OH LORD! SAVE MY PEOPLE’S LIFE!

A passenger ship was sailing on mighty water under coarse weather conditions. The captain on the board felt manoeuvring ship under such contingency situations is impossible with his ill-prepared crews. A group of passengers rushed towards the captain to know about frequent harsh wagging movement of ship, which made their travel inconvenient. The captain, in order to defuse the fear, replied calmly, “No problem with the situation, it rarely happens; we will take care of it!” But, sudden collapse of ship’s stability added passenger’s fear. Understanding the critical situation, the passengers begin to cry for help towards ubiquitous God. One man cried, “Oh God! Save me.” Another man exclaimed, “Oh God! Help your faithful devotee.” But, they couldn’t find any changes and they felt, they would get destroyed by the action of nature.

A young soldier was travelling in the ship; he was heavily wounded in countering enemies at frontlines in war field. Because of, improper treatment facilities, his health got deprived and became chronically ill. Understanding emergency situation in ship and critical necessity of guidance, the soldier prayed emotionally towards perverse God and died instantaneously. After his death, his deep empathic words created equilibrium in prevailing disturbing weather and ship regained its normal composure.

The people understanding soldier’s saving words and to pay obeisance to the departed soul, moved towards the soldier’s cabin. When a man asked about the powerful words he uttered to save their life, the neighbour of the soldier replied, “You didn’t observe his emotional enthusiasm, with which he articulated that powerful phrase: Oh Lord! Save my people’s life?”

LIGHT IT TURNS: What created revolution is not selfish thinking; it is soldier’s deep rooted holistic thinking. “Save me”, “Help your faithful devotee”, “Help me” didn’t attracted saviour’s guiding limb but “Save my people!” by a man even when life was at stake attracted god’s guidance. So, it provides a natural rule in life, riches or material quantities replenish itself, when intension is overall development of society. When self-gratification is the objective, the material quantity deplete with time.

Andrew Carnegie, a multi-millionaire during early 20th century explained rule with which he conquered indomitable accomplishment, “When I thought of creating number of my employees as millionaire, in that process, I became a billionaire.”
