Guest guest Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 Swami once told the following wonderful Story : A person was once having a conversation with God and he asked 'Lord, I would like to know what Heaven and Hell look like". God led the person to two doors, God opened one of the doors and the Person looked in. In the middle of the room was a large round table and in the middle of the table was a large pot of Food which smelt delicious which made the person's mouth water. The people sitting around the table were thin and very sicky. They appeared to be totally famished.They were holding spoons with very long handles that were strapped to their arms and each found it possible to reach into the pot of stew and take a spoonful. But because the handle was longer than their arms, they could not get the spoons back into their mouths.The person shuddered at the sight of their misery and suffering. God then said " You have seen Hell.Then they went to the next room and opened the door. It was exactly the same as the first one. There was the large round table with the large pot of Delicious food . The people were equipped with the same long-handled spoons, but here the people were well nourished and plump, laughing and talking, The person looked at God and said that He did not understand the Difference. The Lord said 'It is simple .It requires but one skill. The happy people have learnt to feed eachother, while the greedy think only of themselves.'Om Sai Ram Unlimited freedom, unlimited storage.
