Punar Musako Bhava

Friends
I wish to write blog every day but practically it is becoming weekly affair. There is no reason except the carelessness on my part. Just finished a wonderful book "The Difficulty of Being Good" by Gurcharan Das. Mr. Das is a renowned writer and I had chance to read his other book named "India Unbound". The book has been written after thorough research of various Indian epics and literature. The book is all about the subtleness of Dharma, the price of being good,. It analyses Guile, Remorse, Revenge, Despair, Rajdharma etc. Every human being comes across to various situations representing all these and takes the decision on the basis of his attitude, nature and circumstances. It develops into his/her character gradually. The books revolves around the Dharma and every thing is linked with this. I appreciate the book very much and feel grateful to the author for such a highly researched book. Now I have picked up another book "Screw It, Let's do it" by Richard Branson.
Life gives all kind of experience and every experience is an important lesson in life. In my case all experiences cost me dearly in terms of money and time. It shatters the confidence, faith, belief, vision, actions every thing. But there is always some superior power which guides me to come out of such tough times. We as human have always two options in every circumstance i.e. i) Act and be ready to face the result. It may be good or bad; and ii) Don't Act and hence no Result. In my case I prefer the first option but mostly the results are undesirable. God always give me power to come out of this and move towards another action. In childhood, I used to read a story in text books where a Saint was taking bath in a river and suddenly a mouse came under his foot. The mouse got crushed but with super powers, the saint made him alive. He also made the mouse an handsome boy. When the boy grew older, he started dating with the daughter of the saint. Finally they both decided to marry against the wish of the saint. The saint got very much annoyed and cursed the boy. Not only this he made the boy mouse again. In Sanskrit he said " Punar Musako Bhava" (be Mouse again). The poor young man became mouse again. God also plays the same game with we humans and he can make us mouse again. But the only consolation is that God loves us and always gives many chances to become a boy from mouse. One day the mouse becomes boy permanently, if he acts consistently and persistently. We are always put to test before becoming a young man from mouse by God. This consolation is the real power to try again and again.
