दुःख में सुमिरन सब करे, सुख में करे न कोई
जो सुख में सुमिरन करे, तो दुःख काहे को होई...
The closest translation could be - Everyone thinks of Him in times of sorrow, nobody thinks of Him in joy. If everyone could think of Him in times of joy, then why should there be a reason for sorrow???
How long did you pray when that loved one's life was in danger? Now, how long did you pray after someone was born in the family?
How long did you pray when he / she was in ICU in critical condition? How long did you pray after the doctor said everything was ok?
From the last day of exams till the date of result, you prayed for good results... On getting that rank, you went partying the same evening...
How long did you think of Him when that promotion / appraisal / salary increment was due??? How long did you think of Him after they came???
Even if everything in your life is going great, awesome, perfect... what is the longest you have thought of Him at a single time in the last 1 year???
How long did you think of Him before she finally said "yes"? How long have you thought of Him after marrying her?
(well... I could be wrong on this one... for all I know, you could be thinking of Him longer and harder now...)
Everytime we faced testing times, we prayed harder and with greater intensity... Everytime when the things became alright we made a quick thankyou, maybe a trip to temple, a coconut and a few flowers, a chaddar, a candle depending on our belief system... thats it...
Just imagine how you would feel if you give all the joys, toys, good food, facilities, everything to your little one and he walks away from you everytime with just a Thanks.
That little one enjoys everything you give and still keeps walking away from you... what will you do???
At some point you will feel like reminding him that you are the one giving and that he should be coming towards you and not going away from you... won't you feel that???
Kabir was right...
Do you still need some swami or some baba to come and tell you this truth???
