People who think in favour of others benefit are always loved by everyone. For example A Friend
is always a thoughtful person to us. It is universally accepted that whenever
there is a problem, first-person our eyes search for is our Friend. We always
need someone who thinks from our perspective in any situation. Thoughtful
nature always makes a person capable of overcoming all the hurdles that come in
the way to achieve success. There are 2 types of people, the one who is keen to
solve everything and the other one who is always ready to give up in any
situation. These are divided as Thoughtful and Thoughtless respectively.
Gautam Buddha once met a bandit who used to kill innocents cut their finger and tie it to the wreath.
While listening to his threats Buddha was calm and quiet. He then asked bandit
to pluck 2 flowers. Bandit surprisingly went and plucked flowers. Now he was
asked to again attach flowers to the same plant as they were earlier. Bandit was so
confused that why he was asked to pluck it and again joining those plants was
impossible.
When he asked Buddha about this he replied: “If you can’t join a flower back to its original place, you have no rights to pluck it, same as when we can’t make someone happy – we are no one to make them cry”. By this bandit was in the feet of Buddha. It was his thoughtful nature that helped a bandit to convert into a good person.
