Life Conduct Series Chapter 6. Lack of Sanskaras (Good Values) lead to Disaster…

Lack of Sanskaras lead to Disaster. A Story of Lust and Betrayal:

The following story is based on true events that took place in Punjab, India about 4 years ago. It illustrates the consequences of neglecting spiritual guidance and the significance of Sanskaras (religious beliefs and noble life conduct). Through the experiences of Vijaypal (name changed), we explore the destructive path that lust and betrayal can lead to, and the importance of moral values in preserving the sanctity of family and relationships.

Vijaypal’s Lavish Life, but Missing Sanskaras:

Vijaypal, the only son of a wealthy industrialist, enjoyed a privileged upbringing. He had everything money could buy, including a luxurious lifestyle, a beautiful wife, and two children. However, Vijaypal lacked the knowledge of religious scriptures and the Sanskaras that instill noble conduct in life.

The Entry of Another Woman:

Nina, a young woman from a poor family, worked in the same company as Vijaypal. They developed an illicit relationship, concealed from Vijaypal’s wife. He showered Nina with expensive gifts, and they eventually engaged in intimate relations. Meanwhile, Nina’s husband left her, and Vijaypal started pressuring his wife for a divorce to marry Nina.

The Tragic Turn of Events:

Vijaypal’s wife discovered the affair and confronted Nina, urging her to mend her ways. The family intervened, and Nina had to leave the company and the flat provided by Vijaypal. The situation seemed resolved, and a few months passed peacefully. However, fate had a grim turn in store.

The Shocking Outcome:

One day, Vijaypal received a call from the police, summoning him home. When he arrived, he discovered his wife, mother, and a neighbor lying lifeless in a pool of blood. The police investigation revealed that Nina had orchestrated the murders. Vijaypal’s secret conversations with her and their plan to eliminate his wife were uncovered. The hired killers, in their panic, mistakenly targeted all three women present in the house, rather than just Vijaypal’s wife. The tragic incident shattered the entire family.

Lessons Learned:

This tragic story teaches us several crucial lessons:

1. The Dangers of Lust and Betrayal: The lustful liaison between Vijaypal and Nina led to the destruction of an entire family. It serves as a stark reminder of the catastrophic consequences that arise from infidelity and betrayal.

2. The Importance of Sanskaras: Without the spiritual guidance and moral values imbibed through Sanskaras, individuals can easily stray from the path of righteousness and harm themselves and others.

3. Cherishing Family and Relationships: Vijaypal’s actions resulted in the loss of his wife, mother, and the trust of his children. It underscores the importance of cherishing and nurturing healthy family relationships and prioritizing their well-being above personal desires.

4. Respect for Marriage and Commitment: Marriage vows should be honored, and commitments should be respected. Infidelity not only erodes trust but also brings immense pain and suffering to everyone involved.

Conclusion:

The true story of Vijaypal serves as a cautionary tale, emphasizing the significance of Sanskaras and moral values in leading a righteous life. It highlights the devastating consequences of lust, betrayal, and neglecting the sanctity of family. By learning from this tragedy, we can strive to cultivate strong character, uphold the values of trust and loyalty, and foster harmonious relationships within our families and communities.
