Our lives are richer when we share, says Rajyogi Brahmakumar Nikunj ji
All of us just love to take everything and anything that comes our way, isn’t it trueIJ but when it comes to giving something, our face becomes grim and our heart sinks, why is it soIJ If we look at what is happening around us, we would realize that we have become a
society of takers, and surprisingly when it comes to taking, none of us counts the cost, but when it comes to giving every tiny item is checked and calculated. As a result there is little left in this world to take or give that is really valuable.
As takers, we try our best to gain as much as we can from others without providing anything back or providing just a little bit back in return. Those who are taker’s are not known as benevolent people or generous and will tend to have a mindset of ‘what’s in it for meIJ Such people are inclined to look for what they can gain from others, sometimes without considering the option of giving something from themselves. On the other hand, givers are those who are selfless and tend to give all they have, or a lot of what they have and usually are not willing to take anything back. Giving is a fabulous trait that brings blessings and abundance, as long as it is coming from a complete place and it is used in the right dose.
The universe responds very well to giving when it comes from a “pure” place and a true willingness to give. Unfortunately, the irony of today’s time is that we have trained our current generation to just take..take and take without giving their fair share and we have set up systems that encourage the attitude of giving a little and getting a great deal in return. However, in this whole act of smartness, we tend to forget that nothing in this world comes without paying a price, if not now then for sure it will be later.
There is nothing for free, that is the universal law. Even the air we all breath has to be paid for by energy we use to inhale and exhale! If this simple law and all its deep implications could be understood and accepted, then our dealings with others would be based upon honesty.
So let us all examine that how much have we received and how much have we given to others and to the society.
