**Scene 1: The Begging Monk**

*Swami Ji stands in front of a house, calling out for alms.*

**Swami Ji:** "Bhiksha de de Maate!" (Give me alms, Mother!)

*A woman comes out of the house, carrying some food, and puts it in Swami Ji's bowl.*

**Woman:** "Mahatma Ji, please give me some advice."

**Swami Ji:** "Not today, I will give you advice tomorrow."

*The woman nods and goes back inside.*

**Scene 2: The Next Day**

*Swami Ji returns to the same house the next day, calling out for alms again.*

**Swami Ji:** "Bhiksha de de Maate!"

*The woman, having made kheer (a sweet dish) with almonds and pistachios, comes out holding a bowl of it.*

*Swami Ji holds out his bowl.*

*As the woman is about to pour the kheer, she notices that the bowl is full of dirt and cow dung. She hesitates.*

**Woman:** "Maharaj, your bowl is dirty!"

**Swami Ji:** "Yes, it is dirty. But still, pour the kheer in."

**Woman:** "No, Maharaj, the kheer will get spoiled if I pour it in. Please give me the bowl; I will clean it first."

**Swami Ji:** "So, you will only pour the kheer once the bowl is clean, right?"

**Woman:** "Yes, Maharaj!"

**Swami Ji:** "That is my teaching for today. Just like you won’t put the kheer in a dirty bowl, spiritual teachings cannot benefit a person whose mind is filled with worries, negative thoughts, and bad habits. If you want to truly receive and benefit from spiritual teachings, first cleanse your mind. Only after removing negative tendencies and thoughts can one experience true peace and happiness."

**Conclusion & Suggestion:**

Swami Ji's lesson is clear: just as the woman refused to put pure kheer into a dirty bowl, our minds must be clean to receive the pure teachings of spirituality. Today, many people consume information from various sources without discerning its quality, filling their minds with unnecessary clutter. We often follow those who provoke us instead of thinking for ourselves.

The suggestion is simple: clean your mind of negativity and stop following those who incite anger or hatred. Only with a clear and pure mind can we truly benefit from spiritual and intellectual teachings.

Stop mocking a legend whose life is dedicated for Bharat and Sanatan!!

BREAKING🚨 US Announces Resolution of the Outstanding WTO Poultry Dispute with India:

United States today announced that the US and India have agreed to resolve their last outstanding dispute at the World Trade Organization, India — Measures Concerning the Importation of Certain Agricultural Products (DS 430).

As part of the agreement, India also agreed to reduce tariffs on certain U.S. products, including frozen turkey, frozen duck, fresh blueberries and cranberries, frozen blueberries and cranberries, dried blueberries and cranberries, and processed blueberries and cranberries. These tariff cuts will expand economic opportunities for U.S. agricultural producers in a critical market and help bring more U.S. products to customers in India.

This announcement comes as President Biden met with Prime Minister Narendra Modi today in New Delhi, India for the G20 Leaders’ Summit. In August, Ambassador Tai met with India’s Minister of Commerce and Industry, Piyush Goyal, following the G20 Trade and Investment Ministers’ Meeting. During that meeting, Ambassador Tai and Minister Goyal discussed this WTO dispute and expressed their shared desire to reach a solution soon.

“Resolving this last outstanding WTO dispute represents an important milestone in the U.S.-India trade relationship, while reducing tariffs on certain U.S. products enhances crucial market access for American agricultural producers,” said Ambassador Tai. “These announcements, combined with Prime Minister Modi’s State Visit in June and President Biden’s trip to New Delhi this week, underscores the strength of our bilateral partnership. I look forward to continuing to work with Minister Goyal to deliver inclusive economic opportunities for our people.”

In June, the United States and India agreed to terminate six outstanding disputes at the World Trade Organization. India also agreed to reduce tariffs on certain U.S. products, including chickpeas, lentils, almonds, walnuts, apples, boric acid, and diagnostic reagents.
Today’s agreement resolves the remaining long-standing dispute and opens a new chapter of bilateral cooperation that will deepen the trade relationship between the United States and India.
