Once, a person said to his guru that he has read Bhagavad Gita 13 times but his life has not changed. His master replied it doesn’t matter how much times you have read Bhagavad Gita but has Bhagavad Gita gone through you at-least once.
To give a explanation to this, I would like to add few sentences for better understanding. It doesn’t matter if you do pooja or go to holy places daily every day or every week but if you return from it on your way if you scold using bad words just because someone took a sudden turn or if you get mad at your family members for simple things and make your house feel like hell. Still you will not attain peace. I am not saying you mustn’t go to those place but I am saying you must lead a peaceful life because isn’t that the reason you go to that places to attain peace but you yourselves disturb your peace.
You might all wonder who will read Personality Development books or go to Personality Development Courses or Seminar? A study should a common factor in all top most successful and rich people is reading personality development book and people attend personality development seminar or courses. I don’t need to explain it whether you should read books or attend seminars because worlds most successful people and rich people do it so if you want to be like them then do what they follow.
I know still few people will disagree, so I will continue further. You don’t go to 12th standard when your 5 years of age. You go step by step from PKG to 12th standard. Similarly in work life you can’t turn your 50 million company into 500 million without better understanding of life and also the knowledge. So you need personality development books and courses or seminar to attain the next level in your life
I would like to conclude that personality development doesn’t work unless you work with personality development.
