SMS FROM GOD...........

 

 

GOD: Hello. You called me. I, Me, Myself (IMM): Called you? No, who is this?

GOD: This is God. I heard your prayers. So I thought I will chat with you. IMM:

Sure, I pray. Just makes me feel good. Actually, am busy now. In the midst of

something, you know. GOD: What are you busy with? Ants are busy, too. IMM:

Don't know. But I can't find free time. Life has become hectic. It's rush hour

all the time. GOD: Sure. Activity gets you busy. But productivity gets you

results. Activity consumes time. Productivity frees it. IMM: But I still can't

figure it out. By the way, I was not expecting YOU to buzz me on instant

messaging chat. GOD: Well, I wanted to help you resolve your fight for time by

giving you some clarity. I wanted to reach you through the medium you are

comfortable with. IMM: Tell me, why has life become so complicated? GOD: Stop

analysing life. Just live it. Analysis is what makes it complicated. IMM: Why

are we then constantly unhappy? GOD: Your today is the tomorrow that you

worried about yesterday. You are worrying because the act of worrying has

become a habit. That's why you are not happy.

 

IMM: But how can we not worry when there is so much uncertainty? GOD:

Uncertainty is inevitable, but worrying is optional. IMM: But then, there is so

much pain due to uncertainty. GOD: Pain is inevitable, but suffering is

optional. IMM: If suffering is optional, why do good people always suffer? GOD:

Diamonds cannot be polished without friction. Gold cannot be purified without

fire. Good people go through trials. With that experience their life becomes

better, not bitter. IMM: You mean to say such experience is useful? GOD: Yes.

Experience is a hard teacher, though. She gives the test first and the lessons

afterwards. IMM: But still, why should we go through such tests? Why can't we

be free from problems? GOD: Problems are Purposeful Roadblocks Offering

Beneficial Lessons to Enhance Mental Strength. Inner strength comes from

struggle and endurance, not when you are free from problems. IMM: Frankly in

the midst of so many problems, we don't know where we are heading. GOD: If you

look outside you will not know where you are heading. Look inside. Looking

outside, you dream. Looking inside, you awaken. Eyes provide sight. Heart

provides insight.

IMM: Sometimes not succeeding fast seems to hurt more than moving in the right

direction. GOD: Success is relative, quantified by others. Satisfaction is

absolute, quantified by you. Knowing the road ahead is more satisfying than

knowing you rode ahead. IMM: Sometimes I ask, who am I, why am I here? I don't

know the answers. GOD: Seek not to find who you are, but to determine who you

want to be. Stop looking for a purpose as to why you are here. Create it. Life

is not a process of discovery but a process of creation. IMM: How can I get the

best out of life? GOD: Face your past without regret. Handle your present with

confidence. Prepare for the future without fear. IMM: Sometimes my prayers are

not answered. GOD: There are no unanswered prayers. Remember you will always

get what you need when you need it, NOT necessarily what you want. Therefore at

times the answer is NO.IMM: Thank you for this wonderful chat. I think I

understand now and I will try to be less fearful.

GOD: Keep the faith and drop the fear. Life is a mystery to solve, not a problem

to resolve. Life is wonderful if you know how to live.

And remember my Child, I am always with you! Call me anytime you want to chat!

Sairam sister Madhvi,

 

This is very good one. I enjoyed reading this.

 

Infact, this came in "The Speaking Tree" of the Mumbai edition of

Times of India on 6th May 2005.

Thank you for sending this.

Sounds simple enough yet hard to remember it all at

the right time!! I suppose one has to start somewhere,

sometime. Thanks.

God Bless,

Aruna

Sai Ram,

 

Thanks for that Madhvi! Swami definately has a sense of humour.

However, his humour paradoxically is serious and thought-provoking.

Maybe I should reword that...action-provoking.

Once again thanks for that

Sai Ram
