ACHIEVING INNER PEACE


DEALING WITH INSULT


 How to handle insult and maintain compassion.
                                            
One day an old man was walking through a village. A very angry and rude    young man came up and began insulting him. "You have no right teaching others," he shouted. "You are as stupid as everyone else.  You are nothing but a fake."                                   
                                                        
The old man was not upset by these insults. Instead he asked the young man                                    
"Tell me, if you buy a gift for someone, and that person does not take it, to whom does the gift belong?"                     
                                                        
The man was surprised to be asked such a strange question and                         answered, "It would belong to me, because I bought the gift."  

                                               










The old man smiled and said, "That is correct. And it is exactly the same with your anger. If you become angry with me and I do not get insulted, then the anger falls back on you. You are then the only one who becomes unhappy, not me. All you have done is hurt yourself."                                             
                                                        
"If you want to stop hurting yourself, you must get rid of your anger and become loving instead. When you hate others, you yourself become unhappy. But when you love others, everyone is happy." 
                                                        
The young man listened closely to these wise words of the old man. "You are right, o Enlightened One, "he said. "Please teach me the path of love. I wish to become your follower."                 






















The old man answered kindly, "Of course. I teach anyone who truly wants to learn. Come with me."                               
                                                        
Beautiful Quotes 
                                      
If you are right then there is no need to get angry, And if you are wrong then you do not have any right to get angry.                                             
                                                        
Patience with family is love, Patience with others is respect,                       
Patience with self is confidence and Patience with GOD is faith.                            
 
Never Think Hard about PAST, It brings Tears...                       
              
Do no Think more about FUTURE, It brings Fears...                                    
 
Live this Moment with a Smile, It brings Cheers!!!!                                  
                                                        
Every test in our life makes us bitter or better,
Every problem comes to make us or break us,
Choice is ours whether we become victim or victorious!!!    



































Search a beautiful heart not a beautiful face.         
Beautiful things are not always good but good things are always beautiful.                  

Remember me like pressed flower in your Notebook.      
It may not be having any fragrance but will remind you of my existence forever in your life.                                                  
                                                        
Do you know, why God created gaps between fingers?     
So that someone who is special to you, comes and fills those gaps by holding our hands forever.
