Time is fleeting every moment. |
There are
many sayings about time. No one can deny its importance in his/her life. God
has created this world for a reason and if we closely observe the nature, we
would find plenty of things that come on time.
The sun, moon, stars and planets continue their motion in specific orbits and in fixed times. Sun rises from east at fixed time on every day and then sets in the west. Similarly a child is born in this world and dies at its time. If we follow the principles of God we will be successful. The time is the most important factor of all. If we abide by it, we can never be penalized. Take an example of our daily life.

Life and
Death are not in anyone's hands. They are things that just happen every time
and with everyone. Same is the case with time. Most of the times we take it for
granted that there is always plenty of time. Due to this perhaps we indulge in
various activities, which are a wholesale waste of time.
The clock is
always ticking. The seconds keep on ticking just like busy ants. The ants keep
themselves always busy by always hunting for food everywhere. Similarly the
seconds always keep

on ticking to attain short-term goals of making a minute
with 60 ticks. After reaching a milestone of a minute the second's hand of a
clock don't take a break, but start afresh for another round of 60 ticks. Then
take it minute by minute and inadvertently reach a quarter of an hour, and hour
and then a day. They always focus on the smaller targets- that is a minute and
the bigger aim of the clock itself gets fulfilled. That's why the minutes hand
have to work less, as the seconds hand does most of the running around. The
minute hand just has to make 60 movements on a clock dial. The hours hand is
the luckiest of the lot. It just moves for 12 times in an hour. But the seconds
hand moves for 3600 times around the dial for the same hour!
Parallel to
this, in our life to we never realize that we have lots to do. Between every
big task we can always find enough time to fit in a plethora of smaller tasks.
If you are waiting for a train at the station, you can always start
contemplating on God or Guru mentally or rather listen to sermons or hymns on
your mobile or iphones. While traveling in the bus too one can find enough time
to at least skim through the previous days notes.
Be like the
clock. Always keep on ticking by involving yourself in various things that help
increase your skills and purify your mind with positive thoughts. These small
knowledge and experience modules will perhaps one day take you to your bigger
goal some day. They say "Time and Tide waits for no man". If so, now
stop staring at the screen and utilize your time effectively!

ReplyDeleteThis is a grea blog on time management. we are always managing our time and spending it in worldly activities with barely taking out time to Remember God and Love God unconditionally. This does not happen overnight but with practice, time and HIS GRACE. However if we just start with 10% (2hrs) a day dedicating to GOD with our mind we will start seeing a marked difference in our lives. you can get more information on this at http://www.jkyog.org/yoga-and-meditation/subtle-body-relaxation
