Human life is a unique gift of God. It is the wonderful grace of the Supreme Soul that in this divine creation he has displayed his amazing skills. The good character of the man and the good deeds done by him leads to the welfare of this world. The inspiration for the good deeds done by a person is the result of the values received in the form of heritage in childhood. Any metal or object does not create that much attraction in its original form, as much as it can be transformed into a beautiful shape by some decoration and its attraction can be increased. The ornaments made of it attract more people than any particular metal. The same creative process is also proved in man when his creation takes place. That is when he is a child. Only then does he learn all the undertakings of the world by imitation. Now the question is, what kind of imitation did he get? If he observes good character and good conduct and behavior in his environment, then he will be well-cultured. By the way, the behavior of the parents during the pregnancy itself has a deep impact on the child. Devotee Prahlad and heroic Abhimanyu are strong examples of this.
Therefore, after the birth of a child, such an environment should be created in which the charming fragrance of good culture, good thoughts, and morality are included, which can make his soft mind fragrant. Parents and family members should not indulge in any behavior which is contrary to their own self. If they do so, they will have to face its consequences, because a child is such a lamp that becomes the beacon of the future of any parent. If he gets to see and hear good things, then he will also mold accordingly. On the contrary, if he sees the trend of vices in the family, then he will be affected badly and will become a bad person instead of a good one. That's why it is the duty of the parents and family members to give such inspiration and learning to the child that by being successful in his life path, he can create a Gulshan full of pleasant and fragrant flowers for himself, for society and for the nation and the world. May such good qualities develop in him that the path shown by him continues to inspire people by becoming a source of inspiration for ages.
Here the example of Dhruv can be given, who with the good inspiration of his mother, through penance, reached the place where great ascetics keep on thinking to reach. Maharaja Uttanpad had two queens, the elder Suniti and the younger Suruchi. Dhruv was the son of Suniti and Uttam of Suruchi. Maharaja loved the younger queen Suruchi more than anything, due to which Queen Suniti was neglected in the palace. Once Maharaja Uttanpad was sitting with Suruchi's son Uttam in his lap, Dhruv also comes and tries to sit on Maharaja's lap. When the king did not take him in his lap, he started to move. Suruchi, the stepmother did not like seeing Dhruv moving and she pulled Dhruv near the king and said that ‘Son, you do not have the right to sit on the king's lap, if you want to sit on the lap or on the throne, then do penance and pray to God. Ask for a boon to be born from the womb of mother Suruchi’.
The words spoken by Vimata Suruchi pierced child Dhruv's heart like an arrow. His face turned red with anger, tears of sorrow started pouring from his eyes and he reached his mother Suniti crying. Mother Suniti was horrified after listening to the words of Vimata Suruchi. There was immense sorrow in his heart. Tying patience, she said that son, happiness or sorrow is the result of one's own destiny. In this, others should not be considered as the reason for bad luck. Apart from this, I can’t help you. I am neglected by Maharaja himself. When any unethical act happens in the state, everyone tells their sorrow to the king, but to whom should I tell my sorrow? Son, wherever you are getting a good education, you should follow it. You should follow the path of austerity as told by Vimata Suruchi. Son, you meditate on the feet of God.
After listening to the inspiring sermon of the mother, Dhruv immediately left his father's kingdom and went to the forest to do penance. When Maharaja came to know about this, understanding the natural tendency of the children to go crazy, he asked his servants to persuade and bring the child back. When Dhruv did not return, Maharaja became distraught at the loss of his son and tried various ways to bring Dhruv back home. On the way to the forest, Dhruv met Naradji. Seeing his young age, Devarshi Narad wanted him to return home, but Dhruv said Muni ji, I am not going to change my path. If you want to do something for me, then show me the way to attain God. Seeing the strong determination of the child, Narad ji gave him the initiation of the great mantra "Namo Bhagwate Vasudevaya Namah". An innocent child of five years started worshiping God with a concentrated mind through this mantra. He consumed fruits of the forest for some time, then water for some time, then air for some time. After this, the air intake was also stopped.
Due to the non-breathing of devotee Dhruva, the flow of air in all three worlds stopped. Due to the power of his penance, the earth started rocking like a boat. Seeing this steadfast penance, God had to appear. The Lord was standing in front of Dhruv and he was engrossed in his penance with his eyes closed. Then the Lord himself entered his heart as a divine light. When Dhruv opened his eyes, he fell at the Lord's feet. He wanted to praise God but could not utter a word. Knowing his ardent desire, the Lord placed His boon on his head, which automatically caused the voices of divine praise to be uttered from his mouth. God took him in his lap and gave him a position that is unattainable to others. Blessed is the good inspiration of the mother, due to which Dhruv got such a position.
Even today the Dhruvtara shines in the sky, all the constellations and constellations revolve around it. In marriage, the Dhruvatara is shown to the bride and groom by the Acharya that the way this star is firm in its place, similarly both of you should be firm in this bond of marriage. Dhruv's unwavering determination teaches us that if a person has the desire to attain God or any unattainable thing, then age and circumstances are not a hindrance, only desire is needed.
