Three idols

There was a king who was very fond of art. He used to travel from country to country in search of idols. Thus the king kept many idols in his royal palace and took care of them himself. Among all idols, three idols were dearer to him than life itself. Everyone knew that the king was very fond of them.

One day when a servant was cleaning these idols, one of them accidentally broke with his hands. When the king came to know about this, he was very angry and immediately executed the servant. After hearing the punishment, the servant immediately broke the other two idols as well. Everyone was surprised to see this. The king asked the servant the reason for this, then the servant said - "My lord! Forgive me, these idols are made of clay, they are very fragile. They have not come with the boon of immortality. If not today, then tomorrow they would have broken. If it were to be broken by an animal, it would have to be punished for no reason. I have already received the death penalty, so I saved the lives of those two people by breaking the other two idols.

Hearing this, the king's eyes opened and he realized his mistake and freed the servant from punishment. The servant taught him the value of breath, and taught him that sitting on the judge's seat and punishing him with death for a small crime because of his personal love is an insult to that seat. One should always respect him by sitting on a high seat. Be it a king or anyone who is chosen to judge, he should understand the importance of justice. The king loved the idol but it was against justice to put the servant to death for him. Sit on the seat of justice to anyone away from his feelings Decision should be taken away.

The king understood that this servant was many times better than me, who thought of Parhit even though he was so close to death! The king asked the servant that despite facing death for no reason, you did not curse God, you remained fearless, what is the reason for bearing the qualities of restraint, equanimity and foresight? The servant told that before you worked here, I was a servant of a rich Seth. My Seth was very happy with me but whenever there was a bitter experience he used to abuse God a lot.

One day Seth was eating cucumber. Incidentally that cucumber was bitter. Seth gave me that cucumber. I ate it with gusto as if it was very delicious. Seth asked – “The cucumber was very bitter. How did you eat like that?" So I said – “Seth ji you are my master. It serves delicious food every day. If one day you give something bitter, then what is the harm in accepting it?" Rajaji Similarly, if God has given so much happiness and wealth, and sometimes he gives a bitter grant, then it is not right to doubt his good faith. Birth. , living and dying are all due to Him.

*Education:-*

Actually, if we understand, whatever happens in life, it is the mercy of God. What God does is for good! If you consider happiness and sorrow as the gift of God, take it with moderation and always think of Parhit.
