CELEBRATIONS OF FESTIVALS.. HOW SHOULD THEY BE LIKE?
When the devotees decided to celebrate His birthday, the Great Saint smiled and said,
"Why not celebrate the Day of Realization instead of the birthday?"
Seen in the above context, any celebration of my joyous expression should ever try to concentrate
As much on the higher aspects of life embedded deep within me wherein
I care for and accommodate
My next man in particular and
My next living being in general
Rather than
Concentrate totally on the mundane aspects of life ever accommodating 'my own'..
With such a firm mind, If I carefully start looking at myself the second time of every moment, the first time invariably being my own interest of over flowing emotions within me,
I sure find certain cushion with me which can accommodate the said activity..
Then why not straight away make use of that cushion
In conducting all my functions and festivals in the right way
Instead of making Mother Nature suffer silently myself carrying reduced respect towards my Original Mother hurting Her deep within and thus celebrate all such functions and festivals feeling myself superior?
Thus my festivals of today laced with
The good and the pleasant
Should be looked at a second time myself carefully distinguishing between the
Good part of it and equally
Not so good part of it
And thus remain useful to me as well next to me..
No doubt, human expression is continuously undergoing change
Ever trying to trace the good thru' understanding the truth part of life and
Constantly subdued by the pleasant by the side
Here,
Old may be Gold but that
Old too was associated with cruelty
And
The improved present day celebrations are

Ever set in the direction of truthful living but
Equal number of times are dampened by the associated pleasantries of life..
Ultimately it's
My constant alertness and dedication alone that brings back me to the right track sooner or later and makes my life truly worth living!
