The Choice That Changes Everything
Every story carries a precious and valuable lesson.
There is a story about a man who, after he dies, finds him self standing before St. Peter. St. Peter looks at the account of his life and decides that the man must go to hell. However, because he had also done some noble deeds, he is given the opportunity to spend a few moments in heaven as well.
First, St. Peter takes him to hell.
There, the man sees a long table beautifully decorated with delicious, nourishing food. Yet everyone sitting around the table is starving to death.
The man is puzzled and asks St. Peter, “Why aren’t they eat ing?”
St. Peter explains, “They have been given four-foot-long forks. They can reach the food, but the forks are so long that they cannot bring the food to their own mouths.”
The man understands and says, “Okay.”
Then St. Peter says, “Let me show you heaven. You are going to spend eight minutes there.”
When they arrive in heaven, the man is surprised to see the exact same table, the same beautiful food. But this time, they have eaten, are enjoying the meal together and fully satisfied and jolly.
The man turns to St. Peter and asks, “They must have been given smaller forks here.”
St. Peter smiles and says, “No. They have the same four-footlong forks.”
“Then how did they feed themselves?”
“They fed one another,” St. Peter replies.
They knew the secret of life: that if you do something good for somebody, nature replies to you in the same way. They were not thinking only of themselves. Each person was using their long fork to feed someone sitting across the table, and in doing so, everyone was fed.
When we share what we have with others, there is enough for everyone.
The story reminds us that heav-
en and hell are not necessarily different places, but can be created by the way we choose to live with one another. The surroundings are the same, yet the experience is completely different. In hell, people are consumed by their own hunger and think only of themselves, leaving everyone to suffer. In heaven, people recognize that they are connected and use what they have to care for one another. By feeding others, they too are fed. When we move beyond selfishness and learn to share, cooperate, and look after one another, we create heaven wherever we are.
Guru Nanak Dev Ji reminds us of the importance of sharing what we have and putting every gift, every boon we have received, in the service of humanity. A gift we have been blessed with becomes even more beautiful when it is shared.
