A story of someone who cannot live happily and peacefully.

A rich man lived in a big village. He had a lot of property, money and jewels. So he crawled into the town with significant influence, honour gained, clothes and ornaments increased, and all wealth was obtained but he has one shortcoming, he just doesn't get sleep every day.

 No matter how much he tries to sleep, no matter how calm he meditates, he just can't sleep. Even if he takes medicine from outside he will not get sleep. This was the biggest flaw in his life and he was tormented by this and asked many people for advice about his inability to sleep. But no one could give him the right solution and so he was in great agony and his mind was not at peace.

  One day he saw that a laborer living next door was happy. Yes! He is our neighbour! We did not know about him until now! The rich man goes and asks why you are so happy today? That worker said, "I have a gold coin today, so I am very happy." Then the rich man asked, are you happy like this every day? Do you sleep well every day? He labour man replied yes Sir I am so glad every day and sleep well.

Immediately the rich man brought a thousand gold coins from his house and gave them to the worker. Keep this to yourself! He said you will live happily if you keep this. The worker was very happy and took the thousand gold coins. The rich man thought that knowing how the labourer sleeps happily and peacefully with all these coins, we could follow suit. Thus the rich man eagerly waited to know how the laborer lived happily with wealth without sleeping until the next morning.

 When the next morning dawned, he thought he could go and meet the worker, but the worker came to the door of the house with a thousand gold coins. Master! Get your thousand gold coins yourself I can't keep it any longer he said. What happened? The Rich man asked. Someone will steal these thousand gold coins from home! I closed all the doors in fear of that and I lost my sleep all night thinking that thieves would come so please take back your gold coins yourself. Only then did the rich man know that if he lives in fear of losing his wealth, and how can he sleep peacefully?

  If we live with the courage to take care of whatever happens tomorrow, instead of running our lives on the basis of our wealth or the fear of something happening to us, we will find peace and happiness in life.
