Once upon a time there was a young extremist fighting for Indian Independence, this revolutionary was in hit list of British. They had plans to arrest this man and always used to fail while implementing it. There was terror within British army and officers, as no one had guts to arrest this man, the reason of this terror was inbuilt fearlessness of this extremist. He was always ready to lose his life for mother nation’s Independence.
One fine day British army used trickery to catch this activist, and finally succeeded. In court of law run by British this extremist was given Capital punishment. It is heard even after hearing death sentence he had smile on his face thinking this as a small tribute to the nation.
On the penultimate day of punishment, this extremist was asked for his last wish; and the extremist replied that he wants to hear Bhagwat Gita. Jailor found out that father of this extremist is a priest and is known for reciting Gita, hence Jailor asked his father to come and read Gita for his extremist son.
When father met his son on the day of capital punishment, he saw that his son’s face is looking very pale. He was astonished and asked
Priest: I was not expecting this from you my Son; that fear of Death would make you pale and dull.
Extremist: it is not fear of death that made him look pale, in fact I saw a dream, which made him pale and dull.
Priest: What dream ???
Extremist: I saw a dream in which I stabbed mother to death. I am thinking how can I do such a nasty act even in my dream. You know I consider mother as deity.
Priest: What did you eat other day when you saw this dream?
Extremist: food that was provided by the jail as usual.
Hearing this; the Priest rushed to the Jailor and asked who cooked food two days back. Jailor replied the prisoner who makes it every day. Priest requested Jailor to find out exactly who cooked food.
When Jailor enquired about the same, he came to know the prisoner who cooks food everyday was not well, that is why some other prisoner cooked food other day.
Priest further asked Jailor what was the crime; that led this new cook become prisoner. Jailor replied the new cook killed his mother by stabbing a knife.
Life is all about thoughts….. When we eat food we do not know, who has made it, or from where it has come (point of origin). When we offer food to God, he takes away all bad thoughts and fills in purity to the food.
If one has good thoughts then surely he would win, good thoughts create strong will and good strong will changes lives.
Take example of any great saint or even Mahatama Gandhi, they used to offer food to God and then eat.
