The Kitten & the Cadillac!


Mulla Nasrudin had once harnessed a kitten to his broken-down Cadillac.

The bystanders pointed out that, this was absurd and they also questioned him, how can the tiny kitten pull his Cadillac?

Mulla replied, "Yes I know, you all may think so! But I must tell you that, I have got a horsewhip for that kitten ...!"

Moral of the Story ....

Friends, most of us think that just by forcing anything can be made possible, just a horsewhip is needed and we have to do it a little harder.
According to most of us, we don’t succeed, because we are not working hard at it. Even after working hard if we still don’t succeed, then we think we are not putting all our energy into it.... Friends, this is generally the logic of the accidental world.
Only the essential man knows that, if one is stuck or unable to move further or unable to reach one’s goal, it is not because one is not putting more energy or enough force, but it is because one is not allowing the existence to intervene and make it happen.
Friends, in fact, nothing is needed to be done by us ...Only a deep trust and surrender is more than enough...!!

Have a Meaningful Day Friends!

Possessiveness


Mulla Nasruddin once walked into the office of a cemetery and complained to the manager, "I know well that my wife is buried here in this cemetery but I can't find her grave."

The manager opened his register and asked, "What is her name?"
Mulla said, "Mrs. Nasruddin!"

The manager checked the register thoroughly and said, "There is no mention of Mrs. Nasruddin’s grave, but there is one Mr. Mulla Nasruddin buried here." 

The manager then apologetically added, "We are sorry Sir, it looks like something has gone wrong in our register."

Mulla Nasruddin immediately replied, "No...No...In fact, nothing is wrong from your side.... Just show me the grave of Mr. Mulla Nasruddin. Actually, everything is in my name you see....!"

Moral of the Story ...

Friends, even the grave of his wife is in Mulla’s own name! This is possession... one goes on trying to possess everything! This is not love. In fact, when one tries to possess, one hates, destroys, kills and becomes a sort of murderer.
