THE WAY OF GODS REWARD
God rewards Mitra: "Push" :
 |
| GOD REWARDING MITRA |
A man, Mitra by name, meditated for months to get God's blessings. God appeared and asked him, "What do you want ?"
"Please give me something by which I can live very long" , Mitra requested.
Pointing to a big rock, the God said, "Push this rock and you will get something which will lengthen your life span."
 |
| MITRA PUSHING ROCK |
Mitra pushed the heavy rock by using all his strength. He did so for years together. However, the rock did not move.
One day a tiger attacked Mitra. He fought with it and killed it as if in a miracle.
Satan enters - when Mitra gets frustrated :
Mitra was somewhat frustrated, as the rock remained unmoved after years of pushing. Satan was observing Mitra all along. Seeing opportunity, Satan came to Mitra and said, "What did you get by pushing that rock? Nothing! The God has cheated you."
"What is the use of working so hard when there is no outcome? Instead of toiling without rest, enjoy your life," advised Satan.
Mitra stops 'PUSHING' :
"Yes," thought Mitra and stopped pushing the rock from that day.
One day a wolf attacked Mitra. Surprisingly, Mitra fought against the beast but the beast overpowered him and ate a part of his body before leaving him in agony.
Mitra scolds God :
God reappeared now. Mitra was angry and scolded him. "Knowing full well that the rock is immovable, you asked me to push it. You gave a false hope that I will get something, which will lengthen my life. You are a liar! And here I am not able to fight a mere wolf now!"
"My son," God said, "Pushing the rock gave you good health and strong muscles with which you could defeat a tiger. When you stopped pushing the rock and relaxed you ruined your health. You could not fight even a wolf!"
"Your only job was to PUSH." continued God. "Rewards I give. How I reward is not for you to ask. Have faith and just keep PUSHING!"
Just keep PUSHING :
God always (and really always) rewards each and every hard work. However, sometimes we do not understand his way of rewarding and feel that our efforts are in vein. Thereafter, we feel discouraged and frustrated; and fall into Satan's hands by withdrawing from PUSHING. That is the beginning of our end.
Even when everything seems meaningless, ... just P.U.S.H.! When professionally you feel disappointed, ... just P.U.S.H.! When people criticise you for your good works, ... just P.U.S.H.! When your action apparently produces no result, ... just P.U.S.H. ! When people just don't understand you, ... Just keep PUSHING.
MORAL OF THE STORY

In studies :
