A glass of water to restart

Once there was a man working as a clerk in a Bank and always had a busy day. He used to get angry upon seeing too many people asking too many questions. He met different kind of people everyday. He was always annoyed. As usual, once, on a busy day he was annoyed at the customers. He showed his annoyance to all the customers verbally. 

There was an old lady who submitted the form, the form was filled with a lot of mistakes and the clerk shouted at the lady. A man from the queue brought a glass of cool water from the cooler to the clerk and asked the clerk to drink it as he was talking to everyone. The clerk was surprised for a moment and he drank the water. The clerk was relaxed and his anger melted somehow. The day ended. 

The customer who bought the water for the clerk and the clerk himself went back to their respective homes. As soon as he reached his home, the clerk realised that things were different when he was calm. After sometime the clerk figured out the contact number of the gentleman who gave him water at work and gave him a call. The man answered the call and the clerk thanked him. The person at the other end was surprised to hear from the clerk. The man asked why was he being thanked? 

The clerk said when he reached his home his mother and wife were arguing. It was a

routine for his mother and wife to keep fighting. The clerk gave some water to drink to his wife and his mother. Both of them drank the water and calmed down and quickly the intensity of the situation settled. 

The clerk realised when anger is handled with love and care it settles things.

Everything can be fought back the best in the same kind, but not anger

Anger must be treated with love and kindness

He had a tough time at his work place. Everyday, the employee on his way to and from his office, watched the blind beggar. One day he saw the begger with a note saying 'I am Blind'. The employee walked up to the begger and made a small change in the note and carried on with his day.  At the end of the day, on his way back from office the employee  was curious to know if his small change in the note made any difference to the beggar. As he neared the place, the begger recognized the employee with his foot steps and said  " I understand you are the one who cam...

World moves on without you: There lived a teacher in a small village. He had a wife, a son who was doing his higher studies and daughter who was ready to get married. He was living a contented life when a thought came to his mind that totally disturbed his peaceful existence.  He suddenly thought that he was the reason the whole family was happy. He felt that things wouldn’t be the same for them in his absence. This thought bred in him and over a few days turned into an ego in himself. One day when he was introspecting himself as a teacher he realized that he had become egoistic but it was already late as the ego had got the better of him already. At around the same time, a yogi arrived in the village and coincidentally he was speaking about controlling ones egos and vices. The yogi said that the world remains the same although many have come and left before this and continue to do so. After the talk, the teacher approached the yogi and confesses to him that hes already suffering w...

Ritual Once a Sadhu finished meditation and got up to find a wounded kitten. As he was a very kind man, he took the kitten to his ashram and started taking care of it. The kitten eventually recovered and grew to be a pet to Sadhu. The kitten was a very naughty one, it always play around the sadhu.  The Sadhu began to get distracted from his meditation. So one day, the Sadhu asked one of his followers to tie the kitten to the tree in front of the ashram. The disciple did so without a question. In some time it became a practice that whenever the sadhu started to meditate, the kitten will be tied to the tree. After some time, the Sadhu passed away.

Every sadhu followed the ritual of tying the kitten to the tree when they meditated. After sometime the cat died.. The whole ashram was under chaos, thinking and brought a new cat to the ashram to ...
