Competition -- Is it the right attitude?

[Guest guest]

All:

 

I hope this posting will improve the "well being" and "nature" of

this forum to a level higher. I have seen some postings on and off

which tend to be detrimental to "positive growth". Please bear a

couple of minutes to gather the gist of what I am trying to say.

 

Story: Professor X drew a line on the blackboard. He told the

students "Make this line shorter". Immediately the students got up.

One tried to erase one corner, the other tried to erase the other

corner. Profeesor said, "Dont touch it, dont hate the line. Without

touching it, without any feeling of enmity to it, try to make it

shorter". All the students became quiet; they could not do anything.

He asked, "Should I make it shorter without touching it?". He drew

another line which was longer than the first line. Then he

said "Didnt I make the first line shorter?"

 

There is so much space for us to grow. You do not have to put

someone else down in order to go higher. Instead of trying to

compete, one should increase one's own worthiness. This is a great

Jyotish Remedy :-). Remember all that (Sun and ego and conquering

ego and competitiveness :-) ). All these planets tell us nothing

but "make simple corrections in your life" and "life will become

better". Not much to ask?? Or is it?? Remember, when we try to

compete with somebody, we are bringing about our own downfall. Or

are we not???

 

Aum Shanti Shanti Shanti.
