There was a man who wanted to become very rich. He was a whiner who always complained that despite all his efforts, he was not rewarded and luck had not favored him. He blamed all successful personnel as destiny favored them blah blah and blah!
Instead of hard work, he relied on instant success. He was a true follower of God and believed in Him very much. He used to pray the God day-in and day-out as to make him rich by having him strike the first prize in the local lottery tickets.
Years went by but the man had never won a lottery. At last, he died and he was taken to God.He complained to God, “I have remained a true Bhakt to you and I kept on praying you till my last breathe. All I wanted is to make me rich by making me win a lottery prize. You could not do this to me?”
The God replied, “I would have made you win one but you did not even buy a lottery ticket!”
Moral: Even for a miracle to help you, you should put in some efforts. Put in your efforts and do your best. God will take care of the rest!
“Aho Siddharthathaa Tesham Esham Santiha Panaya, Atha Yesham Punah Paani Deva dattau Dasha Unglii” meaning… “Those who have two hands, are born with the capability to realize success, because they are born with the divine blessing of hands with ten fingers”
A tamil kavita says, "verunkai enbadu madattanam - pattu viralgale mooladhanam" empty hands is nothing but 10 fingers are your investment.
“Na Paani Laabhadhiko Labha Kaschama Vidyate…” There is no greater gain than gain of hands”
Let us use our hands to create useful and Excellent contributions.
