Story upload cycle - One new story added every Thursday I sometimes wonder, if it is the twinkle in there eye or the story, that fills the air with so much of Joy. These little souls, still so clean and pure, their smile so genuine and their laughters so free. It is their belief, that what the story says is possible, that actually feeds the story with a soul and an aura which dances around, and reverberate in their chuckles. - Stand up-They all jump up - He laughed Ha Ha Ha-They all go Ha Ha Ha - With a bow and arrow-They say nah, it was a machine gun and it went - and the sounds of the machine gun fills the room again - The lake was full of nectar-Nah, strawberry milk, chocolate milk etc - In the cave there were-Muffin, ladoos, and on they go mentioning the yummiest of treats. Suddenly, you see the ones who were sitting a bit behind, gradually moving up and forward, to get a closer look at your expression, as if to jump up, when the story directs. They are totally unconditioned, they still believe in miracles and that if it can be thought of, it can certainly happen. Telling a Story to the little ones is actually the best experience, there is no resistance of any kinds, as the word ‘impossible’ has still not been itched in their tender minds. They are like this soft clay, waiting to be shaped by the potter. The adventure starts with the little ones, every action enacted, every statement of anger, shouted out, every movement of the hands depicted and every character acted. - The pitch of the voice sometimes so loud, that hands cover their ears. - The descriptions sometimes a bit scary, that they cover their eyes - The voice sometimes so soft, that the room becomes totally silent. There have been times, when dressed up like a character, have narrated the whole story, sometimes jumped up myself to eat the Sun. As if the story-teller fades away and only the story remains, the children are transported to the land of possibilities. Then a sudden stop, to ask the morals, and the depth of the answers prove that, it does not have to be all serious for them to soak in the essence. The Scriptures are not beyond their understanding and no knowledge too deep for them to comprehend. When they get immersed in the story they would never forget neither the story nor the moral and values. Somewhere in their hearts, I am sure that message of love has been carved, which will re-surface, when others least expect it. Their spark of kindness, will someday light the whole world. The knowledge of the divine scriptures, wrapped in this absurd, fun and dramatic story-telling will live in their hearts forever.

Moral of the Story If God has given us power to protect, to help and to share we should not misuse the power. The Khastriyas were made powerful by God, as their duty was to protect the citizens and the people. However, they started misusing their power. That is wrong. When we have the capability and the power we should use it to help others. If we don't share our grace and use out powers to help others, God comes and makes us help. He teaches us the lesson of sharing. Parsuramji was an obedient child. He respected his parents and served all. If we feel hat what is happening around is not right. We should open our mouth and speak. If the wise remain quiet the fools are going to talk. If the good people remain quiet, the bad people are really going to take advantage of Situation. If we are kind and good, we should spread the kindness. If there is wrong happening, we should stop the wrong. If we are calm and quiet and nice. The others will feel the vibration and become calm also. Calmness spreads just like he fragrance of the flower. Just like Ramji calmed Parashuramji, and the love in Ramji's heart reached Praashuramji's heart. If we have a good knowledge about anything, we should share the wisdom. As when we share the knowledge increases. Just like Parashuramji shared his wisdom. Remember, if there is evil in the world, god is watching and he will make sure that all the evil goes away and the world becomes nice and happy place. God will help us if we help ourselves. We can make a difference, we can make the world a better place, if we speak up, take action and not remain quiet. Hari Om
Moral of the Story We should respect our elder and not be too full of ourselves. Indra was too full of himself and disrespect his guru, fo this he had to really pay. When we respect our teachers, we become strong just like Bali. We learned that mother's love their children a lot. Aditiy Ma prayed really hard for her children the Devas. When we pray god listens, but he never supports anybody who has done wrong. God did not help Indra, as he had disrespected is teacher and Bali won without cheating. The duty of siblings is to help each other. When god became the son of Aditi, he went to help Indra, by getting back heavens for him. Bali was wise, but had a bit of ego in him, when said ask for something based on my potential. So, God wanted to take aways that ego. Bali, however was great at keeping his word. Ones given our words should not be taken back. Bali knew that if God takes away everything, we should not be sad. As all belongs to God only. Never judge, question or doubt God. He totally surrendered. If God punishes us, he feels sad. Vishnuji stood as guard and Patalok When God is there, all wealth is there. There is so much of joy and contentment. Vishnuji and Lakhmiji both went to patalok. Hari Om
Moral of the Story Nobody is too young to learn about God. We start learning before we are born, as we can hear all that is being said. We should always respect and love everybody. Prahlad never got upset with his father Hiranyakashyapu or his teachers. Prahlad never complained and always forgave the people who had wronged him. He always had full faith in God, he said not matter what my God is always in control and he will aways come to save me. Hiranyakashyapu was angry with God, however, he sent his son to the gurukul and knew that when a child is young he should don't be spoiled by fulfilling their wants, but only their need. Never say, I want, I want, I want. Gurukul teaches us that we should live a simple life, wear simple cloths, love all and be in harmony with nature. Hari Om
Moral of the Story The Varaha is a Boar. Why this avatar, as they can smell the earth. We should never be so arrogant like Hiranyaksha and Hiranyakasyapu. They thought that they are can not be destroyed. God is always more powerful and if we use our powers for evil things, god will come and set us right. If we use our powers for evil deeds, ultimately there is no where but down to go. It will ultimately destroy us and all the powers will vanish. If we use our powers to help others, God helps us. We have to be careful, how we use our strength. Greed is bad - Never keeps saying I want I want, like Hiranyaksha. Never say I am the best forget about the rest, like Hiranyaksha. Very important to remember here That Hiranyaksha and Hiranyakasyapu were Jay and Vijay. So, God actually came to rescue them. Even if we feel that God is punishing us, it is for our best. What is Pralay? Time changes, seasons pass, years pass. So, for instance, when summer comes it stays for awhile and then it goes aways, then winter comes and it stays for awhile and then it goes away, and so on. There is a cycle and it repeats itself. So, the end of winter is known as parlay, it gives up itself for spring and so on. But, the end of winter is a new beginning for spring and so on. Pralay is the momentary end of something. When something gets over it is pralay for that, but something new starts all over. How can the earth fall in the ocean? How can the earth fall in the ocean, When the oceans are in the earth. Sounds funny initially right. There are three types of oceans. One beyond our universe - It is the causal ocean. Our universe is in it. At bottom of our universe also there is a ocean - It is known as the Garbodhaka Ocean On Earth also there is an ocean In us also there is a ocean As we can fall in the ocean on earth, the earth can fall in the ocean in the universe and the universe is already in the ocean Hari Om
