Jai SriRam 🙏
Last month Kalpita and I were discussing different times of the day when we can say Nama in addition to the regular daily Sadhna. It was an innocuous conversation and in that spirit, I innocently said from tomorrow I will say Nama each time something positive or negative happens. Its been 2 weeks since then and it's been a transformational experience.
On the first day, I dutifully waited for something positive or negative to happen. Till lunch neither did and it slipped from my mind. At around 3 pm I bought two stocks on the stock exchange. Apparently margining rules had changed that very day and my broker apologised profusely and said that he had miscalculated - I would have to reverse the trades immediately. I was extremely upset but suddenly remembered I had to say Nama and started doing so immediately. Instead of losing my temper as I normally would - I remarked, "you didn't do this deliberately, see whatever best you can do - you should not be inconvenienced." Accordingly, he sold one stock and retained one stock.
Since then I have been saying Nama each time I get irritated or upset about something and also repeat Nama when anything good happens. This has resulted in:
1. Becoming more dispassionate when good happens and giving HIM credit for it
2. Reducing stress and anger when bad happens - because of that one ends up making better decisions
3. One becomes more detached because of the realisation that the only eventual outcome is NAMA - regardless of good or bad events occurring
4. WITH HIS INFINITE GRACE AND COMPASSION HE HELPS. In my example above - the shares my broker sold went down the next day and are still below the price I had initially purchased them. The shares he retained have since gone up. I can recount several examples like this over the last 15 days like this when HE HAS HELPED.
NITIN DADA's GRACE AND COMPASSION IS INDEED OMNIPRESENT, OMNISCIENT AND OMNIPOTENT.
Jai SriRam 🙏
