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. 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 with ego.

The yogi advised him to go away from the village for about 2 years without telling anybody about his whereabouts. The teacher did the same. He just went home, took some money and left without saying a word. When the entire village was searching for the teacher, the yogi told them that a tiger has killed a villager and he visualizes the dead to be a teacher. Everybody felt upset, the family broke down and were consoled by the other villagers. 

Life goes on…the son finished his studies and got into a government job, the daughter got married to a gentleman with the help of all villagers. The family continued to live normally. The teacher now returned after 2 years to find the house full of happiness. 

This is when he realized it the hard way that life still will go on no matter what.  And that ended his ego.

He apologized to his family and told them all the truth.

Remember, Luck is important in life, so also hardwork. For success you must have good karma which are the true blessings which we get only with good actions.

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 ...

Proud to be an Indian Once two gentlemen were traveling by train. One was Paras, a project head in IT. Paras was not quite happy with the train travel. The other person next to him was a well- built gentleman. Paras was keenly observed by his co-passenger. He was killing time by skimming through some contents on his laptop. The other gentleman enquired if Paras was an IT professional, to which he accepted. The other person praised Paras for being an IT professional for being part of great revenue generation for the country. Paras felt proud about his profession but still remained guarded. The other gentleman asked some  more questions about Paras' profession. Paras told him that he started as a low level associate and he used to do complex coding now, he has been promoted and now he has to get the work done. The other gentleman commented  “now things would be more easy for you.”  Paras said  “it is not like that. Meeting the deadlines, getting the work done withi...
