I am working in the diamond business as a diamond grader (sorter). One day at lunchtime, my colleague and I were in the washroom. An elderly person (a broker) was also present there. When he took out his handkerchief, I noticed something had fallen out of his pocket. The man was in a hurry and left without knowing his loss. I went close to see what had fallen, and it was a packet filled with diamonds! I picked it up and ran after the elderly person to give it back to him. He was really tense and frightened at his loss. When I gave him the lost packet, his face broke out into a relieved smile, and he thanked me for this kind act. I also felt very blissful at heart.
I thank Swamiji and the Black Lotus team for developing such a fantastic app. which helped me do such a mindful and compassionate act.
Takeaway
Compassion and mindfulness go hand in hand.
