Confidence, Over Confidence and Under Confidence

In Ramayana we see three characters where we can identify the level of confidence in them.

Hanuman ji, when monkey armies were in full anxiety about who will cross this huge ocean?Immediately when Jambvant Ji indicates Hanuman Ji, He realized his power and He confidently accepted the challenge remembering Lord Rama in his heart he jumped for Lanka.

Confidence is quality of goodness where person always situated in knowledge and he knows his strength very well.

Ravana, King of Lanka when Hanuman Ji destroyed whole Lanka and warned Ravana to return mother Sita else ready to die from the hands of Lord Rama but due to over confidence of his power he completely ignored warning of Hanuman Ji.

Over Confidence is quality of passion where a person only think of achieving things and due to attachment he forgot his original strength.

Kalnemi, Ravana's powerful soldier but when Ravana went to Kalnemi and asked him to block the path of Hanuman Ji and explained strength of Hanuman Ji how powerful he is, Kalnemi afraid by power of Hanuman Ji because of he was not confident of his own strength against Hauman Ji and when he go to block the path of Hanuman Ji he took form of sage.

Under Confidence is quality of Ignorance where a person can not be confident about his own strength as he has never applied his strength against any challenge.

From above characters we can understand a person who is situated in full knowledge can develop confidence, and in passion develop over confidence and in ignorance under confidence.

A person who see everything through his senses in full knowledge can always remain in Confidence.

TIT for TAT OR Tolerate That

Many of the times we go through situations where we get confused what to do now? According to our Vedic Scriptures we should keep three things in our mind and accordingly react or respond on situations. If you can change it: Situations comes in your life or brought by some people and you know if it is completely against our religious principle, then you must stand against it and try to change the situations. When Hauman Ji reached in Lanka and Lankini the guard of Lanka tried to stop Him and because it was against the religious principle as his own master kidnapped others wife, Hanuman Ji punched on her mouth by His left hand and move on. Same way if you have power and know things are going against Dharma, you should change the situations else you have to suffer sinful reactions of it. If you can not change it: Sometimes situations are completely against us and we are not even able to change it then that time we must accept the situation and try to tolerate it. You don't believe...
