8 - REFLECTION INSIDE FOR A BETTER LIFE.

The UNDERTAKER (The King ) And THE WORLD OF BUSINESS

THE FALCON AND THE PIGEON

There was a very righteous king. It was said that it was the king of the land fairer . One day , a pigeon came to break upon his thigh , asking him protection. The king assured him that he would have .

Instantly, a lean hawk landed i n a nearby branch and said to the king :

- This pigeon belongs to me . Give it to me

- No - said the king .

Watched his hawk:

- All land just say that you are the only one to deserve the name of fair. So why you options to justice? This pigeon must soothe the anguish of my hunge . Hands it to me.

The king looked down at the bird , who seemed terrified , and said to hawk:

- See how trembles. He entrusted me with their existence, I can not abandon it .

- Is all the food that endures - Hawk said .

- Without food there is no life. Since the beginning of time and the regular succession of things, this pigeon was intended to be my food today. I hand it to me.

- My word - said the king - is stronger than fate.

- STRONGER THAN DARMA ? ( 1 ) questioned the hawk.

- Certainly - the king replied.

The hawk seemed weakened:

Without food – said – I will cease to live. I and my wife and my son will perish: several lives by a single life. I tell you that virtue which destroys the virtue is a false virtue; a cruel virtue. The true virtue overlaps necessarily to contradictions. Weigh the pros and cons and decide what is fair. A virtue that doesn't decide it is not virtue.

The king, who listened carefully to what the bird said , replied:

What you say is full of sense. But, how can you find a good deed abandonment of a living being , who needs help ? You can eat anything , a bull , a boar , a gazelle!

Hawk replied:

- The Hawks do not eat wild boar . The hawks eat pigeons . It is an eternal law; is the dharma ( 1 ) falcons.

- I give you what you want ! - Cried the king.
Will bring you a whole steer! I give you all my sheep, my whole Kingdom! But, I'm not giving you this pigeon.

Upon reflection , the hawk said:

- Only accept one thing.

- Tell me .

- If you have so much love for this bird, cut a piece of flesh of your right thigh , the same weight of the bird, and gives to me.

Bring me a twin-Pan balance! - The king .

Brought a twin-pan balance. The trembling pigeon was placed over one of the dishes. The king took a sharp blad , cut a piece of his flesh and put it in the other dish.

However, the weight of the meat bird exceeded . The king cut another piece of thigh and threw the balance, which is not mexeu.Cortou another piece and another still . But the pigeon was ALWAYS HEAVIER THAN HIS FLESH .

The king cut the other thigh . Cut the arms , the chest ; cut all their flesh . At the end , it was just a bloody skeleton, but he himself went into the dish . And the balance lay still.

The body of the pigeon was ALWAYS HEAVIER than the king.

So hawk said:

PIGEON AND I CAME HERE TO KNOW YOU. SAY JUST BE MORE MEN.

And the two birds flying up together and gone.

The Mahabharata Book

Hinduism: Dharma: Synthetic Concepts.
The word Dharma, when started with a capital letter, simply means "teachings". The second meaning is usually associated with the use lowercase, dharma letters used to designate "the way things are."

The dharma is infinite ( is the sound of God ) , goes beyond the material and spiritual worlds and could be thought of as a mental sense according to the Vedic teachings .

The word dharma could be well used to say " good sense" as the word dharma could mean " a bad sense." Dharma is the universal permanent truth , including the laws of nature and the nature of God's laws .
