King of
heaven (Indra) once became very conceited of his powers and wealth.
One saint approached
him and showed him a line of ants busy in collecting food.
He told him, "Look
at these ants! Each ant from this line has enjoyed your realm in
capacity of your position for INFINITE times."
Indra asked him what he
should be doing to avoid reaching that state.
Saint replied, "There
is only one life, and that is of human life, in which you get chance
to bring and end to this cycle. Although you are king of heaven, it
is only when you'll get birth as human, you can do something about
it."
So precious is human
life! And to meet a person who has divinity of God within him is so
much more precious!. Let us pray that God would put us in touch with
such person.
