There are three components in life:
1. Effort. Without your self-effort, nothing happens. So you have to put in your effort.
Will everything happen only through your effort? No.
You make an effort and sow a mango sapling today and you want the fruit of it tomorrow, it is not going to give you the fruits tomorrow. It will take its time.
2. That is the second aspect: Time. Everything has a right Time.
Similarly, even for acting there is a right time. Suppose in winter you sow a mango sapling and then you say, ‘Oh, nothing has sprouted’, it is not going to sprout now, unless it is in a greenhouse.
_There is a right time to act and a right time to receive the fruit of action as well. So, time is the second factor._
3. The next factor is a higher power or grace; that of all possibilities.
You should always keep room for possibilities; give miracles a chance. Logically you may think that something is impossible, but many times it becomes possible. How many of you have had this experience? A gift from the higher power is that of all possibilities.
_You can club the three components as perseverance, patience and possibility. These are the three aspects. This is knowledge._
At midnight, you cannot say, ‘I made all the effort, I removed the curtain but the sun is not coming in’. No, the sun will only come at the right time. And if you have all the blinders on even when the sun is there, you will not get the light. So, all the three have to match.
Like in a cell phone, the charger, sim card and the signal, all these have to be there. If the phone is charged but the sim card isn’t there or the range isn’t there, then the phone is not going to work. So, all three aspects are needed.
If you put a lot of effort at the right time, there is achievement. But sometimes it also happens that you put very little effort but still you are very successful. This is because the unseen possibilities are coming to your help. For example: someone has not put any effort, but they won a lottery.
_When time and possibilities come together, you call it luck. You say, ‘I don’t know how it all happened!’_
In a devotee’s life this is more; the right time and the possibility come together.
When you put in a lot of self-effort, but there is very little support from nature that is bad luck.
When there is little effort but a lot of support from the divine, it is good luck.
Have a great day !!!!
