Hello friends today I will be telling you a story so it could be easy for you to understand the lesson. So let's get started.
There used to be two Buddhist monks, their guru advised them to stay away from women, their touch and their attraction.
One day they were traveling to some place and they saw a river in their way which they had to cross and then there was a beautiful girl standing right near the river and she said to the monks that she is afraid of crossing the river. So one of the monks (Senior) lifted her on his shoulder and started to cross the river. After crossing the river the monk put her down and continued with their journey. The other monk (Junior) was in stress after watching all this. He was thinking that the senior monk did not follow what the guru advised them to. After crossing some distance he could not control and said to the senior monk " You did this wrong" on which the senior monk asked "Why, what is wrong in this?".
The junior monk replied that guru asked us to stay away from women, do not touch them and you lifted her on your shoulder. On this the senior monk replied "I have put her down a long time ago and you are still carrying her on your mind"
Here is what the lesson of the story is...
Friends how many of you are there who keep on carrying such things on their minds unnecessarily. That monk carried her on his shoulder, helped her and moved on. That's it. But in this world there are so many people who are carrying so many unnecessary things on their minds and hearts like "He did this to me" "He did that to me" "He should have or have not done this" "He did wrong to me, he had not supported me when he could support me" and so on.
Even a vehicle's speed is reduced after overloading it with passengers and luggage. Friends we are still humans. If you are carrying such negative luggage on your mind how would you speed up and succeed? Ask this question to yourself.
Keep on throwing away such useless luggage. Every night when you come out of your work place just keep all the disputes of workplace there itself instead of carrying it along with you and if you and go a step further than this then just go to the person you had disputes with and just apologize him saying "Hey buddy/sir (whatever relation you share with that person) listen I am sorry for my mistake in whatever has happened today." Do not focus on his mistake and whether he should apologize to you or not. That is his outlook not yours. Just try to be clear from your side and you will start feeling good. Do not carry that luggage just unload it then and there and move forward. Do not let 24 hours to pass over any dispute. Once these 24 hours pass away there would be many knots in your relationship which would become very difficult to open. So try to solve any dispute within 24 hours to keep the relation normal. Open up your arms hug them and keep moving forward. The one who carries lots of burden on his shoulder can never become big or great or successful. One can become great only if he is away from such burden. If a cupboard is fully occupied you can't keep your stuff in it even if it is expensive than other stuff in the cupboard unless to make space for it by removing other unnecessary stuff. Similarly to become successful you need to remove unnecessary stuff from your mind to add some productive stuff to it.
Whoever is carrying such burden listen to me that it is just destroying your peace, human relations, spoiling your sleep and making you average. So I request you to leave this burden, empty yourself from stress so that you can take new things, learn and grow each day happily. I hope today's lesson helped you to remove your stress and disputes and have a happy relation with your people.
