. But no one was ready to give his money back .. He became very poor and one day got so frustrated that he started cursing God ... That very night God came in his dreams .. Following is the conversation
God : How are you son
He: Not good .. Don't you know I slept hungry last night ..
God : Ya I know .. But lot many people sleep hungry everyday
He: But why me .. I have helped so many people in my life .. And now no one is helping me out .. Why
God smiled ..
He: Why are you smiling ..
God: Actually I had come to take back the money which I gave you ..
He: Which money
God : The lottery you had won was sent by me to you
He: But I don't have any money left
God : Is that my problem .. I want my money back
He: But I don't have it
God : So you are also behaving like your friends .. You are also refusing to give my money back ..
He : But I don't have it now
God : So you squandered it .. Its not my fault
He : I did not squander all .. I gave it to poor and needy ... I gave it to friends who wanted help .. Did I do anything wrong .. How can you blame me for helping others ...
God: You have squandered my money .. I gave you money to create something and not to fulfill your egotistical desires ...
He: How can helping be egotistical
God: You gave money to poor just to boost your ego that you are the giver .. It made you feel proud ... You gave it to your friends so that they can be grateful to you and be obliged to you all their life .. You did everything from your ego point of view ... If you had given them from love point of view you would not have asked your money back from them ... You would have asked more money from me to serve the people ..
He: hmmmmm
God : You did 3 big mistakes which everyone does ..
He: What are those
God : 1 You considered the money you have as yours .. It was never yours .. It was universal money which flowed through you
2 . You squandered it to satisfy it for your egoistic needs ... You should have reinvested that money and helped the needy with the income .. That would have ensured longitivity
3. Even when you became penniless you forgot that the universal giver is me and not your friends ... Because your friends have also squandered the money like you did ...
He: I got your point God .. Please forgive me ...
Friends whether it is money or love we all make the same mistake ..
We give love so that one day we can take it back from them .. We forget that universal love is above and not below ...
Seek universal love ... Invest that love in ourselves ... And when we start overflowing with love give that love to everyone ... Unconditionally ... Feel the bliss
