Once a Crow holding on to a piece of meat was flying to a place to sit & eat.
However, a flock of Eagles were chasing it. The crow was anxious and was flying higher and higher, yet eagles were after the poor crow.
Just then “Garuda” saw the plight of the crow.
Coming closer to the crow, he asked:
“What’s wrong? You seem to be very “disturbed” and in “stress?”
The crow cried “Look at these eagles! They are after me to kill me”
Garuda being the bird of wisdom spoke “Oh my friend! They are not after you to kill you,
They are after that piece of meat that you are holding in your beak,
Just drop it and see what will happen.”
The crow followed the instructions of Garuda and dropped the piece of meat, and there you go, all the eagles flew towards the falling meat.
Garuda smiled and said “The Pain is only till you hold on to it!”
Just Drop it!
The crow just bowed and said “I dropped this piece of meat, and now, I can fly even higher.”
It is the same with us in our lives,
We carry the huge burden called Ego, expectations, comparisons, conceit, revenge, and so many other things which creates a false identity that we create for ourselves which leads to pain and stress.
Just Drop it!
Let’s be grateful with what we have,
Comparisons, negative emotions, will not take us anywhere,
just drop the burden & Stay blessed forever.
