There is a proverb in Tamil-"When there is a ripe fruit, why should we choose the raw one? The lesson behind this proverb is this- "When we can use soft words why should we utter harsh words? Generally human beings are carried away by emotions. Emotions rise because of our desires and expectations. When our expectations do not turn the way we thought, we become excited and falsely implement somebody as responsible for the failure and start blaming them very harshly. First of all, we must remember that nothing happens with our wishes and plan. Every thing is really predecided in the realm of the Divine. But man has to act, exerting his full capacities and he should not keep quiet, expecting God to intervene. When we have put forth the best efforts, we may leave it to God. It is for Him to decide. It may turn either way. But accept His Will without murmur. Many of the devotees go on complain, that God do not look at them or angry with them. Nothing is really True. God showers His grace on all. Inverted pots do not gather even a little bit of water even if there is a heavy downpour. But upright pots gather all the water that falls inside the pot. We turn our attention away from God and complains that God do not love us. Divert the attention that is shown to the worldly achievements and prosperity towards God. Then we can appreciate the fact that God is impartial and loves one and All. Sairam, Saisaran.
