Swami Vivekananda's Short Story Will Inspire You To Understand The Meaning Of True Worth
Swami Vivekananda always condemned weakness in any form. A short story narrated by the Swami on the true worth of things-which we normally think as 'all good things 'conveys the truth. This year, 12 January will mark his 157th birth anniversary.
An astrologer once approached the king and predicted that he would die in six months. The king's fear knew no bounds. However, the minister tried to comfort the king by saying the words of such people ought not to be taken seriously. The fright of the king, however, weighed down the words of the minister.
The minister then sent word to the astrologer, who appeared in the court of the king once again. The minister asked the astrologer if his prediction was true. The astrologer vouched that his calculations were accurate. This unnerved the king even more.
The
minister
then
asked
the
astrologer
if
he
was
aware
of
the
day
of
his
death.
The
astrologer
replied
that
he
would
die
in
twelve
years.
The
minister
at
once
drew
his
sword
and
beheaded
the
astrologer.
He
turned
to
the
king,
“Do
you
see
this
liar?
He
who
said
would
die
in
twelve
years,
is
dead
now,
right
before
your
eyes!"
The
wise
minister
advised
the
king,
“If
you
want
to
keep
your
nation
alive
and
throbbing,
then
keep
away
from
such
things"
Swami Vivekananda says that the true worth of things, which we may term as all good things can be determined if only they strengthen us. Anything that causes weakness in us ought to be shunned as unworthy.
