AKBAR AND BIRBAL
Hello Friends, Again Welcome Back To All OF You With a very Beautiful And Interesting Story. So Without Wasting Any time Let's Begin The Story..............
Here is a story about Akbar And Birbal. Birbal was a wise jester in the court of king Akbar. One Day, both Akbar and Birbal were sitting and talking about God. Akbar asked Birbal, "How can God have many names and yet be one?" Birbal Replied, "Your Majesty, God is one. It is just that He is called by different names. Hindus call Him Bhagwan, Muslims call Him Allah, Sikhs call Him Satguru and Christians call Him Jesus Christ. Akbar was still confused and asked Birbal to explain further.

Birbal said, ''Your Majesty, let me explain once more.'' Birbal saw a servant who was wearing a turban. He called the servant and said,''Remove the turban and wear it around your waist.'' The servant did as was told. Birbal said,''Your Majesty, we will call this piece of cloth a belt now, as it is tied at the waist.''
Then Birbal asked the servant to open the cloth and tie it below the waist. The servant did as was told. Birbal,''We would call this piece of cloth dhoti now, Your Majesty.''
Finally, Birbal told the servant to tie the cloth back on the head. The servant did so. Birbal said,''Your Highness, It is turban again, as it is tied on the head.'' Birbal thanked the servant and asked him to leave.
He then told Akbar,''Your Highness, You just saw how the same piece of cloth was given different names. Similarly, people address God by different names and in different forms, as is mentioned in their religion.''

Birbal then took Akbar near the window and said,''water evaporates from water bodies and on reaching high altitude, the vapour cools down to form water droplets. The water droplets join together and are called clouds. When the droplets fall on the earth, we call it rain. Similarly, God is called by different names even through God Is One.'' Akbar was very happy and convinced. He told Birbal that now he had understood clearly that God Is One.
People worship God In different ways. They go to different places of worship and say the prayer in different languages. However, the place of worship as well as the language in which prayer is said does not matter. What matters is the sincerity. We must pray for the heart with all diligence. God understands all languages. He does not need translations. Any prayer that is done warmth and sincerity, that is heartfelt, is surely answered by GOD at the RIGHT time.
Moral - God is ONE but is called by different names.
QUOTE - ''God gave us the gift of like;
it is up to us to give ourselves the gift of living well."
