THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
OUR MOST BELOVED BHAGAWAN’S DIVINE MESSAGE
A devotee of Hanuman was once driving a cartload of
grain to the market. On the way, one wheel got stuck
and the cart could not be drawn forward. The cart
slanted too, and a few bags fell on the ground. The
devotee sat on the cart and started praying to
Hanuman. He completed chanting the 108 names
and even the 1008 names. When nothing happened,
he started blaming the Lord and reviling Him for not
rescuing him. Hanuman then appeared and took him
to task! “Young man, instead of doing your duty by
applying your strength on the job, you sat there,
prayed and started reviling Me!” Come on, put your
shoulder to the wheel and lift it up chanting My
name! First contribute self-effort,” said the Lord. You
must use all the talents awarded to you in a prayerful
and humble mood. Until then, you have no right to seek the help and intervention of the Lord.
