Once a man went to a Watch shop in his bicycle to buy a new watch. As he was about to enter the shop, he saw an old friend there. They were too happy to meet each other after a long time. They chitchatted for a while. The friend came with him into the
shop and they chose a suitable watch for him.
They came out joyfully and took a long walk together. They had a cup of tea and then parted ways. The man walked back to his home.
Only after reaching home, he remembered that he had parked his bicycle outside the watch shop.

Only after reaching home, he remembered that he had parked his bicycle outside the watch shop.
He immediately rushed to the shop. Fortunately, his bicycle was very much standing there. With a great relief, he rode in his bicycle and on his way, he saw a temple. He felt he should thank God for getting back his bicycle. He parked his bicycle outside the temple and
went in to do his prayers.
As he came out of the temple, his cycle was missing.
He frantically searched here and there but no use. It was obvious that someone had stolen it.

As he came out of the temple, his cycle was missing.
He frantically searched here and there but no use. It was obvious that someone had stolen it.
He felt very dejected and angry. He got angry on God, who had not protected his bicycle particularly
when his very purpose of visiting the temple was for thanking God for having saved his bicycle earlier!
Hearing his loud lamenting, an old man who was passing by, asked him what happened. The man narrated his woeful story and said, “I am not going to believe in God anymore.

He has no concern for a devotee like me when I came to him in fact for thanksgiving”.
The old man asked, “Did you lock your bicycle before going into the temple?”
The man thought for a while and said, “I am afraid I did not”.

The old man asked, “Did you lock your bicycle before going into the temple?”
The man thought for a while and said, “I am afraid I did not”.
Did you lock your cycle
when you had parked outside the watch shop?
Yes; I did.
Then why blame God for your lack of attentiveness? said the old man and moved away.
This the problem with us. We do not exercise shraddha in our actions, and then put the blame on God for the happenings.”
Yes; I did.
