Story- Freedom
On the occasion of Guru Poornima let me cover a story told by Sadguru.
Once Shankaran Pillai went to the bar with his friends and when the clock struck 8 pm, he put down his half-full glass and started walking towards the door.
All his friends were asking him to at least finish the glass and go, but he kept walking. His friends said, “We know why you are walking out, you are afraid of your wife. What are you? Are you a man or a mouse?”
Shankaran Pillai turned back, kept his hands on his hips, stared at them and said, “I am the Man in my house, if I was a Mouse my wife would be afraid of me” 
🙂)
🙂)He walked slowly thinking of what to say to his wife and when he reached home, his wife was waiting for him at the doorsteps with a stick.
She shouted, “You fool, can’t you come on time before 8 pm, you have started drinking again…”. Shankaran Pillai went slowly and closer to her and took a sudden leap over her and started running inside the house.
He is a small and fragile guy, he had lots of hope that she could not catch her. He started running all over the house and went to the bedroom. He went under the bed and there he lied down with his hands at the back of the head.
His wife is a bit fat so she can’t get under the bed. She said, “You fool to come out of the bed, you coward…”.
Shankaran Pillai replied, “I am the Man of the House and I can lie down wherever I wish” 🙂)
🙂)Learning from the story
Here Shankaran Pillai may represent any business owner at some point in their lives and his wife represents all fundamental rules to be followed for a successful business and holistic life.
Here, freedom of Shankaran Pillai is ephemeral (short-lived) and shallow.
Freedom is not living without rules but freedom is living by following rules.
