What
a great fallacy of the world is, that which we don’t want to have is the very
touch stone of life. No one can be famous in the world if he has not faced the
trouble. Sita, Savitri, Ram, Krishna, Gandhi, Jawahar all have faced
unimaginable grieves in their life. One cannot make success in life unless he
has not faced troubles.
Everyone knows the great sage (Devarshi) Narad. In one of his previous
births, he was the son of a widow maid servant. The child (Narad) used to go
with her mother where she went. Once, so many sages visited the place. His
mother was deputed to serve the sages. The child was also with the sages all
the time. He enjoyed the company too much. After sometime, the sages started to
depart. The child became very sad and requested the saints to take him with
them. The sages refused and suggested him to stay with his mother till she is
alive. Unwillingly, he accepted the proposal. After some time, a great trouble
came to the child. Her mother died due to snake biting. The child became an
orphan. The trouble of the orphan child is beyond imagination. The sages came to
the same spot in the return journey and took the child with them. This very
child became the great sage ‘Narad’.
The great sage Bhagvaan Ramana Maharshi left home at the age of mere 16
in search of truth. Till so many years he remained in trance. He spent a good
time without food. Insects bit him in the dark ‘Paataal Lingam, in the deep
well’ and the mark of wound was vivid till his last journey. But, he is mater
of masters due to these troubles.
We all are acquainted with the troubles of Ram, Krishna, Buddha, Sita,
Savitree, Draupadi, Gandhi, Naharoo, Subhas, Bhagat Singh, Azad, Sukdeo,
Rajguru. They all could lead their lives in ease. But, they adopted trouble
themselves to help the society and to remove the trouble of the people. Ram was
a prince and later he was to become the king of Ayodhya. He could enjoy his life
lavishly like other prices and kings of the history. But, in that case, we
would have forgotten his name also like other princess and kings. Even ordinary
person like us cannot lead such a tough life. Living in dense forest among dangerous
fierce animals and giants without any shelter in rains, cold and scorching sun
is not an easy task. Can anybody imagine the trouble of Krishna? From the very
womb, problems surrounded him. Troubles were mountain like but, all became
flower like before my Lord Krishna. That’s why, he is called full incarnation
of Almighty. Lord Buddha was also a prince. But, he left the princely enjoyment
and adopted the toughest trouble in search of truth.
