who's ur Hanuman


When Valmiki completed his Ramayana, Narada wasn't impressed. "It is good, but Hanuman's is better", he said.

"Hanuman has written the Ramayana too?" Valmiki didn't like this at all, and wondered whose Ramayana was better.

After reading it, and finding it to be perfect, Valmiki couldn't help himself. He started to cry.
"Why are you crying?"asked Hanuman."Because after reading your Ramayana no one will read my Ramayana",replied Valmiki.

Hearing this Hanuman simply tore up the seven banana leaves stating "Now no one will ever read Hanuman's Ramayana."

Hanuman said, "You need your Ramayana more than I need mine. You wrote your Ramayana so that the world remembers Valmiki, I wrote my Ramayana so that I remember Ram." 👏

At that moment Valmiki realized how he had been consumed by the desire for validation through his work. His Ramayana was a product of ambition, but Hanuman's Ramayana was a product of pure devotion & affection. 🙏

There are people like Hanuman who don't want to be famous. They just do their jobs and fulfill their purpose.

There are many unsung " *Hanumans* " too...in your life...your #spouse, #mother, #father, #friends....

let's thank them and be grateful...for they made your life better..🙂

It may sound factual, “I won’t get the raise,” prudent, “If I try, I’ll fail,” or like a realistic observation, “I am all alone.” Negative self-talk hinders our healing, growth, evolution, and ascension, creating adverse outcomes for ourselves and our lives.   We all have an occasional dark cloud floating across our clear mental skies. However, it can’t rain every day! The more negative thoughts we have, the more ne...

Surrendering a policy: When should you do it — and should you at all?

Hi There, Individuals must look at the reason for surrender — whether they need the money or they think they can't make future premium payments — and accordingly make their decision... It is ironical that at a time when one is in desperate need of his/ her money, while surrendering a traditional policy (endowment or money back), policyholders in the majority of cases end up with a surrender value that is even lower than the premiums paid. Post pandemic the economy, and livelihoods, 2021-22-23witnessed a sharp spike in insurance policies being surrendered ahead of their maturity. Data show that more than  2.3 crore life insurance policies were surrendered  during the year — more than three times the number of policies (69.78 lakh) surrendered in 2020-21.
