Poem
Moment a desire arises we become joyous Mind starts ruminating We are hooked on to it What began as a mere thought Now controls our mind, actions Mind thinks about non fulfillment of desire our happiness is ruined Many youngsters aim for high marks in exams These dreams are encouraged by parents They make mind restless, take away concentration Tension to perform leads to nervousness, memory loss, trembling hands, lack of confidence BP, depression and much more... Our life is destined since birth I know of astrologers who can predict the future An astrologer predicted my future Whatever he stated came true This proves thinking and dreaming are futile acts When we work, our mind should be mindlessly engaged in the task at hand Complete, absolute concentration is the key to perfection If we think of future while working, our productivity reduces When a job is badly done, results cannot be guaranteed Thinking beyond present moment is not intelligent living Dream is a non-existent entity It's fulfillment depends on many factors beyond our control Life is ever-changing, everything is transient Present is reality, hundred percent surety Just enjoy it fully, you will be happy surely Do your job with dedication and sincerity But without any thoughts about results Mind at the task in hand gives peace and bliss That's what meditation is all about Desires merely exist in mind, Desireless mind is tranquil mind Enjoy life, Don't allow desires to ruin it It is not worth it 30.06.2021 For A broken person, Faraz Ajmal References from Bhagvad Gita: BG 2.62: While contemplating on the objects of the senses, one develops attachment to them. Attachment leads to desire, and from desire arises anger. BG 2.63: Anger leads to clouding of judgment, which results in bewilderment of the memory. When the memory is bewildered, the intellect gets destroyed; and when the intellect is destroyed, one is ruined. BG 2.50: One who prudently practices the science of work without attachment can get rid of both good and bad reactions in this life itself. Therefore, strive for Yog, which is the art of working skillfully (in proper consciousness) BG 2.47: You have a right to perform your prescribed duties, but you are not entitled to the fruits of your actions. Never consider yourself to be the cause of the results of your activities, nor be attached to inaction BG 2.48: Be steadfast in the performance of your duty, O Arjun, abandoning attachment to success and failure. Such equanimity is called Yog
