The importance of our thoughts story

A thought is the most important thing, because we become that,


what we think of.
There lived a Sannyasi once, a holy man, sitting by the tree and
teaching people. He drank milk, and ate only fruit, endlessly was doing
pranayama and thought of himself as a saint. In the same village lived
an angry woman. Everyday Sannyasi went to warn the woman that
the magic that she was doing will bring her to hell. The poor woman
couldnt change her lifestyle because her magic was the only way for
her existence. The picture of her future that Sannyasi painted had a
big impression on her. She cried and prayed to God begging to forgive
her, because she couldnt help herself.
And then the saint and the witch died. Angels came and took her soul
to heaven, and for the soul of Sannyasi came the devils.
- Why is that? - He protested, - didnt I live a life of a saint and
preached the impeccancy? Why are they taking me to hell and the evil
witch has gone to heaven?
- Because, - the devils responded, - she was forced to commit
improper deeds, but her soul was always stretching to God, she
prayed for forgiveness and now redemption came to her. And you did
opposite, you committed only good deeds, but in your mind you were
always concentrated on evil coming from others. You saw only sin,
thought only about sin, so now you will go somewhere where there is
only sin.
