“We Are Miracles”* One and All – Step 1 begins

“Never expose yourself unnecessarily to danger; a miracle may not save you … and if it does, it will be deducted from your share of luck or merit.” – The Talmud (c. 500 CE) Judaism’s basic text

Today’s SFZ

MIRACLES ARE NOT MEANT TO BE ‘WASTED’ – “Sometimes giving up those outdated survival skills feels like giving up our best friend.” “We are completely aware that there’s no turning back because we can never forget the miracle that’s begun to happen to us.” (It Works, How & Why, p. 46)

The Magic Pot

Once upon a time a farmer, Gopi, lived in a village. He had a few acres of land. One hot afternoon, the poor farmer was digging his field. All of a sudden, his spade hit something. Then he continued his digging. “It is a big metal pot,” said Gopi. [It] was big enough to boil rice for more than a hundred people. “It does not seem to be of any use to me. I will dig deeper. Maybe I will find something else,” thought Gopi. He continued to dig.

After he had dug for a long time, Gopi felt tired. “It is of no use. There is nothing in this field” he thought. Then at once, he threw the spade into the pot in frustration and sat under a tree to take rest for a while.

After a while, when he got up to leave, he could not believe his eyes. There were one hundred spades in the pot. “This is a magical pot. I will put this mango inside the pot and see what happens,” Gopi thought. Then Gopi put a mango into the pot. To his astonishment, he found one hundred mangoes in the pot. Gopi carried the pot to his home and kept in a secret place so that no one would become aware of it.

After that, he put many things in that and everything became a hundred folds. With that pot, he became a rich man. The King came to know of the pot and its whereabouts. The King was curious to know about it and he was a greedy King. “I want to find out the secret of the magical pot. If it is valuable, it should be in the King treasury,” the King thought. Then at once, the King ordered his men to bring the farmer and his pot.

When the magic pot was brought to the King’s chamber, he did not know what to do. The King thought, “Let me see what is there inside this pot which makes this pot so magical?” He peered inside. Inadvertently, he slipped and fell inside the pot. When he climbed out of the magic pot, he was shocked to find that there were one hundred Kings.

All the kings then started to climb the throne. They fought among themselves and died. The magic pot lay in the King’s treasury. “The foolish King took away the magic pot from me out of curiosity and eventually he died. This magic pot has killed the King himself,” said the farmer and he to be safely left the magic pot at the treasury of the King itself.

    Good morning everyone + Happy Monday. Time to relax. Easter services are completed. Just taking it easy today. Here is today’s thought. When we let God’s spirit come into our lives, we learn how to get along with others + how to help them. We can do nothing of any value without God’s help. Blessings. BB

    Today I experienced the miracle of fellowship, good food and being of service. So many people came up to tell me how much they appreciated the speaker today at PSLA and our joint Pot Luck in the Park event. I was nearly magical to see so much harmony with 30 or so people of all ages enjoying each others company.
