My Reflections , My insights

  Big and Small   Ramayana Stories have such deep insight, sharing one of the insights below. From the incident, the Monkeys were making the bridge over sea to go to Lanka to fight with Ravana. Rama asked his army to build the bridge over the sea. Monkeys pulled the rocks and stones from mountains and started making the bridge. It was a tedious and challenging task; thousands of monkeys were on the job. Rama was blissful seeing the effort and love for him which made them do this.                One day Rama saw little Squirrel carrying small pebbles in her mouth and dropping it onto the sea. As Monkeys were holding big stones, little Squirrel was dragging small pebbles and dropping them onto the sea, little Squirrel was coming in between the path, and monkeys had to take care so that they didn’t step on the little Squirrel. One of Monkey shouted in his booming voice,” hey little thing, you are coming o...

  "Potter Behind the Pot "   Good Morning Madam, all the Class Five students greeted   Mrs Thompson as she entered the class. Very Lovely morning to you all, She greeted them back. Although she gave a lovely morning wish, Teddy was one student she didn't like, as he was notorious , Shabby, not sincere and used to distract in her class.

  Mentoring  Mowgli – Baheera- Bhaloo (Earning your   Victories )   Lao Tzu said, "When the Student is ready teacher will appear and when Student is really ready teacher will disappear ".                 In our childhood and even now, we enjoy kids' movies and serials,   one the popular one was   Jungle book. Apart from protagonist   Mowgli, there were two more prominent characters Bagheera the Black Panther and Bhaloo . Bhaghira saved Mowgli from the clutches of The Sher Khan, and he was part of Mowglis' adventurous journey.

Both Bhagira and Bhaloo played a vital mentor rol...
