OUR SUPPORT
******************
Once, great Shivaji engaged thousands of labourers to build a brobdingnagian citadel.He became very vainglorious to think that he was supporting so many men and women. He was puffed up with vainglory.
His Guru and mentor, Samarth Ramdas, came to know of Shivaji's pride through his spiritual power. He summoned Shivaji and asked him to break a big stone lying near his palace.
Shivaji enjoined a servant to do so. As soon as the stone was broken, a toad that was inside it popped out. Guruji asked," Who had supported and arranged victuals for this toad inside the stone?"
Shivaji understood. He felt ashamed. His vainglory deliquesced away from his mind.Wisdom dawned upon him.
*********************************************************
MORAL: Only God is our support. All things are God- given. We are puppets in the hands of the LORD !!
