Have You Eaten This Rasgulla!!!!

"Have you eaten this rasgulla" said this art of living teacher during the course...

I sitting there in the audience was left wandering what a mundane question but what it lead to was some amazing knowledge which even to this day amazes me, excites me and the simplicity of me sometimes scares me...

Anyways back to the question & knowledge

"Yes" said the audience in chorus...
He said "Did you hear me right, I said Did you have this rasgulla"
All of again went "Yes"....

Then he said "You have would have had several rasgullas up untill now, but I am sure you would not have had this one"...he then went on...

This what happens in our lives as well. Our memory is so strong it removes the newness of an event and just overpowers our thought process with the impressions from the past...this in turn takes away the enthusiasm from our lives making everything a drag. I guess this what Robin Sharma meant when he says looking at life with(out) filters.

The essence of spirituality is of being able to retain this feeling of newness...thus fill our lives with joy enthusiasm. I guess this feeling of newness is also the key to brightness u c in a childs eyes, the smile on his face and the energy in his actions.

Well this knowledge really did strike a chord with me and I hope it does with u as well...By no means am I saying I am doing it 100% but it was jsut one of those things I thought I would share..

Anyways do put in ur comments...that is all for now

Cheers
SMC
