Oil lamp


It was a town. He was a rich man living in the town. He used to light a ghee lamp and place it in the temple for the attainment of happiness, peace, joy and virtue in life. The other person was a poor man. He used to light a lamp of mustard oil and put it in an alley every day. That alley was dark. The process of putting the lamp on was going on incessantly, one day both of them died suddenly.

Both died and reached Yamlok. The rich were given inferior facilities and the poor were given upper class facilities. Seeing the rich being biased in this system, he told Dharmaraj, "I have heard that God does not discriminate against such people as His children. In his court, the rich and the poor are given equal justice. Then why such discriminatory injustice?

Dharmaraja countered instead of answering, injustice? What injustice? Dhanwan Bolyo, Edge K. The fruit of good deeds also differed in providing convenience. Hearing this, Dharmaraja asked, what discrimination did you see? Explaining the reason for the difference, Dhanwan said, "Lower facility for those who put lamps in the temple and higher facilities for those who put oil lamps in the streets!" Dharmaraja replied to compromise, 'Selfish man of the world, listen. This star is not a folk on earth that any such idea that can be achieved through bribery, bribery, identity has no place in Yamalok. The differences or prejudices you see reveal your ignorance of the principle of karma. Because of your selfish understanding and greedy intellect, you also saw discrimination in the justice of nature.

Here in the court of Dharmaraja the importance of virtue is not based on value. But also evaluated on the basis of the usefulness of the work. The temple where you used to light the lamp, the lamp of ghee, was already lit. The lamp, which was set up to earn merit with the intention of self-interest, could only illuminate between the four walls of the temple, while the two lamps, such as the sun and the moon, were made by God. Becoming a camera keeps the corners of the earth illuminated day and night. In this, where did the God of Tara Ghee Deewana need it? Even though he was poor, he used to light an oil lamp in the street. That alley was dark. He spread the light in a place where he was showing his way to thousands of people like blind, crippled, old, woman, child etc.

Its oil lamp was many times more useful than Tara ghee lamp!

He did good deeds for the sake of personal interest while the poor person did good deeds of public welfare with the spirit of social service. The whole earth becomes his own family for all those who remove the sufferings by adopting the self-sovereign. The same becomes true officer. There is a fundamental difference between the two of you. The assessment made cannot be said to be discriminatory or biased in any way.

The sun rises for charity, the river flows for charity, the wind blows for charity. In this order, the poor man with the oil lamp becomes the first officer of the highest class of comforts as he has done the same pious good deed of God and nature. Has this solved your doubts? Do you still need more understanding? '

Instead of answering Dharmaraj's question, Dhanwan became ashamed and bowed down due to his ignorance. The knowledge, skills, intelligence, skills, experience, learning, wealth, ego - everything he had acquired began to melt like ice! Today, for the first time, the rich man was defeated!
