It is too late to escape from life…….
A good discipline should be inculcated in children. Because then serendipity happens through the child’s routine.
Make your needs, felt needs. Make your felt needs, your demands. Work towards fulfilling those demands.
You have been born some 20–40 years ago, then why escape life? Why not live for living? For those friends who want to escape and not face the world are many. For them each new day is an unplanned endeavor which needs to pass on in the hope for excitement, adventure or they cease to get up in the morning, become rebels, waste their time to think that something extraordinary will bring them back to life!!
Sometimes they plan good but the impetus, the urge, the motivation vanishes at the beginning of the day, making their life miserable, mostly unknowingly because they haven’t seen the other side, the other difficult way that will create an easy path for them to achieve later in life. They may begin to think in their 65 years old self that they shouldn’t have worried so much, if only they worked their joints a bit more or were more particular about their nutrition or were more loving to their siblings and so on.
So the discipline, it makes you have a routine. Practicing same things without getting bored, makes us energy efficient, we explore more easy ways to live by mastering our routine and we get control over the what next attitude. We start mastering something additional than only accomplish small goals on everyday basis that leaves very little room for our failures and disappointments to indulge upon or regrets and quarrels preventing our peace of mind. That is the basic reason why the early men found work hunting, farming, settling at one place and finally finding work for themselves. Not everything is done for becoming famous overnight. Our background work should speak. The work of others whom we follow speaks. The work done already teaches us, it is for us to summarize meaning from it, and act according to our whims after exploring the spectacle of our own life and the contributions of others both positively and negatively that have shaped our situation today, only today.
My father always takes life as it comes. My mother anticipates, she has premonition so she averts danger, warns him out of it. Both communicate with each other. That solves their world’s problems in the most meticulous manner according to their capability, innocence and hard work.
Therefore, there is no single way to decide which path is correct. Not every time we find adventure and novelty. We need to get very boring at times. We need to stay there, persist, be consistent, and be ourselves for creating a unique life, though never forgetting that uniqueness lies in the mother’s lap. Rest is all like what I have is abundance and so do you.
The Deities in Hinduism are nothing but the desires which they fulfill. These are the higher order needs of humans. These we propagate to achieve by praying to a particular deity who helps us achieve it. It is like a vow, a sankalpa, a promise we make to ourselves in front of the altar every morning. Similar to all other religions, making a promise to work for our felt needs, is always a structured way to organize our life’s path. We give our promise a form, through, the devi or dev who guides us and helps us construct a path for ourselves to not escape from life but to live it. The needs could be knowledge, so we buy books to read, and find time to learn. It could be wealth, we find work that is lucrative. It could be energy and well-being, we promise to exercise and get up early in the morning to complete our routine and keeping the rest of the day for our heart’s desire with harmonious work and play. Anyone can get up in the morning, and follow the energy of the sun, listen to birds out in the open, plan and execute something important and difficult during early hours that makes him feel happy and content. What is left is pleasure after finishing the call for the day, it becomes a piece of cake. Adequate rest, play and struggles require the next day’s planning and allocating time slots before going to sleep, makes one live a very authentic life. Then who would want to escape from life? Who wouldn’t yearn for well-being? Who wouldn’t be ready for fearless endeavors when the background work is done? ‘Let us face life’ will become the leading thought, and we can take care of others too, how not, but with discipline and clarity we have about our life’s purpose.
Henceforth, work hard every single day to clarify your purpose for that day and achieve it, learn new ways to achieve it, when done, go into details and improve it to fulfill your new needs.
Almost there life……do not escape, face it!!
