You’re Happiness in Your Hands

If you face criticism without having committed any condemnable act, than why should you bother at all? If you do well and get praises, pas them no to Him, Who make you do good. In cede you happen to be involved in some sinful act, just atone for it and refrain from such acts in the future, but don’t get frightened by trivial things. This is samara. You will come by sorrow and happiness, honour and dishonor, respect and disrespect from time in your life. Your wife, your wishes now and disergarsd them then .The husband will have his way at times and at other the wife will have an upper hand. At time both will have to yield to the wishes of their son or even neighbor. One political party will hold sway at one time and the other one will carry the day at another. This is the way to the world.
Sweat your brows,
Or have a sound sleep;
The boat of life will sail on,
Whether you laugh or weep’

For the Self-realized one’s this world is fun. Never mind of people are unfair to you, but make sure you are not unfair to yourself. Such thins you get to Know in satang. You can definitely avoid being influenced by sorrows to some extent at least. You defend yourself saying, ‘By Gold I am innocent. So and so is making false allegations… God damn him, False allegations were leveled against kabir as well. People blamed Guru Nanak also. Why should you worry if the same is same to you? The Indweller Lord knows everything. You are immutable and so should be your हार्ट.
Saints like Guru Nanak, Kabirji, Tukaramji, Narsimha Mehta, who had attained the Kingdom of equanimity, didn’t get perturbed at all on being slandered by the people. They kept their cool intact. But general people get disturbed by slander and swear by God giving clarifications to defend themselves.
One may behave the way one likes, whether or not to be miserable is verily in your own hands; whether or not to be enamor is in your own hand. What you do? You have given away very generous of you. If is your discretion to keep your heart in the desired stated. you happiness depends upon other. ‘I would be happy if so and so person acts in such and such manner; if so and so dose not slander me. Things should go such and such way and only then I will be happy.. ‘You have made your heart a German toy, the key to which is in other’ hand. People make you dance to their desired tunes. People make your dance to their desired tune. People may praise you but it depends on you whether or not to get angered, afraid or vexed. Suppose you are bring maligned without a good cause and have done nothing to deserve it. Is it in your hands to explain things to the millions? It is not possible for you to cover the endure earth with leather; it is definitely easy to wear shoes to protect your feet form thorns. In the same way, take a lesson form the lives of great men and remain equations in all situations. Take good care not to be involved in any condemnable act, but if you are condemned in spite of that, thank God, “O God It is verily Your boundless grace.”
