THIS WILL CHANGE YOUR MINDSET | Buddha and Astrologer story | Gautam buddha motivational story |

[Music] one day after he had become enlightened buddha went to forest took bath in river and after that he sat under a tree in those times a tree was a pleasant place to sit under an astrologer of great proficiency in his trade came for a bath in the river and saw a footprint on the riverbank the astrologer was expert in telling the past and future about a person by looking at his feet or its marks he saw that these are the footprints of an emperor someone who should rule the world but then he wondered why should such a person be in this remote place near a jungle and he followed the footprint thinking that he will meet an emperor then he saw this mock gauthama sitting under a tree he looked at him and thought either my astrology has gone all wrong or i am being fooled or i am in some kind of hallucination what's happening here he started crying and started saying that today all of my astrology has failed he went to buddha and asked who are you buddha said i am nobody i am just nobody but you have the feet of an emperor you should conquer the word said astrologer buddha smiled and said i am the emperor of the word the astrologer said but you are a monk you are nothing buddha said i are nothing and i am nobody that is why everything is mine the astrologer got confused after listening to buddha and said i am not able to understand what are you saying please explain me astrologer was still crying buddha said you see my friend there are two types of emperors in this word one is who has conquered the whole world with power and oppression and another one is who has conquered himself who has conquered lust anger greed attachment and ego within himself one who has conquered the word his empire will be lost one day but the one who has conquered the enemies inside him his empire will never end then buddha went near that astrologer consoled him and said don't try my friend your astrology has not failed because in reality the real emperor is the one who has conquered all the enemies within himself if we see in our lives we will find that we all give great importance to worldly things and pleasures but whatever you achieve in this materialistic world one day it will be taken away from you but if you conquer your inner enemies like lust anger greed attachment ego then you will get such an infinite inner happiness that can never be taken away from you however it does not mean that you should not try to get materialistic things or pleasures you can do it but don't become so much used to this materialistic pleasure that tomorrow when they are taken away from you you cannot live without them even if a person conquers the whole world he will not be as happy as the person who has conquered his mind therefore if you want to win something then win over your inner enemies because in reality the winner is the one who has conquered his mind [Music] you
