As I was watching a forward in
WhatsApp, where a girl was performing acrobatics on a man’s shoulder, standing
on her toes and swirling and lifting her legs in all directions with so much
ease and dexterity, I was astonished. But I also had an instant realization.
Life is all about being sincere in what you do. The state of effortlessness
itself is achieved through effort. The more and more people are able to inspire
the world, it is undoubtedly true that they have put in that much effort into
what they are doing. To be a better version of ourselves calls for a lot of
discipline.
Waking up before sunrise and
meditating is the best thing we can do to connect with divinity. How many of us
are able to wake up so early and that too consistently? Are we having our daily
appointment with God? All that we do is, admire a person who is able to do
that. This is because we are giving a choice to ourselves, and they are living
in a choiceless state. If the quality of
our life has to improve, the quality of our actions must improve. Sitting in
non-doing alone can bring dynamism to our doing. We can achieve emotional
equanimity, peace and happiness by sitting in non-doing. We will be enveloped by the Energy, which will carry us
through in life.
Exercising and Eating the right food
helps us to live a healthy life. Can we exercise at least five days a week? Can
we develop the will power to say “no” to what is not healthy? How much we
struggle to exercise regularly and to avoid tongue conscious food. It is a
discipline that we grow into. There is so much of conflict in our mind. Should
I exercise today? Just one day can I not eat what is tasty to the tongue? When
these questions are asked frequently, we develop wrong habits We lose our
health in course of time. All our money and time is spent at the hospital, when
we should be enjoying life and living life on our terms.
Who other than us will ensure our health,
growth and prosperity? We have to be sincere to ourselves to discover our
capabilities, our innate goodness, the divinity within us, the humane qualities
in us, the healthy individual that we can be, the success that we can achieve,
in short, the holistic life that we can live. Another name for discipline is,
sincerity!
