Dear Sir,

The secret of getting ahead is getting started

Once there was a big corporate company in Delhi by NCR. There was a dhaba across the road, run by a man named Raju. The dhaba served very tasty food. There was a manager in a nearby corporate company whose name was Krishnan. Krishnan decided to have his lunch from the dhaba. He wanted to have the signature dish served in the dhaba. Krishna and Raju knew each other for a very long time. Krishnan used to work for another company in the past still he paid random visits to Raju's dhaba since then, so they knew each other well. 

While Krishnan was having his meal, he said to Raju that he is doing quite good with his business and Krishnan congratulated Raju for his hardwork and the way he manages the things. Krishnan was really impressed with the progress Raju made in his business. Finally, Krishnan added that Raju is wasting his management skills, if Raju could have invested his efforts in a company Raju can be a manager like him. Krishnan's intentions were so good. Raju replied, you may be right but I must say when you started your salary was 10000 rupees. If I look back I started with food on wheels and barely made 1000 rupees per month, I had no capital and now I have a restaurant of my own. I am sure in these 10 years your journey would have been really well and you will be earning in lakhs I agree to it. You work for someone else and earn it and on the other hand I work for myself and earn 3 lakhs per month. I do everything for myself and I am earning much better considering where I started. Krishnan after listening to Raju he started to rethink. Raju continued and said the effort I invested here is for my children's future. I don't want my kids to grow up and start where I began. I want them to have a better start when they think of a career. In the future my kids will take over the business as restaurant owners,  while your kids have to start from where you have started. Your company's owners' will have kids and they will take over and become your boss. They will start working as employees and my kids, at the same time they are owners. Now think, who is wasting their time in their life.

We should foresee the future and invest our time and effort

Kutty story #59

   God is within us through our journey of life. The story is about a baby boy who was about to be born into this world. He pleads to God not to send him to earth as it’s very chaotic and deceitful. God convinced him with his soft spoken voice and soft strokes, all about life and death. He tells him its very important for him to be born on earth for a reason. The baby boy finally gives in but asked for a promise from God in return. He asked that God be with him always as he wouldn’t want to go otherwise. So God agrees with a smile. The baby boy asked God “how will I know you are with me when we are on earth as I will not see you”. God replied with a smile “whenever you close your eyes and see you will see two footprints, one will be mine and one will be yours”. So the baby boy was born and life went on as any other baby. He grew into a kid and then into a young man, got settled in life and got really busy with life and its tensions. He had forgotten all about the discussion he had with

Mother : Love This is the story of a woman who is a mother to three men. As the mother aged she equally divided all her wealth among her 3 children and she also announced that she will be staying with each of her sons for 3 months. All the three brothers were really excited to welcome their mother home and take care of her. They were happy to see her. Eventually the excitement among the brothers and their family seemed to be lost somewhere. The children were not that happy to see their mother. The mother began to feel the pain of this.  One day she had a friend visit her. The mother broke down into tears and the friend embraced her and gave her a suggestion.  The mother returned to one of her sons with a jewellery box.

The bond Sudhama and Lord Srikrishna were great friends. Both of them were good friends since their days at Sandeepani Saints Ashram as disciples. The students were supposed to follow the instructions by the Saint also they were all supposed to help the master's wife by collecting wood for household purposes. The boys were in charge for collecting flowers for Pooja and wood for cooking.  One day it was ekadashi (the day for fasting) the wife of the master had kept two hands full of dry fruits for Sudhama and Lord Srikrishna as they had to go to the forest. Since it was the day of fasting the students were not allowed to go to the street seeking food from the villagers. However another sage walked into Sandeepani's ashram and asked for food. Sandeepani's wife politely replied they have not cooked anything as it is ekadashi and there is no food in her kitchen to spare for the sage. The sage meditated for a moment and with his inner eye he could see the two hand full of dry fr
