அனக சத்சங்கம்

Student: Master, people say that expressing gratitude is good for my peace of mind. I have so many problems, that I cannot find anything to be grateful for. What do I do?

Master: Let me tell you a story. Once on a tree, there sat a small bird. There was a hunter aiming to shoot the bird, and a snake was perched on a branch above the bird waiting to eat it. The poor bird had no clue about it!

Master: The hunter aimed his arrow at the bird and just as he was about to shoot, an ant bit him and the arrow went and h it the snake and killed it.

Master: The bird oblivious to what just happened flew away. It had no clue about how lucky it was. Now tell me ..what did you learn from this

Student: Master, I can be grateful just for being alive! Not just that, I realise that I can be grateful for so many things which I take for granted. Thank you Master..!
