Once upon a time a man was passing by a village just then he saw that some men were working with stones. Monk went to a man working there and asked what is being made here? The man replied angrily. I hope you see that I am cutting stones? Monk said “Of course, I can see but again I am asking what I am being made here. The man shouted. “I don’t know, I am dying here” working in heat and you are worried about what will be made here. Just leave from here. Listening this monk moved forward. He went to another man working there and asked what is being made here? The man replied I am working for money. I will get some money as a daily wage and that’s what matters to me. I don’t even know what is being made here.

The monk move forward he saw another man working there. Monk went to him and asked Do you know what is being made here? the man smiled and replied we are making temple here. Monk asked. You look so happy. Don’t you feel tired working here on such a hot day? Man replied, “No I don’t feel tired”. Then he continued “There is no big temple in this Village” and because of that people of this Village had to go to another Village to pray and celebrate. I also belong to this Village when I hit stone with a chisel, I hear melodious music in the sound of that hit of chisel.

happy man

I feel blessed I imagine that after few days when Temple construction will be completed and ready to be worshiped, Fair will be held here and people of this Village people will start coming here for singing prayers. When I think that how much happiness will it bring to people who will coming here then all this work does not feel like a work to me. I feel like I am having a fun. I find this work as a service to almighty. When I go home in the evening, I feel satisfied. I sleep at night with imagination of Temple and wake up in the morning with enthusiasm and rush here to carve pillars for the temple. Sometimes I start singing devotional songs while working. I have never enjoyed so much working like this in my entire life.

After listening to the man the monk smiled tapped the man on his shoulder and left from there. On the way he was thinking this is the secret of happy life. It is just difference of thinking and opinion only. someone is considering the work as a burden and spending whole life complaining and willing, while someone is enjoying life by considering the same work as a fun and pleasure.

Conclusion

If we see in our lives we will find that this is the way to live a happy life. When we do our every work with interest and enthusiasm then our whole life can be filled with happiness. Most of the people in the world do their work unwillingly and without interest and for this reason neither their work is done properly nor do they get pleasure in doing so. Such people can never become successful in their lives. On the other hand those who do their work with great interest and enthusiasm, not only their work is done perfectly, but also they get pleasure in doing. So we should remember that work is our worship.
A person who does not do his work with interest and enthusiasm cannot progress even in meditation. Because when you make a habit of doing your every work with interest and enthusiasm then you will also do meditation with interest and enthusiasm. And if you can do this then you can go much deeper in meditation. Apart from that doing any work carefully and happily is a meditation itself. Meditation does not mean just sitting cross-legged and watching your breath. Rather doing any work carefully is also a meditation because then we do something with interest we do it carefully and then we do something carefully then we get more and more focused on that work and then our mind is completely focused on some work then we start having less thoughts in our mind. And slowly and slowly our mind reaches a thoughtless state and when there are less thoughts in your mind you will start feeling joyful and that is a state of meditation. Therefore always remember that doing any work with interest and enthusiasm is no less than meditation. Doing your work with interest and enthusiasm will not only take you to the height of success only in this material world but also in the spiritual world. Therefore, in whatever field you work just do your work with interest and enthusiasm and you will find that every day of your life will be filled with abundance of happiness.
