The Leaking Bucket

*~The Leaking Bucket:*

*~* I wake up early morning trying to do my Pooja / Path/Yoga but my mind is elsewhere and before I know it, I have done with it without being mindful of it. (A leaking bucket)

*~* I am very kind to outsiders/people in general and speak with them gently but with my own family I am always harsh/rude. (A leaking bucket)

*~* I honour and treat my guests well but when they leave, I gossip about them and talk about their flaws. (A leaking bucket)

*~* I try to read as much religious books, listen to Satsang /Keertan, participate in social services/ Sewa but I swear,  insult, curse daily. (A leaking bucket)

*~* I help others but I am doing it to gain something in return from them and not doing those acts of kindness selflessly. (A leaking bucket)

*~* I frequently advice/preach others on religious matters but practice none myself.
(A leaking bucket)

*~* I slander other devout persons out of hatred/spite when my views do not meet one another. (A leaking bucket)

*~* I look down on others and feel more superior than them, judging their level of knowledge about religion based on external appearances (A leaking bucket)

*We struggle to fill our Jeevans (the bucket) with Kamaayi of religious knowledge (the water), hoping it will retain inside but it is leaked by the many flaws (the holes) that we commit daily.*

*An excellent reminder for all, to try and patch these holes up so we may progress further on this beautiful path of spiritual life.*
