Born to serve.
You see some people and wonder from where they get so much energy to serve
others!
I know of somebody, let us call him P, and he has been serving his parents for
almost 2 decades. It has been an amazing service, and I am not sure what gives
him so much strength to do it.
He has no compulsions to do it, but he does it. No further comments!
There is another person, and let us call him N. His case gets a little more weird.
His parents had a daughter and she was challenged. This meant that that girl
child would need life long care, and from a person who would do it voluntarily.
Fairly obviously this is a thought that would cross the mind of any parent.
Perhaps that thought was expressed or stayed on in the thoughts of the parents.
They then had a son. Surely the thoughts of the parents got transmitted (you
need to get 24 horses to pull me away from that point of view)..and a the son
had (s) this service attitude. Obviously, when you have that attitude, it cannot
be restricted to just his sister it is in fact second nature to him. People with
this attitude also develop a very high sense of justice, peace, and love.
So the fact that he came to this world to look after his sister is so engrained in
him that he did not get married. His need in life for some solace has been
religious. This allows him to see ALL his service to his sister, his friends, his
neighbors, his religious associates, as part of his life. So much so that he did
not even consider marriage a real life, modern day Bheeshma who sacrificed
his worldly pleasures to meet the requirements of his fathers family
responsibilities.
Not sure whether even if HIS OWN parents acknowledge that . His neigbhbors do
NOT. In fact the co-operative society is a vague animal where nobody wishes to
do anything, but everybody hopes things will turn out fine!
Are there many such people in the world?
Surprisingly yes.
These are the people who run Sabhas, samajs, become Trustees of hospitals (I
know one trust where the trustees meet EVERYDAY), runners outfits (arranging
events, co-ordinating events..)their ONE AND ONLY goal is to make the art /
sport more famous!
God bless all of them.
I am not naming any of the peopleit would be embarrassing for them. Here this
is a REAL salute!

Subra,
Humbling!
Not sure if I would be able to do what the brother with mentally challenged sister
is doing without any bitterness, resentment.
I know how much I have to grow!
subra on July 31st, 2013 at 9:10 am
And SAM he is not young anymore he is a couple of years elder to me. If he
were born 150 years ago, we would have called him a saint. Even now he does 1
hour talk sessions at a Jain temple very very near YOUR Ghatkopar house

I salute these Real Heroes!! These are men of honour!!

The people who has really defined the purpose of life. May God bless them.
They do it so peacefully and the world never notices and even their left hand
doesnt know what their right is doing..
If we look around we can find many such noble hearts but the thing is the
opposite characters outnumber these by far and get the focuses and attention
too.

Aditya

on saintliness.
