Why Good Things Happen to Bad People Why Good Things Happen to Bad People ?

What ever God does he knows best the reason but at the end of the day whatever happens is for the best I am sure!!

chinese story : " who knows what is good or bad ?"
in a village in china , there was a lazy fella like me who used to sleep and do nothing.
once his father told him to bring some wood , the bugger fractured his leg in the process.
fellow villagers told his dad " too bad "
dad replied : who knows what is good are bad?
mean while def con was sounded in china , all the young people were called to serve in chinese army except the bugger with the broken leg.
villagers told his dad : " too good "
dad replied  : "who knows what is good or bad "
bugger with broken leg was in the jungle , chinese province was captured and all were killed except the bugger with broken leg "
akash wani : "too good "
lazy bugger replied : " who knows what is good or bad "
the victorious army was passing by , the king's daughter saw the lazy bugger ( now fully cured " fell in love with him ( lazy buggers are handsome , as they are tension free )
akash wani : " too good "
lazy bugger replied : " who knows what is good or bad "
and the story goes on ( it's long )
moral of the story : " who knows what is good or bad ???????????????
 

Well said Mr. Raghu.

First one should be able to define what is Good and what is Bad.
Secondly, this definition should hold good and same for all Gurmukhs and manmukhs of the world. Then only comparison is possible
Third, please do not undervalue God, to human level by saying he would do good to us materially (in terms of Diamonds and cash) or harm us physically in the form of death and pain, just because one did not pray to him and the other prayed.

God does not change his plans for us based on our minisicule prayers. God does not benefit us by giving us material and mortal benefits. God is immortal. God's creation is flaw less. So god does not have to alter his plans or reduce the pain based on our short term and selfish prayers.

Everything in this world is given by God and it is good only. There is nothing in this world that is called as Bad. Still if we wish to call bad, then we are judging or benchmarking God's creation based on our likes and dislikes, our perceptions etc.

Things do happen in nature no matter whatever it is, every thing in this craetion is just a part of it.

Irony of life!

It is said and known that God takes away from you the thing which is the most dearest sooner than you would want it. Its his way of telling you that you are DESTINED for something even more better!

Good things will always happen to bad people and bad things to good people. Its a mirage. Bad in definition means that; "having undesirable or negative qualities". Now you find a surprise laid out in front of you and you grab it thinking you were lucky, think that if not for COAL it would have been diamonds! That would indeed be a better dividend if you had been praying!
Similarly, if you were destined to be hurt or even die, because you pray you have been only pierced!

Patience pays in a big way. To pay your respect to Him is a way of acknowledging that what you deserve is what you get! But by not doing so you may miss out on BIGGER things in life!

Take the case of Krishna & Sudama. For a handful of puffed rice Sudama got a palace!
Very good example indeed! The bigger lesson that you learn is to accept what you have and move ahead! Emotions are in control and you have FAITH in your actions.
