WATCH YOUR HEART “YAD BHAVAM TAT BHAVATI” AS ARE YOUR FEELINGS SO IS THE WORLD AROUND YOU
75 YEARS THIS IS THE STORY OF TWO ROYAL NEIGHBOURING STATES. STATE ‘SHORT’ WHERE KING AFTER KING DIED AT A YOUNG AGE. ON THE CONTRARY KING OF STATE ‘LONG’ LIVED A LONG HAPPY AND FULFILLING LIFE. THE RESPECTIVE KINGS OF STATE ‘SHORT’ WERE PUZZLED BY THIS ENIGMATIC PHENOMENA.FINALLY KING OF STATE ‘SHORT’ SENT HIS MOST TRUSTED MESSANGER MIR TO SECRETIVELY GO TO STATE ‘LONG’ TO MEET ITS PEOPLE AND FATHOM OUT THE SECRETS OF LONGIVITY OF THE KING. AVERAGE AGE 40 YEARS AVERAGE AGE
THE MESSANGER TURNED SPY ENTERED THE STATE ‘LONG’ TERRITORY AND DRESSED HIMSELF AS A FARMER.HE WENT FROM PLACE TO PLACE ASKING PEOPLE ABOUT THE SECRET CAUSE OF THEIR KING’S LONG LIFE. SOON THE SECURITY MEN SPOTTED HIM SPYING .THEY CONFRONTED HIM AND ASKED HIM ABOUT HIS IDENTITY.
THE SECURITY PERSONNEL BROUGHT MIR IN THE ROYAL COURT OF KING.MIR REVEALED HIS IDENTITY AND MISSION OF HIS VISIT BEFORE THE KING .HE PLEADED INNOCENT. MIR ASKED THE KING DIRECTLY ABOUT THE SECRET OF HIS LONGIVITY. THE KING STATED THAT HE WILL ONE DAY REVEAL THE SECRET BUT FIRST HE(MIR) HAD TO UNDERGO PUNISHMENT FOR ILLEGAL ACT OF SPYING IN HIS STATE. THE LENGTH OF PUNISHMENT WAS A PERIOD OF LIFE OF A YOUNG TREE I.E TILL A YOUNG TREE IN FRONT OF THE PRISON CELL DRIES UP DEAD COMPLETELY.
MIR WAS LODGED IN THE PRISION CELL IN CITY. FACING THE CELL WAS A YOUNG TREE LADEN WITH FRUITS.THE CONDITION FOR HIS RELEASE WAS DRYING UP OF THE TREE.AS THE TREE WAS GREEN AND YOUNG MIR THOUGHT HE WILL HAVE TO REMAIN IMPRISONED FOR FEW DECADES . SURELY HE WILL TURN OLD BEFORE BEING SET FREE TO LEARN THE SECRET FROM THE KING OF THE STATE .
MIR BEGAN TO CURSE THE TREE FOR HIS ILL FORTUNE AND IMPRISONMENT. THROUGH OUT THE DAY MIR WATCHED THE GREEN TREE AND STARTED HARBOURING ILL FEELINGS FOR EARLY DOWN FALL OF THE TREE. HE WOULD GET UP EARLY IN MORNING STARE AT THE TREE AND VISUALISE THE TREE AGEING AWAY FASTLY. WITHIN A FEW WEEKS THE ILL FEELINGS OF THE MESSANGER STARTED TAKING TOLL OF THE TREE. SOON THE LEAVES BEGAN TO FALL OFF.THE BRANCHES STARTED DROOPING AND DROPPING. WITHIN A SPACE OF TWO MONTHS TIME THE TREE WAS VIRTUALLY HALF DRIED UP.
IN THE THIRD MONTH THE LEAVES SHED VERY FAST AND MOST OF THE BRANCHES HAD DRIED. THE CURSING AND PROJECTION OF ILL FEELINGS FOR EARLY DEMISE OF TREE INCREASED IN INTENSITY. BY THE END OF THIRD MONTH THE TREE HAD DRIED UP AND THE STUMP STARTED SHAKING WITH BLOWING WIND. IN A FEW DAYS THE TREE CAME OFF AND FELL ON THE GROUND COMPLETELY DRIED AND DEAD .
AS PROMISED THE MESSANGER WAS RELEASED AND BROUGHT BEFORE THE KING. MIR ENTHUSIASTICALLY ASKED THE KING TO DISCLOSE THE GUARDED SECRET OF LONG LIFE.THE KING SMILED AND SAID “LOOK MY DEAR GUEST, DUE TO ILL FEELINGS AND CURSING BY ONE PERSON A TREE WITH A LIFE OF 90 YEARS CAN DIE IN THREE MONTHS .IMAGINE WHAT DESTRUCTION WILL BE WROUGHT IF THE ENTIRE PEOPLE OF THE STATE CURSE THE KING COLLECTIVELY. IN YOUR STATE KINGS HAD BEEN INHUMANE, SELFISH AND INSENSITIVE ABOUT THEIR PEOPLE’ S NEEDS.THE AGGREIVED PEOPLE CURSED AND KING DIED EARLY . WHEREAS IN MY STATE KINGS ARE LOVING,CARING AND SENSITIVE TOWARDS PEOPLE’S NEEDS.THEY SHARE THEIR ABUNDANCE FOR WELFARE OF PEOPLE . RESULTANTLY THEY PROSPER WITH GOOD WISHES AND BONHOMIE FEELINGS OF PEOPLE. THEREFORE IN THE ULTIMATE ANALYSIS , THE FEELINGS OF PEOPLE CAN MAKE OR BREAK A STATE.”
THERE HAS TO BE RIGHTEOUSNESS IN OUR HEART SO ONLY PURE POSITIVE FEELING WOULD OUTPOUR. OUR HEART IS THE CENTRE OF OUR FEELINGS WHICH REFLECT AS REALITIES IN THE WORLD OF ACTION. AS BHAGWAN SRI SATHYA SAI BABA SAYS “WE SHOULD REALISE THAT MAN HAS NOT ONLY A MIND WHICH CONCEIVES THOUGHTS, BUT ALSO A HEART(FEELING CENTRE) WHICH CAN PUT THEM INTO PRACTICE.” REMEMBER “YAD BHAVAM TAT BHAVATI” ALWAYS WATCH YOUR HEART(FEELINGS) ALWAYS HAVE RIGHTEOUSNESS IN YOUR HEART
