Slow is fast !

What space does to size is what speed of mind does to speed of action. Slower the mind gets closer we get to reality and have better understanding of reality; hence move faster in it.

Slow down and everything you are chasing will come around and catch you. - John De Paola

As we slow down, we get liberated of the burden of doing, instead, things start happening for us. A thinking trap is to slow down with an intention to see things move fast. Unfortunately, nature is smarter than we can be and returns such pretentious acts with ‘the law of reverse effect’.

Just ‘slow down’, for its own sake. It is a beautiful experience to live the entire moment in present, to extract the juice of life from one moment at a time; to live it in its completeness. It is strange but as we slow down in the mind the time slows down with us.

Heart-Break, Head-Brake !

The expectation for future, usually built over time, seems the only logical outcome of the present set of events to the perception-blinded mind. The dimension of choice, that every human has a right to exercise, keeps rearranging the construct of future. This dynamic path could be, at times, beyond comprehension due to the vast and diverse possibilities of choices available. The appearance of reality tears apart the expectation that the mind is attached to, thus, resulting in a confused state and leaving a huge pile of uncertainty.

Disillusionment of an image, usually known as a heart-break, seems to be a result of concepts built in the head; The effect on the emotional center must be just a result and not the cause.

The ancient eastern mysticism has regarded ‘not feeding the mind with anticipation’ as a crucial non-action to settle in the state of equanimity.
