Spiritual Journey is the unlearning of fear and the acceptance of Love - Marianne Wllson
The only TEMPLE that matters can be found within yourself - Dalai Lama
Life comes with its own ups and downs and that’s the interesting part of it! I always felt that it will be boring to have a normal steady life. Human nature is that we can never be content with what we have. Our present was our goal in the past, and our goal in the present is our future. As time goes ahead, our goals too keep changing. May be the essence remains the same but some aspects do change..and mostly it’s the monetary one!
When it comes to money there is a saying, that “ You should never be proud of how much you have. Today you have, whether you will have tomorrow or not, there is no guarantee” What I have experienced is that money is an important and major factor where we experience the ups and downs. And it is understood, as our lives or as a matter of fact lifestyle depends on it. Our predecessors were more of a “Saving Guys” and we at present are more of “ Live your Life to the fullest”. But again we do keep our savings as we not fools but we are now in an era where luxury is not for selected few, its for all of us!
After all that knowledge, lets dive into my personal experience. I had experienced my ups and downs in my engineering days like everyone else. I ended up studying in the last few months like everyoneelse and panicked when the result dates were near like everyone else. Nothing new, a common emotion or journey that every graduate goes through. Being an only child there was this need to prove myself to my parents who were damn good students holding a post graduate degree in their respective field. And I was the one who got distracted quite often and moved off course to get collided into obstacles. Now that’s a different story and would be shared under different topic!
I was never religious to start with, my parents would always do pooja in the morning. My dad would spend atleast an hour on Sunday, bathing all the idols, setting up the Mandir as that gave him the inner peace and probably motivation to get on with his hectic schedule for the coming week. As a child, I would sit with him every Sunday, but slowly as I started growing up, our Mandir time began to decrease. And I was moved away from spirituality! I guess that’s when a part of me, was struggling to stay alive!
There were times when I was so low, but talking to them made it easy. So they were my sprirital and mental guide. I am not crazy, they never spoke back! But the fact that I could release it out from my system without feeling embarrassed to talk to anyone made it easier!
I am expecting a mail or comment from you guys on which points do you follow and which ones you are going to work on! It is a 2 way street, it's not me just talking, I am looking for results.
So please subscribe, comment!
