We put so much emphasis on going to our respective places of worship and outwardly showing our devotion, that very often most people forget about the actual teachings of God (no matter what religion they belong to.) :-

THANKS FOR SHARING.....

THE LINE I LIKE MOST....

"GO NOT TO THE TEMPLE TO ASK FOR FORGIVENESS...FIRST FORGIVE FROM UR HEART THOSE WHO HAVE SINNED AGAINST YOU"

VANDANA DI...IS THAT EASY TO FORGIVE SOMEONE FOR THEIR SIN...WHICH WOUNDED YOU COMPLETELY..??

If you don't mind Vandana, I'd like to share my views on ..

 

"VANDANA DI...IS THAT EASY TO FORGIVE SOMEONE FOR THEIR SIN...WHICH WOUNDED YOU COMPLETELY..??"

 

It's not. It certainly is not, Dear Aryan. But what will you do with the unforgiving mind-set?

1. Repeat the same sin and teach that person a lesson.

2. Go one step further and destroy the existence of the person.

3. Take legal action.

4. If he escapes your wrath for some reason like money, power etc., rue for the rest of your life.

Now please share with us here, honestly, will anyone of the abovementioned course of actions satisfy your quest for vengeance? May be action no. 1 or 2 or.. or each one combined, I suppose.

And what will you get for that? Please answer.

How about this option : Make yourself so better - materially, emotionally, socially and the like -  that the sinner gets  a chance to lament over his sin!!!

And even if nothing such melodramatic ever happens, will you not already be in a position to think the sin as a triffle one in your heightened state of existence????

Please do share your thought. I am all ears to listen.

Best of luck.

GREAT SHARING VANDANA JI

THANKS FOR SUCH A NICE POEM

KEEP SHARING

Thank you Souravda for the wonderful reply on Aryan's question and doubt. I will too like to add something

My dear brother Aryan. i know its not  very easy, but we can do it because its forgiving is a true nature of the self/ GOD. Think of how many mistakes you do or you hurt ur parents specially MOM unknowlingly do they not forgive you, if they would have not forgiven us how would be our life today.

By not forgiging what are you doing?  By forgiving you are not doing favour on that person but on yourself,. Infact by not forgiving you are hurting yourself every time you remember that incident or wound, i.e, each and every moment of your life. That person hurted you once, so now what you are doing is a big sin than that person has actually done.

"Make yourself so better - materially, emotionally, socially and the like -  that the sinner gets  a chance to lament over his sin!!!"

I agree 100% to this Sourav Da....

But If I 4give the person by whom I m suffering today....then the Fire in my soul to beat that person,the agony to compete...wil be no where....

I now I'm still surviving for the jubilation.......for that Judgment day........

 

Thank you Aryan....GOD BLESS YOU

Thanx Vandana Di...for ur suggestive comments....I appreciate of all...ur slendid words...

But Kya karu...the pain is unforgettable...chah ke bhi I can't.......

Aryan...i can understand the pain...but  if you try to forgive, the pain has to go.

If you cant forgive personally, i have a suggestion if you can try it may help you a lot. Sit in meditation and try to speak to that person and say that you forgive him....You will see the miracle.

Thank you...Di...I will admire...the treasure of meditation...

Thanx again....for ur...support...

 

                    OUR MOM AND DAD

Who made for us the possibility
That we, a part of all humanity,
Could walk this earth? Who gave us birth?
OUR MOM AND DAD!

Who bathed and clothed and fed us, quenched our thirst?
Who cared for us in sickness and who nursed
Us back to health? Who gave us wealth?
OUR MOM AND DAD!

Who was it helped us through those growing years?
Who stilled our fears and brushed away our tears
And cheered us on? Who said, "Well done"?
OUR MOM AND DAD!

Who saw us marry, have our families?
Who took their grandchildren upon their knees
Their love to show? Who helped them grow?
OUR MOM AND DAD!

And whom do we re-echo in life's song?
Whose symphony of love is carried on?
Whose glad refrain our souls sustain?
OUR MOM AND DAD!

Thanks to all for sharing such inspirational & motivational thoughts.

Thankyou Vandana, Tagoreji showed us the right path to temple..., Its not far away, God is within us, then how come temple will be far to us.. Be kind, pure hearted, always with good thoughts, respect elders, love youngones, help others, be honest, brave to fight with enemies inside you, strong to walk on the thorns, learn to digest the pain, forgive others, feed the hunger.., expect little, teach a good thing to others, learn a good thing from others... .. Its true.. God is in every good job you do, he will be smiling, blessing you...
