The evil you do remains with you, the good you do, comes back to you
Wonderful story….with POWERFUL lesson
A woman baked chapatti (roti) for members of her family and an extra one for a hungry passerby. She kept the extra chapatti on the window sill, for whosoever would take it away. Every day, a hunchback came and took away the chapatti. Instead of expressing gratitude, he muttered the following words as he went his way: “The evil you do remains with you: The goo

A woman baked chapatti (roti) for members of her family and an extra one for a hungry passerby. She kept the extra chapatti on the window sill, for whosoever would take it away. Every day, a hunchback came and took away the chapatti. Instead of expressing gratitude, he muttered the following words as he went his way: “The evil you do remains with you: The goo
d you do, comes back to you!” This went on, day after day. Every day, the hunchback came, picked up the chapatti and uttered the words:
“The evil you do, remains with you: The good you do, comes back to you!” The woman felt irritated. “Not a word of gratitude,” she said to herself… “Everyday this hunchback utters this jingle! What does he mean?” One day, exasperated, she decided to do away with him. “I shall get rid of this hunchback,” she said. And what did she do? She added poison to the chapatti she prepared for him!
As she was about to keep it on the window sill, her hands trembled. “What is this I am doing?” she said. Immediately, she threw the chapatti into the fire, prepared another one and kept it on the window sill. As usual, the hunchback came, picked up the chapatti and muttered the words: “The evil you do, remains with you: The good you do, comes back to you!”
The hunchback proceeded on his way, blissfully unaware of the war raging in the mind of the woman. Every day, as the woman placed the chapatti on the window sill, she offered a prayer for her son who had gone to a distant place to seek his fortune. For many months, she had no news of him.. She prayed for his safe return.
That evening, there was a knock on the door. As she opened it, she was surprised to find her son standing in the doorway. He had grown thin and lean. His garments were tattered and torn. He was hungry, starved and weak. As he saw his mother, he said, “Mom, it’s a miracle I’m here. While I was but a mile away, I was so famished that I collapsed. I would have died, but just then an old hunchback passed by. I begged of him for a morsel of food, and he was kind enough to give me a whole chapatti. As he gave it to me, he said, “This is what I eat everyday: today, I shall give it to you, for your need is greater than mine!”
” As the mother heard those words, her face turned pale. She leaned against the door for support. She remembered the poisoned chapatti that she had made that morning. Had she not burnt it in the fire, it would have been eaten by her own son, and he would have lost his life!
It was then that she realized the significance of the words: “The evil you do remains with you: The good you do, comes back to you!” Do good and Don’t ever stop doing good, even if it is not appreciated at that time. If you like this, share it with others and I bet so many lives would be touched.

Mercury Retrograde Nov 2012
November 6th to November 26th, 2012
- Shadow: 18 Scorpio, October 19th
- Retro Station: 4 Sagittarius, November 6
- Direct Station: 18 Scorpio, November 26th
- Release: 4 Sagittarius, December 15th
This is a retrograde when you might lose sight of the shore, as insight comes in that takes time to integrate. Layers of reality can be revealed that are shocking or unlock what's been too painful to deal with. The gifts come later, with wisdom and a full sense of the big picture.
The Prequel - Mercury in Shadow
Mercury is direct, but moving across retrograde degrees of Scorpio starting October 19th. That meansMercury is in its shadow phase. Mercury Scorpio peers into dark places and has a radar for what's worth drawing out. This foreshadows many dramatic revelations through the (extended) Mercury retro period to mid-December.
Mercury's Flash Light On
- Denial of something too dark to face gives way to the courage to see what's there.
- Sensing there's more to the story.
- Seeing through false fronts and tuning into the undercurrents of power.
- Becoming aware of drains on energy (psychic pulls, unfinished business, manipulation).
- Resussitation of a deadened part of the self -- recovery from trauma, entanglements, psychic drain.
Mercury's official retrograde is November 6th to November 26th. It begins at 4 Sagittarius and dials back to 18 Scorpio (through the shadow degrees). If you're traveling, factor in that there may be delays. Take soul food with you -- a nourishing book or MP3 interview, for example.
If Mercury messes with time, though, see what's there to experience. There can be scenes of surprising poignancy, out of the blue -- random sharing that seem significant and sticks with you. More heart-to-hearts, even if its messy and "not appropriate" for the workplace or suchlike.
There can be purging, venting, raging -- a volcano of emotion that's been capped is opened. Be cautious about making decisions, if you experience a personal meltdown. Along with it being Mercury retrograde, the emotional force that's unleashed can lead to acting from peak intensity. I'm sure you've experienced that sense of being blinded by rage. It's wise to give yourself time to deal with (transform) and integrate all that's rising.
The upside of Mercury dancing back into the psychic epiphany degrees teases out deeper understanding. We see a pattern, for example, of how we've narrowed our choices, to keep certain impulses under control and unexpressed. Mercury retro is often a flash back to a missing piece. In Scorpio degrees that missing piece could be the emotional truth of a situation. It's time to weave in emotional intelligence, if that's been dropped along the way.
