UNLOCK THE
INNER LOCKS
--A P ANAND
Nowadays people are suffering in
pains and pangs of life and afflicted in pensive mood and glum. None is perfect
and all are fallible. Our power of resistance has receded. We have,
unfortunately, locked the inner doors and windows of life by ourselves with
evil deeds and vices. The key for opening them is lost somewhere and the Master
Key is with Heavenly Father. We have entangled ourselves due to ignorance and
are totally paralyzed. We are ululating and smiting chests in distress created
by ourselves. A small kink (twist) can change the flow of our life, either way.
Mahatma Gandhi used to mutter these words, “Vaishnav jan ko tene kahiye, jo
peed paraee jane re (The one who realizes the pains of others, only deserves to
live pious life).”
Ego is the main road block in our life. It
creates hatred and separation. It clouds one’s vision/ hind sight. Ego and love
cannot co-exist.
In this murky scenario the only
guiding spark is our introspection and to take a deep dive in mind due to which
the answers are at hand. We should change our own attitude towards life instead
of changing others. Polishing and honing our own instincts with firm faith in
ourselves and God will result in enlightenment and self-realization. Love
removes many impediments, misunderstandings and aspiring and positive nature
will cause strong bond of universal brotherhood. Our endurance limit increases.
The tumbling and crumbling foundation of children should be strengthened. We
should do something good in life so that our name is etched permanently in the
annals of history.
We should release the tension of our
frayed nerves by fasting/ inner cleansing, evicting of vices and imbibing
virtues and noble ideals. We need washing our sins for purification not in holy
waters but by removing anger, peevishness, obstinancy, arrogance, pride,
isolation, stress, violence, pessimism, passion, discontentment, unnecessary
wealth accumulation and greed from our life. One gets rid of rancor by
forgiving and forgetting the faults of others. Don’t waste your time and duck
others’ views in arguments. Rather take the recourse of middle path or “Shut
mouth.com (communication).”
Faith, hope and love can solve our
many intricate problems. Our trajectory to achieve life’s goals will improve
with virtues and divine activities. Let the serene rays of love enter you and
let the garden in your heart with fragrance bloom fully. Unalloyed, platonic
and divine love towards God, parents and elders will bring real extreme bliss (“Satchitananda”)
in our life. Love and spirituality recognize no boundaries. Humanity with mutual
trust and harmonious relations will, undoubtedly, bring peace, calm and
happiness. Let us give a trial to these suggestions of elixir of life
improvement!
