Idle Pursuits leave US Bankruptcy in Every Aspect
How many times, have you spoken on the phone, speaking ill of others. Or talked about a friend of yours to another
friend. Sometimes even talked ill of your own mother or boss, or in-laws? All
the time, right. What’s the big deal you may ask? Here’s the big deal, apart
from being considered to be the biggest sin in our religious text, this is the
number 1 time killer and even peace killer. Your inner peace dies instantly,
being replaced with negativity and frustration. Wait a minute, Sin, what the
hell is that? Never heard of this word in a decade, or maybe your entire lifetime?
Yeah, the current generation or
those in their 20s or 30s may not have heard of it. But people born earlier and
hitting their 40s and 50s would definitely know this word. In the last 2 3 decades,
the right and wrong, virtues and vices have all been blurred. It’s ultimately “do
as you please” mode for the majority since 2 3 decades. Earlier it used to be,
listen to your elders, don’t talk ill, respect time and what not. A morally
obliged society, and we used to gel really well with this mindset. Now, it’s
each one to its own. And we have insomnia, depression, anxiety, stress, anger,
frustration, impatience, and a long list of problems.
Doing things the right way and opting
to be on the right side, doesn’t hurt all that badly, is what we need to
understand. A society should be high on morals, and not on GDP or economy. A
sin is a sin, whether you are a forward thinker or backward. You are bound to
die, however forward you may be. You two are, going to be affected by laws of nature. And these laws say there is no greater sin than gossiping. So what
is such a big deal, here? Turns out, when you talk ill of others, you are actually absorbing all their negative karmas and negative
energy and getting into a vicious circle. Imagine, your karma balance going
reverse when you are actually not doing anything evil. So if you are doing
nothing to increase your karma balance, and these activities are on. Won’t you
turn bankrupt one day just by backbiting? So why would you do it? For
pleasure, but is it really worth for momentary pleasure and let me tell you, it
even brings guilt a moment later though.
Baba Ram Rahim even exhorts that
even though gossiping or backbiting may be very tempting, but giving in, to
this temptation, you are even putting your generations into this vicious
circle. In fact, we need to watch out for every activity of ours. Our DNA is
recording every information and you never know which act of yours gets recorded
and gets passed on to your generations. Negativity, small talk, falling prey to
petty arguments, insecurity, jealousy, you need to guard yourself against all
these evils. They do more harm than seems. Guarding your property is not that a
big deal, guarding your own thoughts, actions are imperative for a healthy mind,
body, and soul. In fact, the best would be to ignore every negative thought that
comes up, every temptation to talk to somebody to discuss situations,
temptation to put someone down.
Each of these is killers of your inner peace
and tranquility and rob you of your precious time, which could have been
invested in doing something great. Indulge in true form of meditation, as
taught by Baba Ram Rahim Guru Ji. Meditating on God’s words, one can find real god
within himself. No more running around and doing various rituals, or practices
to impress God. Your virtues and thoughtful actions, in turn, impress him. Think
good for all; pray for everybody, these are the actions that increase your
karma balance. Baba Ram Rahim Ji has even asked his followers to meditate
within on God’s words, while doing chores or traveling or any activity you
take up. This meditation will save you from all the Games that your mind plays
against you, giving various thoughts and negativities.
