Paradox, Contradiction, Ambiguity … a measure of enlightenment

 

Paradox, Contradiction,  Ambiguity …

             a measure of enlightenment

 

Over the last few weeks I have been meeting old classmates and a few close Associates. Predictably discussions covered many areas , importantly one’s health and well-being.

      I have now understood that it is very difficult to get anyone  listen to your source of happiness . Even the closest of   friends turns to other topics tactfully. God seems to be the only one  willing to listen & savour  your happiness.

On the other hand   everyone listens attentively, with full eagerness to hear what is being said ,even if  you are sharing your sorrow in hushed tones with the person  sitting next to you.. And before you can say Huh! the group  transforms itself into a committee of good Samaritans & engages  in profound debate on steps that could be taken to.address the cause of your distress

Therefore, is it not logical  to believe  that one should share his delight & glory with the Almighty and distress with people ?

Unfortunately we do exactly the opposite  by Rushing to the nearest temple  &  pouring out our misery to all 33 crore Gods and  seeking out  even long lost friends and associates to share our .Jubilation

😁😁😁 thats a good observation . But nothing amiss . We have to believe that humans are inherently good , caring , sympathetic and want to help others . Hence the avalanche of advices . When happiness is shared , what more can anyone say beyond “very good” ! ….as for the Gods , its all the same , as they are not expected to show any reaction . 😛
