2. More often than not, restlessness is not related to
any particular want, though; it may be compounded
with hunger, thirst, insecurity, sexual deprivation,
and so on.
This is why I complain (and keep doing so) round
about everything such as price rise, water shortage,
load shedding of electricity and hike in bus fare. At
home also I keep on grumbling or complaining
about almost everything.
Sports, physical exercise, athletics, gymnastics,
acrobatics, swimming and other forms of creative
entertainments such as crafts, music, trekking,
painting, dancing etc do not; and for that matter
nothing whatsoever, provides fulfillment to me.
What is the reason?
3. Restlessness is like enormous power that has no
direction. It agitates but does not lead! It irritates
but does not help deicide. It excites but does not
orchestrate.
My restlessness becomes worse when I am
engrossed in the conflict between ideas and
preachings of morality, ethics, religions, ideologies
on the one hand and the actual reality that
apparently disproves all sanity and upholds only
barbaric and devilish elements on the other. It is
therefore aggravated and converted into anguish,
agitation and rage and gets either expressed into
suicidal activities or gets transformed into violent
activities.
I have to understand this immense though
potentially beneficial restlessness and channellize it
and guide it, through the holistic development in
every field of personal and social life!
4. But it is also mandatory on my part that even if I
am provided with the best of everything my
restlessness would not subside! It still needs
specific efforts on my part to culminate it in the
decisive and visionary activity, which is called
SWADHARMA. Hence apart from (or instead of)
giving vent to my grievances and blame others, I
have to work for its metamorphosis, through
NAMASMARAN, which is said to be the sure
solution.
