Conversation between Vivekanand & Ramkrishna

Vivekanand:- I can’t find free time. Life has become hectic.
Ramkrishna :- Activity gets you busy. But productivity gets you free.

Vivekanand:- Why has life become complicated now? 
Ramkrishna :-Stop analyzing life.. It makes it complicated. Just live it. 

Vivekanand:- Why are we then constantly unhappy?
Ramkrishna :-Worrying has become your habit. That’s why you are not happy.


Vivekanand:-Why do good people always suffer?


Ramkrishna:-Diamond cannot be polished without friction. Gold cannot be purified without fire. Good people go through trials, but don’t suffer.
With that experience their life becomes better, not bitter. 

Vivekanand:-You mean to say such experience is useful? 
Ramkrishna :- Yes. In every term, Experience is a hard teacher. She gives the test first and the lessons afterwards.


Vivekanand:-Because of so many problems, we don’t know where we are heading…
Ramkrishna:- If you look outside you will not know where you are heading. Look inside. Eyes provide sight. Heart provides the way.


Vivekanand:-Does failure hurt more than moving in the right direction?Ramkrishna :- Success is a measure as decided by others. Satisfaction is a measure as decided by you. 


Vivekanand:-In tough times, how do you stay motivated?
Ramkrishna :- Always look at how far you have come rather than how far you have to go. Always count your blessing, not what you are missing. 

Vivekanand:- What surprises you about people?
Ramkrishna :- When they suffer they ask, “why me?” When they prosper, they never ask “Why me?” 


Vivekanand:- How can I get the best out of life?
Ramkrishna :- Face your past without regret. Handle your present with confidence. Prepare for the future without fear.


Vivekanand:- One last question. Sometimes I feel my prayers are not answered.
Ramkrishna :- There are no unanswered prayers. Keep the faith and drop the fear. Life is a mystery to solve, not a problem to resolve.
