Is Serendipity there in Your Life?




Why some people experience serendipity in their lives while majority of the others cannot do that? Is serendipity experience limited to a selected few? Why so? On what basis does one can experience serendipity?

 Serendipity is the fortunate occurrence of events by chance. Are these people the chosen ones? In this world, people who have experienced serendipity, in most of the cases, they become either uber rich or knowledgeable. All panegyric speeches in this world, in general, talk about rich, bold, and rectitude behaviors. If a person does good deeds in this birth, serendipity comes his way in future births to make his life easy; this is the way most of the eastern countries think. Their religious philosophy also supports this saying.

If rectitude behavior is the key to experience serendipity, which in turn lot of pleasant surprises, then why in this world not many people are following that? Does this mean doing bad things give more pleasure than doing good? Or people cannot wait for such a long time to experience pleasant serendipity related surprises? Anyway, people have that pleasure seeking attitude and they do everything to experience them.

Happiness is the underlying reason why people pursue different tasks. From a mentally disabled person, who maunders to himself, to a noveau riche, who squanders his wealth with incivility, everyone pursues happiness. Happiness pursuing is there in spiritual angle also; take the case of a saint who scampers every day morning to take bath and worship his lord is nothing but a case of pursuing happiness. However, all these happiness pursuing events are part of serendipity in everyone’s life.

In summary, serendipity is there in all of our lives. However, the quality and quantity of that pleasantness is little for a few and medium or huge for some others. The reason for this variance lies in our good deeds done in our previous births; as per eastern philosophy. 

How to Spend Your Riches?




What is the point of being rich if you cannot spend a single penny either for yourself or needy people around you? If you think, you are saving money, then it can be taken as noting but a ridiculous statement. We are all here on this planet as visitors. However, when we started our journey on this planet, the Supreme Power, whom we believe that has sent us here, has given some of us good health, fame, money, etc, along with different talents and skills. Besides, everyone is given something intangible thing called LUCK. Although its percentage is very little in any one of our case, but it rules a significant part of our life.

Incredulously, when we leave this planet, we can’t and won’t take anything along with us. All those panegyric speeches, parsimonious behaviors, incivility attitude, etc, we leave here.  Saints, who roamed around this planet long time ago, told us in their maundering that we all have to focus on HIM; not on the goods that he has given us.

Serendipity is something initiated by Supreme Power in the lives of a few, who has done good deeds in their previous births. During this good period, if we do bad things to others, then again the same Supreme Power punishes us by filling our lives with poorness and dumbness. All of us, most of the times, scamper our way to God, every day morning, and request HIM ‘N’ number of wishes. We promise that we don’t do bad things but never try to implement that rectitude behavior in real-time.

We all need to realize that the day we start doing bad things in life and get benefits from them, we are travelling on a scarp with NO RETURN ticket. By the time people realize this, they might have traveled several miles on that scarp and now, it is not possible for them to return to pious life.

The lifestyle followed by noveau riche is one example to support the above statement. As long as they lay their hands on wealth, they spend it on different not useful activities. Once the coffers are empty, only then they remember who they are and what they can do on this planet.

In summary, as long as you are in possession of money and skill, try to be useful to those needy others around you by adding value to whatever they do.

Good luck!
