Message shared By #Boss

An excellent message !!

Once a group of 50 people was attending a seminar....

Suddenly the speaker stopped and started giving each person a balloon....

Each one was asked to write his/her name on it using a marker pen....

Then all the balloons were collected and put in another room....

Now these delegates were let in that room and asked to find the balloon which had their name written, within 5 minutes.....

Everyone was frantically searching for their name, pushing, colliding with each other, and there was utter chaos.....

At the end of 5 minutes, no one could find their own balloon......

Now, each one was asked to randomly collect a balloon and give it to the person whose name was written on it.....

Within minutes everyone had their own balloon....

The speaker began:

"This is exactly happening in our lives....
Everyone is frantically looking for happiness all around, not knowing where it is....
Our happiness lies in the happiness of other people....

Give them their happiness, you will get your own happiness....."
👍👍👍

Good Morning, Happy Week Ahead 😊👍

#Karna

Arjuna once asked Krishna, " Lord, why do people consider Karna more generous than Yudhistara? Neither have ever refused whatever has been asked for nor whoever has asked. So why is Karna considered greater than Yudhistara?"

The Lord said with a smile, "Come, I'll show you why."

Disguised as brahmins, they first went to Yudhishtira's court and asked for sandalwood sticks to conduct 'yagna'. The king immediately sent his soldiers to all parts of his Kingdom in search of sandalwood sticks. It was monsoon, the trees were all drenched and the soldiers returned with wet sandalwood pieces. Yagna was not possible with the wet sticks.

Krishna and Arjuna proceeded to Karna's court next and asked for the same sticks. Karna thought for a while and said " as it's raining for several days now, it will be impossible to collect dry sandalwood sticks. But there is a way. Please wait for a while."
Saying this, Karna proceeded to chop and cut down the doors and windows of the court which were made of sandalwood and after making them into pieces, gifted the dry sandalwood sticks to the brahmins to conduct 'yagna'.
They accepted the offerings and went back. On their way back, Krishna asked Arjuna "do you realise the difference between the two, Arjuna? Had we asked Yudhishtira to give his doors and windows for us to conduct yagna, he would have given us without a second thought. But he did not think of it himself. We did not ask Karna either. Yudhishtira gave because that was his dharma. Karna gave because he loves to give. This is the difference between the two and that is why Karna is considered greater. Whatever work you do becomes nobler when you do it with love."

We can work with different attitudes. Someone asked you to, or as a duty or as your dharma or as Karna did, out of love for doing the job. The last said is however, the best; whatever work you do, love it, enjoy the work.
