🙏🙏🙏I Won’t Go To The Temple Again...
A daughter went to her father and said...
“I won't be going to temple anymore..”
The father said:
“may I ask why?”
A daughter went to her father and said...
“I won't be going to temple anymore..”
The father said:
“may I ask why?”
She said:
“when I go there All I see is people on their mobile phones during service & bhajan, some are gossiping, some just are not living with integrity, they are all just hypocrites...”
“when I go there All I see is people on their mobile phones during service & bhajan, some are gossiping, some just are not living with integrity, they are all just hypocrites...”
Father became silent, and then said:
“OK... can I ask you to do something for me before you make your final decision?”
“OK... can I ask you to do something for me before you make your final decision?”
She said:
“Yes.. what's that?”
He said:
“Plz take a glass of water and walk around the temple 2 times; but you mustn’t let any water fall out the glass.”
She said:
“yes... I can definitely do that.”
“Yes.. what's that?”
He said:
“Plz take a glass of water and walk around the temple 2 times; but you mustn’t let any water fall out the glass.”
She said:
“yes... I can definitely do that.”
Then...
She came back and said
“it's done and here is the Glass Of Water”
He asked her 3 questions:
1. Did you see anybody on their phone?
2. Did you see anybody gossiping?
3. Was anybody living without Integrity?
She came back and said
“it's done and here is the Glass Of Water”
He asked her 3 questions:
1. Did you see anybody on their phone?
2. Did you see anybody gossiping?
3. Was anybody living without Integrity?
She Said:
“How could I have seen anyone else?.... I didn't see anything; All I was focused on was the glass and the water within it., making sure the water never dropped.”
“How could I have seen anyone else?.... I didn't see anything; All I was focused on was the glass and the water within it., making sure the water never dropped.”
That moment, as she responded to her father, she got her answers to the questions that she had. We go to temples to focus on connecting to the Divine and not pay attention to what others are doing.
