LAY PEOPLE CHARACTER IS MORE GREATER THAN MANY SANYASINby Chennai based K.B.Gopalakrishnan 27th November, 2007 12:00pm It is very true. I use consider myself as special and behave in pompous manner with people. Slowly when I started practicing conduct or virtues practice I was in for a shock. Some of the people whom I have met had better humility, better kindness and verbal sincerity than what I have. This is true for many sanyasin.
I met my friend Bipin Vyas. His devotion towards his teacher, fire yogi is amazing. He will spend lot of money to come to India just to meet his guru. Many people will go to different places to drink dance and have a good time. He is also very humble for his success. I found many so called spiritual people sanyasin do not measure half to his devotion to guru. Many of them speak ill of their guru, fight with them and make it an ugly parting.
I have friends by name Mrs. Jayashree Ramalingam and Mr. Vijay. I do not have half the devotion for my guru which they have for their guru. When their teacher says something they follow implicitly, they implement and because of their faith they see the results. I have met people whose honesty in poverty is amazing. I have been seeing parents who are very loving towards the children in spite of there rude behavior and verbal abuse. The love of mother is amazing which will equal some of the bodhisattvas. I heard this story from my mother’s office. An ayah was working in her hospital. She was regularly beaten and abused by her son. One day her son died. Many people told her that she should be happy for he is dead. She cried and replied “I have just a son. One day I believed that he will become ok. Even if he has beaten me I just love him for what he is”.
I have friend by name k. If I was his parent I would definitely kicked him out of the house. His parents are living saints. He had a friend who was a crook. He talked big things like going abroad and making big in life. My friend k believed it. The fellow use to borrow money from k and gave false cheque to the ashram which they visit. Situation reached a point were the fellow ran off and the ashram authorities got very upset because of the bounced cheque. His parents pulled out from their savings and gave the money. He had love marriage for which they gave house, money, TV etc. he divorced his wife. They have to face social humiliation for which they were not responsible. There are sanyasin who take favor and do not even thank the person. They in fact talk rubbish in some one back. I know a sanyasin who talks regularly ill of me even when I send clients to him. He will say to those people not to trust me etc. I was amazed at their hypocrisy. When they meet they are all honey and behind there back they are chutes. I saw in TV of a dog who laid down his life for his master. His loyalty on love is greater than human love. Some times animals have better sense than human beings who tend to run the fastest way in need.
