Kite Points the Path to Success


Kite Points the Path to Success
  
The will of Almighty God and collective human effort are the two ingredients of success. A kite flies high in the sky. Why does the kite fly at such a height? The boy flying the kite would instantly reply "Yes, I am the cause for letting the kite fly high". Will the wind be silent? It will counter with the words 'I'. 'It is I alone who am showing right direction and causing it to fly'. The long string in the boy's hand will interrupt and say, "If I am snapped, what does the air do and how can the kite fly? I am the propeller for the kite to fly", so saying it would retaliate. Immediately, the tail of the kite fluttering at the bottom would quibble "what's the use of all of you, I alone did keep it right and it is all due to my effort that the kite does not turn upside down". Yes, for the kite to fly in the air, tail, string and the hand are all equally important.

The five fingers folded together make a powerful fist. However arduous the task might be, success can be achieved by collective effort. It is made possible only when everyone shoulders equal responsibility with an honest intent. We, the humans, must know our duty and responsibility and strive to accomplish it with unity, co-ordination and sincerity. Just as a long string makes the kite fly, so does the love of Baba forms the support and the base to our labor and ensures our success.
