Whose Fault?
It is a nearby village. There was a rich man. He is a great devotee of GOD. Everyday he was doing pooja and then leaving the house. At the start of any work, he used to take the name of GOD and pray to him that success will be of his.
It went for many years. GOD has showered him with all the fame. So, rich man got a feeling that he is one of the great devotee of GOD. Thats why he arranged for a big homa and called everyone to attend. So, the d-day came.
On the day, Everyone who got the invitation and also those who didnt get the invitation had come. The homa went on smoothly. At the final stage, it is the time for prasadam distribution. So, a servant of rich man came with prasadam and started distributing it.
As he was giving , because there were many people gathered in the venue, carrying the prasadam he stumbled and fell down. All the prasadam were on floor now. Seeing this, rich man was very angry. The reason for his angryness is that prasadam were all on floor. And it is believed that one can not give that type of prasadam to devotees.
Rich man started scolding servant for his irresponsibility. Servant begged pardon for what had happened. But rich man was not ready to listen. He went on scolding servant. Servant started weeping. Rich man thretened that he will suspend servant from work for his fault.
An elderly man was seeing all these. Then he said "You have done a nice ritual of GOD. But the servant eventhough he had made a mistake , he asked for forgiveness. But you are not ready to pardon him. GOD doesnt like this type of ritual"
Hearing this, rich man understood the truth behind the words. He felt sorry for his words. And he told servant that everything is all right.
MORAL : Pardoning is the great character.
