Welcome back guys to my new blog. I hope you all are doing great and having good health. As you have seen todays topic above. So lets Start….

Once Buddha was going somewhere with his disciples. On the way, he saw that a young man was going towards the hill with a lot of passion. Buddha understood on seeing him that either he was going to kill someone or he was going to commit suicide himself. Buddha called the young man. But the young man did not hear anything. He reached a high hill where he was about to jump off the hill. Then Buddha grabbed her by the hand and pulled her back.

Seeing Buddha in front, the young man said,

"You don't stop me. this is my life. There is no need for you to interfere in this."

Buddha smiled and said,

"Okay if you want to commit suicide then do it. But wait a bit first. Take ten deep breaths and open your palms and then I will let you commit suicide. But not before that."

The young man said,

"You are troubling me in vain. I am already very upset. You don't bother me. Well you say, then I take ten deep breaths and open my palms. After that you will not stop me from committing suicide."

The young man took ten deep breaths with his eyes closed, he opened his palms and after that he opened his eyes.

Then Buddha said,

"Go and jump off the hill."

The young man went fast towards the hill and got ready to jump. But he stopped and looked down. He took two or three steps back.

The young man turned to Buddha and looking at him said,

“Who are you, Mahatma? I have never seen a brighter person than you. What happened to me can you explain to me? Had you not stopped me a few moments ago, I would have jumped off this hill. But now I am unable to jump off this hill. There has been a lot of fear.”

Buddha smiled and said,

“When you were about to jump for the first time, there was anger in you. Anger destroys the intellect of man. And he loses the ability to think. That cable wants to do what its mind tells it to do. There was anger in you and your mind was ready for suicide that is why you were ready to jump off the hill. But when you closed your eyes, took a deep breath and opened your palms, the negative energy of your anger turned into a positive energy. Due to which your intellect was controlled and you were able to take the right decision.

The young man said,

"Who are you Mahatma? You didn't introduce yourself."

Buddha smiled and said,

"This world calls me Buddha."

The young man fell at the feet of Buddha and said,

"O Buddha, take me under your shelter. I was going to commit suicide because I wanted to teach my father a lesson.

Buddha said,

“One cannot teach a lesson to anyone by committing suicide. With this body we can do anything in this world. But if this body is not there then we cannot do anything.”

the young man said, 

What he said, I'll tell in in 2nd part of my blog.

THANKYOU!!
