Akirathaghana - Ungrateful Ones



- the ones who do not know the art of receiving.


Whatever we are, what so ever we have, all the experiences good or bad we have and all beautiful scenic that we cherish is all given by god. He is the creator and destroyer of not just all bodies but also of whole nature.


However, all this does not come for free. you are asked to appreciate it. God asks us to chant his name , (in whatever form we do) to remember that he is the giver and thank him for all.


We do not do any favor by remembering him.This is where most of the devotees get stuck. You chant him and then start thinking that it's you who're doing god a favor. How foolish are we?


Relation with the almighty is a spiritual thing. There may be some who may not connect to it.


However, we all share same kind of relation with our parents. They feed us, take care of our needs and interests. They are always there for us. We think that all they did and are still doing is their duty, and that they would never ask anything in return of it.
That's not true!


They need us back when we are settled, and they want us to be with them, share our joyous moments with them. Sadly, this is the time when we realize that there is a generation gap between us, and they cannot understand us...



To some extent, this can be true. Nevertheless, this is the time we give back. Be with them. Either make them understand, or you understand them.


If you can't even make your parents happy, you are not worth this life.


dedicated to that pure almighty and to our lovely parents:

ਤੂ ਸਮਰਥੁ ਵਡਾ ਮੇਰੀ ਮਤਿ ਥੋਰੀ ਰਾਮ ॥
You are great and all-powerful; my understanding is so inadequate, O Lord.

ਪਾਲਹਿ ਅਕਿਰਤਘਨਾ ਪੂਰਨ ਦ੍ਰਿਸਟਿ ਤੇਰੀ ਰਾਮ ॥
You cherish even the ungrateful ones; Your Glance of Grace is perfect, Lord.
