A guru from Gorakhpur came to Hyderabad. He had great brightness on his face and his mission was to help people to bring out the great potential within themselves. He was spreading love all around. The guru was a master of the Gita, Upanishads, Bible, Quran, Ashtavakra Gita and many other sources of wisdom.
He also used to do a trick to attract people, which then he would slowly reveal. The trick was done whenever anyone came to see him with something in their hands. Many people would come to him with the flowers, fruits, paper, coin or some other things in their closed palm and Guru would reveal the hidden thing instantly.
Ganesh was a young manager and was very clever. He heard about the Guru and thought he could outsmart him. Ganesh placed a bet of 100 Rs. with his friends, Dr. Praveen and Raghavan that the guru would not be able to tell what was in his hand?
Next morning Ganesh put a little sparrow in his closed palm and went to see the Guru and said," Namaste" The guru smiled. Ganesh said," Guruji! Can you tell me what is in my hands?" Guruji said, Son, there is a sparrow in your hands." Ganesh half-smiled and said," Can you tell me whether the sparrow is alive or dead?" Ganesh was alert and was ready to crush the sparrow if Guru said it was alive. On the other hand if the guru said it was dead, he was prepared to open the palm without harming sparrow. In both ways he would prove the Guru wrong!
Guru smiled with compassion and said," My dear son! The life of the sparrow is in your hands."!
The Future is in your Hands.
You Can Make it or break it now
Present is the base for the better future.
