The shop keeper looked at the small cute child and showed him a bottle with sweets and said 'Dear Child..u can take the sweets... but the child didn't take.
The shop keeper was surprised.. such a small child he is and why is he not taking the sweets from the bottle. Again he said take the sweets.... now mother
also heard that and said.. beta take the sweets.. yet he didn't take...
.
The shopkeeper seeing the child not taking the sweets... he himself took the sweets and gave to the child...... the child was happy to get two hands
full of sweets ....
When returned to home Mother asked child...
Why didn't you take the sweets... when shop keeper told you to take...
.
Can you guess the response:
Child replies... Mom! my hands are very small and if I take the sweets I can only take few.. but now you see when uncle gave with his big hands....
how many more sweets I got!
Moral:
When we take we may get little but when God gives... HE gives us more beyond our expectations.... more than what we can hold......................
Life is to share. With the grace of the Guru, meditate and fill your life with light, love and laughter. Find fulfilment that you were useful to the world and to your Guru in a small way.

Story of Relativity
Einstein's Story of Relativity
The following is from Elsa Einstein, Albert Einstein's wife, regarding Einstein's development of the theory of general relativity. It's taken from the outstanding book Einstein and Religion by Max Jammer. It's originally taken from Charles Chaplin's autobiography.
The Doctor came down in his dressing gown as usual for breakfast but he hardly touched a thing. I thought something was wrong, so I asked what was troubling him. "Darling," he said, "I have a wonderful idea." And after drinking his coffee, he went to the piano and started playing. Now and again he would stop, making a few notes then repeat: "I've got a wonderful idea, a marvelous idea!" I said: "Then for goodness' sake tell me what it is, don't keep me in suspense." He said: "It's difficult, I still have to work it out."
She told me he continued playing the piano and making notes for about half an hour, then went upstairs to his study, telling her that he did not wish to be disturbed, and remained there for two weeks. "Each day I sent him up his meals," she said, "and in the evening he would walk a little for exercise, then return to his work again. Eventually," she said, "he came down from his study looking very pale. "That's it," he told me, wearily putting two sheets of paper on the table. And that was his theory of relativity."

Friendly Crocodile
A Costa Rican man has made an unlikely friend in a 5 metre, 450 kilogram crocodile. Gilberto Graham has seemingly domesticated the massive crocodile, starting his own show in the Costa Rican city of Limon.
In the show Graham canvorts with the crocodile in the water and gives commands that the animal follows. When asked if he doesn't fear attack, Graham said that he trusts the animal. "I've tried it many different times. I've been with the animal and tested him to see if he would betray me. He may get a little mean when there are a lot of people watching and he feels pressure."
Graham found the reptile wounded by a bullet five years ago after it had been shot by a farmer who wanted to keep it from eating his cattle. Graham claimed that he cured and fed the crocodile. Little by little they got to know each other and Graham gained the animal's confidence.
