Sri Karmayogi says every act, article, object, material, word, has “Jeevan”-and they remember everything we do to them-and give appropriate response in appropriate time. Recently I got one such experience. Few years back one of my friends- who is resident of a town Thirupur-which is 300 KM way from Chennai –planned to open call centre for some service provider –but for some reason dropped the plan. The place for the call centre was booked long before that and it was lying idle for about eight months. As he asked another friend-in Chennai- to look after the place once in a while –the Chennai friend asked his office-maid to visit that place-which is about two KM from his office- once or twice a week and clean it-and paid telephone electricity bills etc. After some time my Thirupur friend vacated the place-as he felt the outsourcing business would no more be feasible. Now-after a year or so-when the Chennai friend needed an office for his new venture-and we both went looking for one.
We had a shock of the lifetime when the broker took us to the same office space which my Chennai friend looked after once-at much cheaper rentals than he expected. The following incident happened last week, is one more proof that every act has jeevan and waits for the right atmosphere to respond.
I came to know about Mother as a force and about laws of life to make it respond only in January 2006. Since then I was experimenting with many laws as token act and virtually and proudly I can say now it is “rags to riches story”.
My first experiment was in big car manufacturing project –in 2006-where I followed the principle as token act: “Importance of the Infinitesimal – Perfection in detail. An act is accomplished when the mental idea moves to the body’s sensation via vital emotions. All the mental ideas must be rational in the context of the act, the vital enthusiasm should sufficiently energize the idea and the physical sensation of the physical skills exercised must be perfect”.
I was working as a manager in a small-time facility management firm, and I understood this statement to my level as- exhaust all your capacity physically, vitally and mentally. So, I learned to do the job by physically getting into field, showed as much interest as possible to get perfection- nearer to the manufacturer’s specification, and knowing all technicalities of the product by browsing the net throughout the project period-though it is not warranted for my designation, thereby acquiring all knowledge required for that as well generally for the field. In spite of all my efforts –the project was a failure and we came out with loss-as the car project was a nonstarter.
Incidentally when I got a call from a Korean car manufacturer in Aug 2007 I thought that, the life is responding to my previous efforts. Both these happened when I was working as manager in another company. I have forgotten this with that.
In Aug 2008 I resigned from that company and started my own company. Now the German car manufacturing company is revived and started their production and called me for a maintenance work. When I went there, they showed me the area – the same area which I showed attention in 2006. By all logic and procedures, actually my previous company has to get this call. But they called me by mistake and as they are much satisfied with the quality of the work, now they have entrusted the major maintenance work to us which is usually outsourced to a big civil contractor or to an international facility management company.
So every act waits –even for years-and when right atmosphere comes it responds.
Domestic Harmony
A question by a deveotee on domestic harmony – that leads to exploitation. As said in my previous mail, you are taking submission as harmony.
