Work is Worship
There lived a man
named Kranti who was well versed in making arrows. Whenever anybody saw his
arrows, he never became tired to appreciate him. Once he was busy in making
arrows. A procession of a rich person passed from there with lots of noise. He
was so busy that his mind didn't distract from his work and he kept making the
arrows. After sometime a saint passed from there. Till then Kranti had
completed his work. The saint asked him, “Had you seen the procession of a rich
man. How much time has passed after that procession?” Then Kranti said sorry to
the saint and said he was too busy in making arrows so he couldn't see the
procession. The saint replied that even if you were present, you didn't hear
the sound of clarinets and drums. Then the man replied, “My work is worship for
me. Whenever I do my work, I forget all things” These sentences made the saint
to touch the feet of Kranti. The saint observed and said, “I will also try to
do my work with full dedication.”
Moral:
One's work should be one's only worship.
