We have to correct the bad habits we have. It can lead to disaster if not controlled. For example, let's see a justice story here. A beautiful village. All the people living in that village were leading their lives happily. In that village there was a boy named Raju. His act disturbed the peace of the villagers. The villagers were afraid of Raju.
Raju father and mother name are Ram and Lakshmi. Both felt sorry for him. One day Ram was crying at work telling his friend about his son. Ram "He does this when he is a child, what will happen if he is brought up as an adult?" as regretted. Ram's friend suggested an idea. There is a Guru Kula at the foot of the hill in our village and he said to bring your son. He said the teachers there will guide him. As he said, Raju enrolled his son in that Guru Kula. He told the Guru there about his son and got upset. He said, "His son is always thinking about himself and his happiness. He doesn't listen to anyone. If he needs something, he dares to do anything for it. He is very angry, does not behave politely to anyone" and he said that he had brought his son to them for that purpose. A few days passed. In Guru Kula, Raju threatened everyone that he would not listen to anyone and would act according to his wishes. Noticing this, the Guru decided to teach him a lesson in life.
One day Guru took Raju and went into the forest. On the way Guru said "If we understand ourselves, it is good for us and others. He who loses self-control will suffer greatly in life". While walking in the forest, Guru showed a small plant and told Raju to uproot it. He immediately said, "It won't take a second to uproot it" and pulled uproot the plant.
A short distance away was a thorn bush. Guru asked Raju if he could uproot it. Raju said "need sickle". The Guru said, "Can you uproot it with your hand? I thought you were very strong". Raju immediately snatched the thorn bush with all his strength saying that no one can help me. There were bloody wounds on his body. Then he said to the Guru, there is nothing I cannot do.
They went a little further and there was a big tree and Guru asked Raju if he could uproot it. Raju said, "Guru, how is this possible. How can do it?” Guru smiled and walk the way. Raju said why are you smiling?
Guru "First you plucked a small plant, then you plucked a thorn bush, like a thorn your words and your actions are. Now you understand how much it hurts others. If you don't pluck it when it is still small, it will eventually become like a tree. It will not only hurt you but also others. No one likes this thorn bush. It will also hurt you. It will destroy you. Change yourself is good for you and good for others. The guru returned to the Guru Kula. Raju silently pondered what Guru had said and followed him.
