There was a snack joint near our college campus. We often went there for snacks and there was a lot of rush.
Many times I had noticed that a person came and took advantage of the crowd after eating, and secretly left without paying.
One day while he was eating, I secretly informed the owner that this person would take advantage of the rush and leave without paying the bill.
Listening to me, the owner smiled and said, "Let him go, and we will talk about it later."
As usual, this person after having his snacks, looked around and taking advantage of the crowd, quietly slipped away.
After he left, I now asked the owner to tell me why he had let the man go .. why did he ignore this man's action ???
The answer given by the owner of the breakfast point lit up my senses and to this day, I have not forgotten the grand lesson.
He told me that you are not alone, many others have noted him and have told me about him.
He said that this person sat in front of the shop and when he saw that it is crowded, he would sneak in and eat.
"I always ignored it and never stopped him .. never caught him nor ever tried to disrespect him. Because I think that the rush in my shop is due to the prayer of this person ....
He would be sitting in front of my shop, praying that if there is a rush in this shop then he could quickly go in, eat and leave......
And surely enough there is always a rush when he comes in and his prayers are powerful.
I do not want to invite my misfortune by cutting my own leg in the matter of the acceptance of his prayer.
This will always be ignored by me and I will always let him eat food and will never disrespect him by catching him!!!
Prayers make everything possible & who knows we are flourishing in our life due to prayers of many known, unknown ones around us."

The King of Greece came to India on a state visit. President Radhakrishnan welcomed him at Palam Airport. . “Your Majesty! You are the first King of Greece to come to India on invitation. The last time, Alexander the Great came uninvited.” 😂 Gandhiji: Don’t drink milk, which is the essence of beef. Radhakrishnan: “In that case we all are cannibals. For we drink our mother’s milk, which is the essence of human flesh.” 😂 Winston Churchill while having a cup of tea said to Dr. Radhakrishnan: Sugar is the only English word where "s" is pronounced as "sh" Dr. quipped: "Are you sure?" 😂 Once Winston Churchill hosted a State banquet in honor of Dr Radhakrishnan, who washed his hands before eating and used his hands for having the food while Churchill used...
