Aim for the Peak


Aim for the Peak

Some people were enjoying the scenic site near a pond. There were numerous lotus flowers in full bloom on the surface of the pond which every body appreciated. A wise man was in deep thought. He was thinking about the length of the lotus. Will it be two feet? Or four feet? How much will it be? Then suddenly it struck him.

A Lotus by itself has no length or height. The depth of Water is the height of a lotus. A smile like the full bloom of a Lotus appeared on his face. If the level of water in the pond is two feet, the lotus stands above it. If the water level increases to 20 feet, the lotus stands above it.

The concept of peak remains the same but its interpretation changes according to the field.
Whatever may be the field one should always aim for the peak. If a person has the motivation to reach the peak in his chosen field he is bound to reach it.
We know that as the water level rises, the lotus also goes up (in a water body).What can raise us? Thoughts! Only when our thoughts are raised, can we attain a higher level.
The level of water determines the level of the lotus.Similarly, in our life only the level of thoughts determines our position. A person with high, refined, good and sensible thoughts will achieve a high status in life and a person with low thoughts (cheap, evil) will never attain anything in life and will be at the lowest strata.

The height of the Lotus in a pond is determined by the depth of the water in the pond.Similarly, your ‘Thoughts’ determine your position in society. If you have high, refined thoughts, with a high degree of clarity, nothing can stop you from achieving what you want.
