Makar Sankranti refers
to the apparent northerly movement of the Sun. This is caused by the movement
of the earth around the sun. It signals the start of a very auspicious time
that lasts for approximately six months.
The earth and
everything on it is always moving. As you read this the earth is rotating
causing day and night. It is also orbiting around the sun. On the earth the
continents move at the speed at which your fingernails grow. The tiny particles
that make solid objects are also not static. All of creation is constantly on
the move.
The activity of the
creation is very attractive to us. Everyone wants to know what is going on.
What is the latest score in the cricket or football match? Did you see that
post on Facebook? Did you see the movie with Shahrukh Khan? Did you hear the
price of food went up?
We have to learn from
the sun. The sun has self-discipline. The sun always performs its duty and does
not get caught up in the constant movement around it. What will happen if the
sun stops shining and starts to do other things? In the same manner we also have our duty to
perform. When we are in a class we have to pay attention to the teacher and do
our work. Do not get distracted by the others around you. Perform your duty.
You will get happiness
when you perform your duty. Whatever is your duty in this world, whether you
are a student, teacher or prime minister once you work sincerely and honestly
you will be happy. This is a secret about life. When you do the right things
you are rewarded with happiness. This happiness is a message from Bhagwaan
(God) that you are on the right path.
Do not worry about
others who are not doing the right things. You do the right thing and make yourself
happy. In this way you will make the world a better place.
