Peace of Mind

Today there was a lot of activity in the school because on the notice board the invitation to the students to go for a picnic was pasted. The students dressed in new clothes gathered in the school with an excited heart to have delicious food and sweets along the visit. At the right time, Guruji took students from the school. The bus left. 
Children were very happy on the way. They saw a lake of clean water and gardens. The bus passed over a bridge across the river. They saw at different spots people were  taking a boat ride in the river. The bus stopped under a huge beautiful temple of Lord Shiva. Children immediately alighted from the bus and went on climbing the stairs then returned after having darshan. After that, spreading a sheet in the shade of a huge banyan tree all had food. As soon as the meal was over, Guruji took the students to an ashram which was nearby. The students, seeing the clean place, sat to rest. Although they were a bit tired now, Guruji told the students to sit quietly as it was a Rishi's Ashram. He himself took a jug of water and started watering flowers and plants in the fencing of sage's ashram. He also cleaned the garbage of some dry leaves because being a disciple of guruji, he didn't want to miss any opportunity of serving him. After completing the service work, Guruji reached among the students. The students were busy with songs puzzles and other things in a low voice. 
Guruji received the information that the bus had broken down and the driver had crossed the river to get it fixed. By then clouds had gathered and light showers had started falling. Some students wanted to save their  new clothes from getting wet and dirty. Some students were worried about reaching home early. They all wanted the driver to bring the bus soon as possible, so they all were waiting eagerly. Uneasiness was clearly visible on their faces.
Guruji saw, a student is sitting very calm and happy, as if life is a celebration for him. Guruji called him near and asked the reason. The student touched Guruji's feet and said that you have brought us and you will only take us back safely. So there is no reason for all of us to worry at all.  Guruji could clearly notice the difference between that student and other students even in similar circumstances.
So friends, you saw that this difference was because that child had full faith in Guruji. So he had completely surrendered before him. That is why he was not worried or upset at all. The same way, If we have complete faith in God, then only we would surrender completely. God himself takes away our worries and troubles by this. And we can sleep peacefully. Whether we know it or not, it happens like this. You must have heard or read that "Baal na banka kari ske, jo jag beri hoy. The mind is a gift from God to fill it with divine thoughts. In return for this faith, devotion and total surrender, we are blessed with peace of mind which is otherwise extremely rare in human life. 
         When you have positive thinking then, 
         any voice becomes music
         move becomes dance
         smile turns to laughter
         mind becomes meditative
         *And life becomes a celebration! Believe in life, it starts humming like a spring.
