Depression

 

The most debilitating and even dangerous thought is “Oh, what’s the use?” When we go through a lot and try and mend things … but that doesn’t happen, that final resignation is the worst. We can sink with this one thought.

The resulting depression can be the beginning of a gradual decline in health, first emotional and then, invariably physical.

“There is always a way out “is the way to go. If not this, something else good is round the corner! “Seek and we shall find” is a very prophetic and profound statement. Losing heart is not and should not be an option at all.

A Nomadic life

A nomadic life is such a free life in so many ways. They have little opportunity to get attached to places because they never stay long enough . And even the few days are spent mostly amidst nature. In tents. Yes, they seem to be a close knit community and therefore, attached to and protective of their own . Lifestyle diseases elude them at the best of times and worst of times. Happiness is not a special acquisition.

City bred folks have all kinds of issues. For sunlight , they have to specially go into the sunlight. For exercise to the gym. There is little informal meeting and more meeting friends with appointments. What happened to the word “spontaneity”? Not to mention the artifice that seems to set in , often as a part of the survival kit, among other pretensions.

Simple pleasures are simply not sought. Those days are gone when small town life also made frequent inroads into nature . And the five star culture has deprived people of the wonderful experience of living on farms and rustic life. Even farms have five star homes now.

Spoilt, aren’t we ? But more than that , we have lost out on the beauty of being one with nature. I guess, what you have never experienced, you don’t miss.

Pain

When there is a pain in any part of the body, it is so difficult to tell yourself," I am

Not the body but the soul". Pain medication s such an integral part of the human being!

Mental, emotional or physical.

Sometimes, I think, we preach all this which IS true. The body will perish etc. However, to graduate to the "Chidananda Roopam shivoham shivoham” is just very, very, very rare.
