STORY-OF-THE-WEEK

A LESSON IN FRATERNITY

THERE are many incidents that throw light on fraternity in the Ramayana. Here is an incident. Once, as young lads, the four brothers were playing a game with a ball. After the game, Rama ran to Mother Kausalya and rested on her lap. He was full of joy; Kausalya asked him what had made him so happy. Rama said, “Mother, today Bharata won the game, and so I am very happy.” Kausalya was very much pleased with these words. Shortly Bharata ran to Kausalya with tears streaming down his cheeks. Kausalya asked him why he was sad instead of being happy. Bharata said, “Mother, when I was about to lose the game, Brother Rama managed to lose the game and made me the winner. I am unhappy because of the defeat of my elder brother.” What an example of fraternal love! The elder brother should see to the success of the younger one even by losing the game himself.

The Lesson of the Strainer: Why We Read

“Teacher, I’ve read so many books… but I’ve forgotten most of them. So what’s the point of reading?” That was the question of a curious student. The teacher didn’t answer. He just looked at him in silence. A few days later, they were sitting by a river. Out of nowhere, the old man said: “I’m thirsty. Bring me some water… but use that old strainer lying there on the ground.” The student looked confused. It was a ridiculous request. How could anyone bring water in a strainer full of holes? But he didn’t dare argue. He picked up the strainer and tried.

Once. Twice. Over and over again…

He ran faster, angled it differently, even tried covering holes with his fingers. Nothing worked. He couldn’t hold a single drop. Exhausted and frustrated, he dropped the strainer at the teacher’s feet and said: “I’m sorry. I failed. It was impossible.” The teacher looked at him kindly and said: “You didn’t fail. Look at the strainer.” The student glanced down… and noticed something. The old, dark, dirty strainer was now shining clean. The water, though it never stayed, had washed it over and over until it gleamed.

The teacher continued: “That’s what reading does. It doesn’t matter if you don’t remember every detail. It doesn’t matter if the knowledge seems to slip through, like water through a strainer…

Because while you read, your mind is refreshed. Your spirit is renewed. Your ideas are oxygenated. And even if you don’t notice it right away, you’re being transformed from the inside out.”

That’s the true purpose of reading. Not to fill your memory… but to cleanse and enrich your soul.
