Kindness will be repaid in full

Once there was a fruit seller. One day a man came by the shop. The man was in front of a fruit shop and the man was asked the price of the bananas, the shopkeeper swayed Rs.50 per dozen . The man asked for the price of the apples, the shopkeeper said Rs.200 per kilo. An old lady approached the same shop and asked for the price of the bananas, the shopkeeper said Rs.10 per dozen and when asked for the price of the apple he says Rs.50 per kilo. 

The old woman had some change in the woman's clutch. The woman purchased very minimal fruits. As soon as the old woman left, the other man asked the shopkeeper why the price was high for him and low for her. The shopkeeper said that the old lady was lonely and she lived all alone. I love to offer her fruits for free but she has a lot of self respect so she doesn't accept anything for free. The lady comes to my shop once in a while and whenever she comes here I get a lot of business. The shopkeeper said he firmly believed that when we give to the needy God will note and repay us. 

The shopkeeper also added the story of a shop in Europe, in Italy, where the customers can pay extra for a coffee wherein the shop will offer it for free to those who are in need. They call it the anonymous coffee. The shop's name is called : Cafe Sous Peso. The system of pending coffee is a unique way of kindness and sharing. It is such an invaluable thing.


Caring for the needy will speed up the blessings awaiting.

KUTTY STORY 1

STORY.1 It is not necessary that time favours you every time. Sometimes, it teaches a lesson : How to lead a disciplined life through difficulties Once there were two youngsters, one had an office job and the other, being blind, used to beg on the pavement of the office complex where the other worked.  The employee was never appreciated by anyone in his office and so he was demotivated. 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...

Kutty story #61

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.

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. The senior-most monk who now became the sadhu, continued to tie the kitten to the tree while he was meditating. The practice continued.
