Guest guest Posted December 15, 2004 Report Share Posted December 15, 2004 FEAR NOT - ABSOLUTELY "Four things are common to all the creatures, viz. food, sleep, fear and sexual union" -Sri Sai Satcharitra, Ch. VIII. Rabbits are among the most timid of animals. The rabbits of a colony, once had a meeting to discuss this trait of theirs. They came to the conclusion that as their timidity would never leave them, they were doomed to a miserable existence and it would be better to drown themselves and end their misery once and for all. Accordingly, they began to move towards a large lake. When the frogs in the lake saw the large number of rabbits approaching, they were filled with fear and made for the deepest part of the lake. Seeing this, the leader of the rabbits stopped and said to his fellow-creatures:"It is true we are timid, but here are animals more timid than we are. There is hope for us yet. Let us go back to our homes." And that is what they did. Moral: Just as we are afraid of others, others are afraid of us. Tamaso Ma Jyotirgamaya…. Be not idle! Do the best of which you are capable. Then accept whatever happens! That is theway to perfection and peace. Do your duty the best way you can – and you will gradually march to perfection. Mail - 250MB free storage. Do more. Manage less.
