A rich man meets Shri Ramakrishna Paramhansa

A rich man went to Shri Ramakrishna Paramhansa and said:
"I've heard that Godess Maha Kali herself comes to meet you." Shri Ramakrishna: "Yes, that is true."
"When does she come?" "That is not fixed.
Is there a particular time when the God & the saints pay a visit? They come at their own goodwill."
"I want that you should help me a little. Whenever the Godess Maha Kali comes at your place next time do send her to my house also."
This person appeared very clever to Shri Ramakrishna therefore He said:
"That's OK! But you give me your address."
The richman wrote his address on a piece of paper & gave it to Shri Ramakrishna.
Then Shri Ramakrishna said: "Is this your address?" "Yes Sir! This is definitely my address."
"No, this is the address of your body. I can send the Mother (Godess) only if you give me your address."
"My address! The rich person was bewildered." Shri Ramakrishna smiling said:
"How can a person invite the Mother (Godess) without knowing his own address?" The rich person stepped back silently & went away.

Forget the things that made u sad........

and remember those that made you glad.

Forget the troubles that passed away.....

and remember the blessings that come each day.....

The Cracked Pot

There was a farmer who owned two pots which he used to fill with water every evening from the river side and bring back home for daily usage.However, one of the pots was slighty cracked due to which by the time the farmer used to reach home, half of the pot got emptied.

The pot always felt ashamed for its shortcoming and regretted why the farmer had not thrown him away.One fine day, the pot managed to ask whether the farmer has ever noticed that it is cracked and half of the water and his valuable energy gets wasted everyday.

The farmer took the pot on the way to riverside and told the pot-- see the flowerbed , i knew that you are cracked so I had sown the seeds which have turned into beautiful flowers because of the watering done by you.
