hai all...yesterday we were there in a home for orphans and abandoned children...
look at the children...almost like beggers...old clothes with wrinkles, so thin, black...so dirty looking...no perfume smell on them...one burnt face due to child abuse also can be seen...but all of us grown ups, highly educated, those who take bribes, all those who are greedy, mint public money, all those who call themselves a mahans, gurus and swamijis 'preaching' to others as to how to live and what is life, living in Air-conditioned ashrams, with 'all comforts'...silk holy dresses, fly in private aeroplanes, and live with hundreds and thousands of crores under their ass, and of course our elite convent and international school children also have to learn a lot from these hungry stomachs...
1. there was no watering face or mouth looking at the eatables (but the smell watered my mouth)
2. they did not fight or rush for the snacks
3. they all formed a line and came with peace on face
4. sang a nice song of love (whether it is jesus or christianity is immaterial...it had only love!!)
5. no one tried to grab the snacks of others
6. when one finished the stuff, she did not look at the other person eating
the ultimate thing is when we gave more snacks and soft drinks they refused saying 'I have already taken!'...even the tiny tot said the same thing. If i were in their place, i would have certainly taken one more plate.
The girls had gone to different schools, so, we waited and they came in batches. When we offered to these new comers the others who had taken were not there at all.
When i spoke to them i realized that they are living gods.
They may not have good dress, may not have even a rupee with them but they have abundance of peace and the true values of life to teach others.
SPIRITUALITY IS NOT ABOUT PREACHING. IT IS ABOUT 'LIVING'.
What caste they belong to, what language they speak, what religion these kids follow is immaterial, but they are true human beings.
Poverty, lack of love from parents have taught them what life is...how one should live...the meaning of being a human being!
I think, it is not bad or a loss, if our children have to learn these lessons, by our sudden death and being on road.
Some more kids had to come. We could not wait. But we confidently handed over the snacks for them to these children to give to their friends when they come. I would not have confidently handed over to our children of riches. We know what our kids will do.
Let us learn life lessons and spirituality from living gods and not from those who just preach. Education or enlightenment is not required to teach others.
Gods don't live in rich ashrams and temples. Gods live in the hearts of true human beings and in their forms.
We need to ask ourselves if we are real human beings and anywhere near these kids.
