When everything seems bad, read this story.
There is a story of a businessman who suffered a huge loss in business. So he rushed to a saint. He went and told Mahatma ji that Mahatma ji, I have suffered a huge loss in my business. And he told Mahatma ji that I have suffered a huge loss and what should I do, I am very troubled. He was telling his sorrows to Mahatma ji and he was listening quietly. After listening to everything, Mahatma ji took a letter and gave it to the businessman. This letter is specially for you. And he said that go home and read it quietly, comfortably and peacefully. It contains the answers to all your questions. So the businessman came to his house with the letter, rushed to his room and started reading the letter. It was written in it “My dear, when you wake up in the morning, I was standing with you.
And I thought that you would remember me and meditate on me, but you get busy in your work. When you sit down to drink tea, I think you will remember me then. That is when you are thinking about the country and the world. You are lost in thoughts. After that you go to take a bath. I think that after taking a bath, when you come back you will meditate a little. After that you get busy in thinking what clothes to wear today. Which clothes will look good, you are left thinking about this time. Then I think that maybe now you will find time, but after that you sit down for breakfast and eat breakfast. Then I think that you will ask me to have breakfast too, but you don't do that. You talk to your family members, talk about this, that, talk about the whole world, after that you leave home for office. After that you catch a bus and it takes you 15 minutes to go by bus. Then I think that you will remember me in those 15 minutes that you take on the way. Because even then I am with you.
But even then you don't pay attention to me. You start playing games on your mobile and waste those 15 minutes like this and then reach your office. I know you are busy in the office, but you still manage to spare 15 minutes. But even then you remain lost in your own thoughts and don't think about me. When you leave the office in the evening, I think you will miss me in the evening. Because I am with you even at that time. But even then you don't pay attention to me. When you come home, I think you will spare 2-5 minutes, only then you are busy.
After that you eat food, spend time with your family, then you switch on the TV. And while watching TV you start feeling sleepy. You come to your room, wish good night to your wife and children and go to sleep. After that, even in the 2 minutes before you don't fall asleep, you don't pay attention to me, you don't ask about my well-being. I keep waiting like this. I love you very much. And I keep waiting that someday you will miss me. You remember me when you have a loss, a problem, then you come running to me, hey, now go and see God. Even then you come and tell me all the important things. But your attention is not towards me, your attention is that my work should be done. Once my work is done, the matter is over. We wish that the work should be completed, you do not have any desire to meet me. Then I think that he will remember me, you will come to me, but even then he does not come to me. I just keep waiting. It was written below, your beloved “Bhagwan, Ishwar” whoever you believe in.
While reading this letter, tears came to his eyes. He ran to Mahatma ji and said, Mahatma ji, you have opened my eyes. You have told me whether I am making a mistake. I remember God only at the time of work. If I remember him all the time, then maybe things will work out. Mahatma ji said, he is with you all the time, he is with you every moment. Start taking out some time for him too. Worries will reduce, happiness will increase in life. Start calming your mind.
Very short story which explains the essence of life that we should never forget God because he is with us all the time.
