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 fruits kept in the kitchen and he became angry. The sage cursed that whoever is going to eat it will struggle and suffer. Sudhama was witnessing everything from a tree nearby.

 After sometime Lord Krishna and Sudhama were given the dry fruits and they were sent to the forest for firewood. Sudhama said he will keep the dry fruits for Krishna as well and he will share them once they are at their destination. Krishna agreed. Both the boys reached the forest and Krishna asked for his share of dry fruits. Sudhama didn't want any suffering in his friend's life. Sudhama didn't give Krishna his share instead, he ran away with the entire dryfruits and climbed up a tree while he ate his share he managed to spill Krishna's share of dry fruits on the ground. Krishna asked Sudhama what he did! Sudhama excused himself that he was tired and he was hungry; he was trying to pull out a prank.

The curse of the sage left Sudama in poverty and under great suffering and Krishna the king of Dwaraka was never intimated about anything even with a word by Sudhama. Finally one day Sudhama visits Krishna Sudhama didn't complain to his friend about anything but Krishna could understand his friend and read his suffering. Sudhama left his family in a wrecked hut but he returned to a palace. Lord Krishna blessed him with everything he could dream of.


God's blessing will shower upon us; we need not to ask or demand for it 

We just have to be good with deeds.

The life each wished for Once there lived two farmers in a village. The farmers were friends and they worked really hard. They, more or less had the same share of land in the village and eventually with time, both of them died in the same period.  After their death both the farmers were in their after life. God asked both the farmers the same question. The first farmer was asked: how was his life and how could have God made it better for him. The farmer was so annoyed and disgraced with all the hardship he had in his life. The farmer said he had no luxury, he and his family barely had anything to enjoy. They struggled to manage each day. God kept quiet and asked the farmer what he wanted to become in his next life. The farmer wished to be someone who is unquestioned and who people gave money to. God blessed him and granted his desire.  God approached the other farmer with the same question. The farmer said he was really glad with the life God had given him. The farmer thanked ...

Strong roots Sangeetha and her husband were staying in a housing colony. Next doors to them lived an old man. Everyone addressed him as grandpa. One day a man who sold plants was in the colony. Sangeetha and the grandpa bought the same plant and planted it in their yard. Sangeetha had her education in agriculture and knew everything about the plant. Sangeetha watered the plant and used the right fertilizers and pesticides for her plant and she was so prompt with her schedule. After days both the plants were easily distinguishable. Sangeetha's plant was so green and flourished beautifully. Grandpa's plant was barely anything.  One evening, thunder and storm rampaged the area, everyone and everything was affected. The whole night heavy wind blew. The next morning grandpa and Sangeetha came out to check their plants. Sangeetha's plant was totally damaged, even the last strand of root was pulled out of the soil by the wind. Grandpa's plant on the other hand was just bent, n...
