Help Yourself
Have you ever thought why two people born at the same time, same day and same month have different fate? Why one of them succeed and the other spends a moderate life? Or the fact that two children of a mother never have the same fate. These are some of the differences but many such differences we encounter in our daily life.
It’s not just the position and angles of the celestial bodies that affect our lives but it is also the karmas of past life. The karmas have the potential to affect the present and future. It may be that we are very kind, caring, gentle and loving but then also we are facing difficulties. People are very happy near us because we emit positive vibrations. So why we face trouble? It’s because the deeds of previous life show its effect in the present life.
Karma holds a significant place in our lives. Karna in Mahabharat is the perfect example of it. He was ‘Surya Putra’ but throughout his life, he was recognized as ‘Soot Putra’. He was brave, religious, noted for his extraordinary charity but then also whole life he suffered sarcasm and insult. The reason is Karma.
If we leave ‘Treta Yuga’ and come back to ‘Kalyuga’ then the names ‘Sachin Tendulkar’ and Vinod Kambli’ are not unknown. They both started their promising career but the name ‘Sachin Tendulkar’ changed the meaning of cricket. On the other hand, few youngsters will now recognize Vinod Kambali. Both were good friends, talented and before joining Indian Cricket Team use to practice together. But the career graph of former rose while that of latter showed a downward trend.
Karma is important but this doesn’t mean that we leave everything on karma and sit back, doing nothing and getting disheartened. Time is a very strong factor, it neither leaves nor cheers anyone. It can show a person the reality mirror anytime and at anyplace. A person failing to succeed at an early age can shine like a star in his later age provided he is putting effort in the right direction. The key is never to give up hope, learn from your past mistakes and be truthful to yourself and your work then see how all pieces of the puzzle fit together. God helps those who help themselves!
