Hope all are fine!
Abishek👦 and Rahul👦 studied in the same school. Abhisek was a bright student and always stood 1st in the class. Thus, he was blue-eyed student of his teachers as well.
The final exams for both of them were around the corner. Suddenly, Abhishek fell ill. He could not revise his lessons because of his illness. When the results declared, he secured 2nd position and Rahul was placed at the 1st position.
Abhishek, deep in his heart, blamed Rahul for his losing 1st position. He stopped talking to Rahul.
One day, Abhishek was returning home from his school. On the way he met a sage. He narrated his worry about his bad performance in the examination.
Abhishek asked the sage, “Baba, will I secure 1st position in 9th class or not?”
“It is difficult because of the impact of bad stars. But you don't worry. I will perform rituals and worship for you. All this will cost you 2000 rupees,” said the sage.
The sage asked Abhishek to return to him the next day.
The next day, Abhishek came to the sage. He gave him 2000 rupees. The sage gave him an auspicious stone and asked him to tie it around his neck all the time.
The annual examinations approached. And Abhishek had full faith in auspicious stone given by the sage. He did not prepare much for exams. When results were declared, he failed miserably.
Abhishek narrated everything about the auspicious stone and about the sage to his teacher.
“Abhiskeh, because of the superstition you did not work hard. The real key to success is only hard work,” the teacher explained to Abhishek.
Abhishek got the clear understanding. He started working hard again and he cleared the exams with flying colors. Once again Abhishek and Rahul became good friends.
See how superstition believes results.
If Abhishek did not believed the sage and if he worked hard and studied, he would have secured 1st place in the exam. Instead he belived what the sage told and got failed in the exam.
There are many people who are like Abhishek, believing superstitions and losing their lives.
Psychologist says that none of the superstitions believes are actually not true. For some people, following superstition believes decreases anxiety. But it never helps real life.
Kindly don't fall for superstition believes, hard work is only key to success. Hardworking never fails.
