Friends let me share with you another story recently I came across with:
There was a rich guy who was having large number of horses in his possession. He used to win the horse race every time. A young man was jeleous of him but was helpless to get a horse better than the rich man. Infact whenever there was a strong and better horse, it was implied to be in the ownership of the rich by any ways. And therefore at every annual event , the prize in race was very high and it further make the rich man richer. The young man thought of various options to win the race but could not win. Finallly he went to an old saint who used to live at the outskirt of that city. The saint told him that it is not the case of better horse rather it is lack of desire to win the race and preset mentality of losing. He told the young man that he would win the race if his horse is made to win. The young man could not understand what saint meant so he wantedv to know how to make the horse win? His horse was bit weak as compared to the rich man. The saint told him to come to him just before the race and he wd make him win the race.
The young man came to the saint just half an hour before the scheduled race. The saint gave him a medicine wrapped in a paper and said you just put inside the back of the horse when the race starts. As soon as the race started, the youngman did the same whatever was told. And then horse started running faster and faster. He ran so fast that the young was declared winner of the horse race and got huge money as a prize. Later he went to the saint and asked him what the medicine made of? The saint replied, it was not medicine, but only a chilli powder. So when you put the powder inside the back of the horse, the horse could not bear it and ran so fast that and won the race. The horse never looked to any of his sides and was totally focussed on running.
Saint told the man that if in life we get the fire from the down, we would run like the horse and win the race. Friends the fire means the "strong Desire" to achieve some thing. I believe that we should also have such a strong desire to achieve whatever we wish. What you say?
