Sheep, by Javier Figuerola or Haripada dasa
Share an interesting story told by a friend of mine, he and another person were to present some ideas to a political party, spoke with the president of the party and presented the ideas, the president said who are you to present these ideas, you are a sheep and you have to do what I tell you, I am the oldest sheep, my friend said then that where our individuality and independence is, the president replied that they were sheep and lambs have no independence or individuality, they do tell you the biggest sheep. These two people were very frustrated and told the other that the president is a very strange person and the other told him that even stranger must be the people who follow him. When there is a brave and determined lamb that is out of the pack to try to be happy and free and get it in the herd of sheep, the other sheep instead of rejoicing, grab them envy. In connection with the politics our spiritual master Srila Prabhupada says in his books that today's politicians are agitators demons and that everyone who issue these infernal leaders who take refuge in this process of God consciousness or Krishna and also says that if devotees of God or Krishna take control of the government, then people will be happy.
The difference between the devotees of God or Krishna and sheep is the devotee of God has all the good qualities of God and are always thinking of doing good to others, and sheep suffer when they see the devotees of God filled happiness and freedom and become very happy when they see others suffer, have no good quality for living in the physical and mental plane, and are very selfish and live in terms of me and mine.
Thought to ponder:
"Get out of the darkness and see the light, God or Krishna is like the sun and ignorance is like darkness, where is God or Krishna, there can be ignorance or darkness."
