________________ What is Life ? different than life as an old man. As a child your life was different, the number of people and activities that you were connected with were less, maybe only fifty. Now, you may be in touch with five thousand people and doing various activities. The toys and games that you played as a child were also different. Now, as an adult you play different games and with different toys. These activities cause affection, aversion, jealousy, deceit, obsession - resulting in binding of karma. We have to bear the effects of these karmas, whether good or bad and keep rotating in the cycle of life and death!!! Such is our life. Is this the way we want to live? Days, months and years have passed whilst following this routine. Neither we have realized nor will we realize how time will pass and our life will come to an end. We do think about our mundane routine life but it's only for a while and then we are back to the grind! Just once, pray that, “Oh God! I am involved in these worldly activities, I am not aware how much I will walk on the right path shown by you, but once, just once, open my eyes and make me walk in the right direction.” We are running, but with our eyes closed. Hence, we do not know in which direction we are heading ... We are living our routine life, running with the time, but what do we gain after running so much?
