Once, Lord Indra got upset with Farmers and he announced there will be no rain for 12 years and farmers would not be able to produce crops.
Farmers begged for clemency from Lord Indra , who then said: Rain will be possible only if Lord Shiva plays his Damru. But he secretly requested Lord Shiva not to agree to the Farmers request. When Farmers reached Lord Shiva he informed them that he would play Damru only after 12 years.
Disappointed Farmers decided to wait for 12 years.
But one Farmer was regularly digging, treating & kept the soil well manured. He kept sowing the seeds even though there was no crop. Other Farmers made fun of him . After 3 years all Farmers asked him that why was he wasting his time and energy when he knew that it would not rain for 12 years.
He replied “I know that crop won’t grow but I’m doing it as a matter of “practice”. After 12 years I will forget the process of growing crops and working in the field so I must keep doing it so that I’m fit to produce the crop the moment it rains after 12 years.”
Hearing his argument Goddess Parvati praised his version before Lord Shiva & said “You may also forget playing the Damru after 12 years!”
The all forgiving Bholenath tried to play the Damru. Hearing the sound of Damru immediately there was rain and the farmer who was regularly working in the field got his crop, while others were disappointed.
It is the practice which keeps on making you perfect. If we don't practice we can only get lazy, even diseased or old. Practice is an essential quality of survival.
So, let there be lockdown. Whatever trade or profession we are in, keep sharpening the skills, practice with what you have, upgrade your knowledge. Don’t wait for rain, that is the lockdown to be lifted and then start something. Focus on your skills today, upskill your self so that you are ready to meet the challenges.! Love, light & Peace ✨🌈👁🌅🍃🔱🌀🌷📿🔆💙🕉💀🌙⏳🐍🐚🌸🔔🙏🎨💟✨🌈💙🌅
