10%. SHARE.

A very rich man asked a beggar on the side of the road.. "Why are you begging when you are healthy...?" 


The beggar replied.. "I have no work for months.. If you give me a job, I will stop begging from now on." 


The rich man smiled and said.. "I cannot give you a job.. But I have something better. Why don't you become my business partner..." 


The beggar could not believe what he said.. "What are you saying, is this possible...?" 


“Yes I have a rice mill. You supply rice to the market and whatever profit we make, we will share it at the end of the month.." 


Tears of joy rolled down the eyes of the beggar.. "You have come to me like an angel from heaven, how can I thank you enough.." 


Then the beggar asked .. "How will we share the profit..? Will I take 20% and you 80%.. Or will I take 10% and you 90%.. Whatever it is... I am ready and very happy..." 


The rich man lovingly placed his hand on his head.. "I want only 10% of the profit, the rest 90% is yours.. So that you can progress.." 


The beggar fell on his knees.. and said crying... "I will do as you say... I am very grateful to you.... And from the next day the beggar started working..


With his hard work, very soon his sales increased. He started making progress every day… and then the day came when the profits are to be shared.


And even that 10% seemed like a lot for the beggar. He had never imagined that much. Suddenly a devilish thought came to his mind… “I have worked hard all day and night… and that rich man did not do anything… except giving me an opportunity… why should I give him this 10%… he does not deserve it at all… 


And then the rich man came to collect his share of 10% in the profit.  The beggar informed “There are some accounts still pending, I have incurred a loss, I have to pay off loans from people, and he started avoiding giving the share to the rich man.” 


The rich man said “I know how much profit you have made, then why are you avoiding giving me my share?” The beggar immediately replied "You are not entitled to this profit..because I have done all the hard work..."


Now think... if we were that rich man and heard such an answer from the beggar... then... what would we have done?


Similarly... God gave us life, hands, legs, eyes, ears, brain, understanding... tongue to speak... emotions... "We should remember that God has the right to 10% of our time. We should happily give it to him by chanting God's name... and... should thank God who gave us life and happiness.

LOVE AND COMPASSION.

A 6-year old boy was in the market with his 3-year old sister...


Suddenly the boy found that his sister was lagging behind. 


He stopped and looked back and saw his sister was standing in front of a toy shop and was watching something with great interest. 


The boy went back to her and asked, "Do you want something?" 


The sister pointed at the doll. The boy held her hand and like a responsible elder brother, gave that doll to her. 


The sister was very very happy. The shopkeeper was watching everything and getting amused to see the matured behaviour of the boy. 


Then the boy came to the counter and asked the shopkeeper, "What is the cost of this doll Sir?" 


The shopkeeper was a kind man and had experienced the odds of life. 


So he asked the boy with a lot of love and affection, “Well, what can you pay?" 


The boy took out shells that he had collected from sea shore, from his pocket and gave them to the shopkeeper. 


The shopkeeper took the shells and started counting as if he were counting the currency. 


Then he looked at the boy. The boy asked him worriedly, "Is it too little Sir?" 


The shopkeeper said, "No, no... these are more than the cost. So I will return the remaining. 


Saying so, he kept only 4 shells and returned the remaining. 


The boy, very happily put the shells back in his pocket and left with his sister. 


An employee was very surprised watching all this. He asked the shopkeeper, "Sir, you gave away such a costly doll just for 4 shells?" 


The shopkeeper said with a smile, "Well, for us these are mere shells, but for that boy, these shells are very precious. 


And at this age he does not understand what money is, but when he grows up, he definitely will. 


And then he would remember that he purchased a doll with shells instead of money, and he will remember me and think that world is still full of good and kind people.."

DESTINY.

A man asked Narada Muni how much money is in my destiny? 


Narad Muni said- I will ask Lord Vishnu and tell you tomorrow. The next day Narada Muni said- 1 rupee is in your destiny every day. 


The man started living very happily, his needs were fulfilled in 1 rupee. 


One day his friend said, I am very impressed by your simple life and happiness and I want to marry my sister to you. 


The man said, I earn Re. 1 per day, keep this in mind. Your sister will have to survive on this. 


The friend said, no problem, I accept the relationship. From the next day, the man's income increased to 11 rupees. 


He asked Narada Muni, "O Munivar, 1 rupee is written in my fate, then why am I getting 11 rupees?" 


Narada Muni said, "You are getting these 10 rupees from your wife’s destiny. Start saving it. It will be useful in your life“. Narada Ji replied. 


One day his wife got pregnant and his income increased to 31 rupees. Then he asked Narada Muni, “Munivar, my wife and I were getting 11 rupees as destiny but why am I getting 31 rupees now?”


Munivar said, you are getting 20 rupees as destiny from your child. Every person gets his destiny. We do not know whose destiny brings wealth to the house. 


But man is arrogant that I made it, I earned it, it is mine, it is my hard work, I am earning, it is happening because of me. 


But in reality no one knows whose destiny we are eating, so one should never be arrogant about one's achievements.

THE COW !!

A 99-year-old man was laying quietly. He was dying. 


The nurses had gathered around his bed, placing garlands around him and trying to make his last journey comfortable. 


They wanted to give him warm milk to drink but he declined. One of the nurses took the glass back to the kitchen. 


Then, she remembered a bottle of Whiskey that had been received as a gift. 


She opened it and poured a generous amount into the warm milk. 


Back at man’s bed, they lifted his head gently and held the glass to his lips. 


The old man drank a little, then a little more and in no time he had finished the whole glass down to the last drop. 


As his eyes brightened, the nurses thought it would be a good opportunity to have one last talk with the old man. 


"Father”, the nurses asked earnestly, "Please give us some of your wisdom before you leave us". 


He raised himself up very slowly in the bed on one elbow, looked at them and said: "DON'T SELL THAT COW."

JUDGEMENT !!!

A man finds a wallet with Rs.7000 in it. 


A few days later, he reads a notice stating that a wealthy man has lost his wallet and is offering a Rs.500 reward to anyone who returns it. 


He soon locates the owner and gives him the wallet, and the rich man counts the money and says, “I see you have already taken your reward.” 


The poor man responds, “What are you talking about?” 


The wealthy man continues, “This wallet had Rs.7500 in it when I lost it.” 


The poor man replied “I am sorry sir but when I found it up it only had Rs.7,000” 


The two men began arguing, and eventually they end up in court to sort out their differences. 


Both men present their case, the poor man first, then the wealthy man who concludes by saying, “Your Honor, I trust you believe me.” 


The Judge says, “Of course.” The rich man smiles, and the poor man is devastated. 


Then the Judge takes the wallet out of the wealthy man’s hands and gives it to the poor man who found it. 


“What are you doing?” the rich man yells angrily. 


The Judge responds, “You are an honest man, and if you say that your missing wallet had Rs.7500 in it, I’m sure I believe it. But if the man who found this wallet is a liar and a thief, he wouldn’t have returned it at all. That means this wallet must belong to somebody else. If that man comes forward, he’ll get the money – otherwise, it stays with the man who found it.” 


“What about my money?” the rich man asks. “Well, we’ll just have to wait until somebody finds your wallet with the Rs.7500 in it.
