Heaven and Hell .. Moral Story

Once a group of people wanted to know what makes for hell and what makes heaven. Where all suffer is called hell, and where all enjoy is called heaven. So the committee of the above persons wanting to know how hell is made, first went to the hell where all people were suffering. What they saw in hell surprised them very much because hell looked a very rich place where every enjoyable object was available in plenty. Why should any one suffer here, they wondered.

 As it was the lunch time in hell, all residents of hell were in the dining hall and the committee went to investigate whether there was any food problem. Again what met their eyes surprised them beyond words because the dining table was full with a variety of delicious dishes in abundance and no one need starve for lack of food. Yet the most puzzling thing of all was the fact that all the hell-residents who were gathered they all looked extremely hungry and angry. They were quarrelling and shouting at one another blaming one another in abuse language.

 The members of the investigation committee closely inspected the people who were thus quarrelling and fighting. They found that the persons in hell had no elbow joints in their arms because of which they were unable to bend their hands and feed themselves, though food was plenty available. So all of them starved and had no joy.

 The committee felt that it was cruel joke to play upon people. Why give them plenty of food if it was not meant to feed themselves?

Now, They wished to see how things were in heaven and went there in time to see the heavenly beings at lunch. The heaven was exactly like hell... looked very rich with all enjoyable things of life. As they approached the dining hall they could hear the loud thundering of satisfaction and joy of flow from the hall. The committee members hurried to the hall to witness such an excitement of joy. The dining table was full with delicious food just as in hell. The people looked happy, well-fed and contented and they were still eating. Now the committee members watched carefully how their arms were. Here too the arms of the heaven-residents were without elbow joints. They too could not bend their forearms to feed themselves. Still they were not unhappy. They understood that the plenty of food in front of them was not given to them to feed themselves but was meant for serving others. So they all collected enough food from the table and fed each others. When each one fed the others, all of them got plenty to eat and nobody were hunger. All were happy and it became HEAVEN. In the other place they did not know that the hands were given to serve others. When they tried to serve themselves they could not, and it became hell.


HAPPINESS:
Once a group of 500 people were attending a seminar. Suddenly the speaker stopped and decided to do a group activity. He started giving each person a balloon. Each person was then asked to write their name on it using a marker pen. Then all the balloons were collected and put in another room.

 The people were then let into that room and asked to find the balloon which had their name written on it within 5 minutes. Everyone was frantically searching for their name, colliding with each other, pushing around others and there was utter chaos.

 At the end of 5 minutes no one could find their own balloon.
 Then, the speaker asked each person to randomly collect a balloon and give it to the person whose name was written on it. Within minutes everyone had their own balloon.

 The speaker then began, "This is happening in our lives. Everyone is frantically looking for happiness all around, not knowing where it is.

 Our happiness lies in the happiness of other people. Give them their happiness; you will get your own happiness. And this is the purpose of human life...the pursuit of happiness."
