The Silent Disciples

Four disciples were asked by their Master to stay in silence. So they were watching the sunset, without uttering a word. A passer-by stopped and asked them the time. The first one answered, “I’m sorry, I am in silence”. The second remarked, “Oh! But you just spoke..!”. Then the third one said, “Both of you have broken your silence, I will tell the Master.” And then the fourth concluded with an air of superiority, “I am the only one who managed to remain silent!” 

Everyone is making mistakes, but judging others for their mistakes instead of focusing on correcting their own errors. Are we also doing this? Remember, when we judge others for their mistakes, deep down we are also doing the same mistake. Be aware!

  2. प्रभु आपकी दया दृष्टि के बाद, दूसरों के दोष न दिखकर स्वयं के दोष पहले दिख जाते हैं। अहो उपकार श्री गुरु माँ!

  3. सही बात है प्रभु… दूसरो में दोष देखने में अपना दोष हो रहा है यह आभास नहीं होता है ………..
    बस एक गुरु के सानिध्य में ही उस दोश से बचा जा सकता है
    धन्यवाद गुरु परमात्मा 🙏
