[GHHF] Bala Samskar Students learned a moral story to control desires and stay away with bad people.
“Peace in the world depends on peace in the hearts of individuals; this depends on each of us practicing ethics by disciplining our negative thoughts and emotions and developing basic spiritual qualities.” Dalai Lama
Global Hindu Heritage Foundation started Bala Samskar Kendras to teach about the depth our culture and inspire them by teaching about the importance of morals and ethics, and great sacrifices our national heroes made to protect Sanatana Dharma.
In this class we are talking about a moral story for students to learn and follow. Vikram and his friends are studying together in a school in a village. But Vikram is a very good person, and he does not have any bad habits.
One day Vikram went with his friends to buy play toys. Vikram's friends all bought dolls there, but Vikram had no money. What did he not buy? But let's go back and thought, Vikram has not lost hope on his favorite toy, how can he I think I should get the doll.
Meanwhile, one of Vikram's friends asks him to steal his favorite toy, I agree with it. Let's help. But Vikram first refused out of fear, but because of his lust for the doll, he said, Will decide. At last Vikram returns very happy after getting the doll. But the fear of being stolen did not go away.
After two days, it became known at home that Vikram had stolen the doll. Vikram's father's friends asked Vikram a question. Vikram scolded his friends out of fear and anger. They want to steal from me. He told his father that he was encouraged.
This is what Vikram's mother says from the kitchen, Babu!! Let me tell you one! “No matter how much wealth, properties, luxuries and facilities one finds in the world, man's hope is never satisfied. That's why, Understanding the true causes of suffering, the wise should leave them behind. The words spoken by Lord Krishna to Arjuna through this work done by you Remembered. That's what I tell you...
Dhyayato vishyayan pumsah sangasteshupajayate .
Sangat sanjayate kamah kamat krodhobhijayate .

But, if those wishes are not fulfilled, we feel angry or disappointed. Therefore, what things do we Most of all we keep in mind to observe carefully. good things, high goals If we concentrate, our mind will remain calm, and we will achieve great things.
After understanding Vikram's words, he returned the doll and said sorry to his father. Tell me when I will do such things, from then on I will be with good natured friends. Started making friends, he focused on studies to achieve his goal.
