THE MOUNTAIN’S GREEN BLANKET

THE MOUNTAIN’S GREEN BLANKET Do Your Karma. Surrender the Rest. Mother Earth Is Already Carrying You. During a monsoon journey on the highway from Jaipur to Delhi, Dr. Abhishek Gilara noticed something he had seen many times before—but this time, he saw it differently. The mountain chains were completely covered in fresh green grass, plants and trees. They appeared to be sleeping peacefully beneath an enormous green blanket. And a simple observation became a profound question: If these giant mountains can surrender themselves completely to Mother Earth, why can’t we? A mountain may be enormous to us, but to Mother Earth, it is still her child. Just as an adult never stops being a baby in the heart of his mother, no matter how big we become, we remain children of the Mother who created, nourishes and carries us. The Mountain’s Green Blanket is a reflection on karma, surrender, faith, motherhood and our unnecessary habit of worrying about what lies beyond our control. It does not ask us to stop working. It asks us to work completely. Do your duty. Act lawfully. Follow your dharma. Give your complete effort. But when your karma is done, learn to surrender the result. Because the mountain does not carry Mother Earth. Mother Earth carries the mountain. And if she can carry mountains, perhaps your burdens are not as heavy for her as they appear to you. Work like a warrior. Trust like a child. And when you have done everything that was yours to do— rest assured like a mountain sleeping peacefully beneath its mother’s green blanket. **Nothing Is Too Big for Mother Earth. And No Child Is Ever Too Big for a Mother’s Care.**
