An article from Dr.Sunil Bharbhuiya
True independence means to become free from all types of bondages.
Let us look for the barriers in finding tru freedom and its remedial measures.
1. Free from fear and favour :- self disciplined is the key.
2. Free from negativity: - A man generates 30,000 thoughts in a day. Of his 80% are thoughts of past, 15% are of future and just 5% thoughts are of present. Now we can see that 95% of our time goes to waste as past is dead and future is not yet born but still we live under its shadow. It is rightly said that the present time is like a [presentation (gift) or gold or hard cash and we should make best use of it. Those who learn from past mistakes, make realistic plans for the future and devote maximum time in the present, are the most successful people in the world.
3. Free from Waste:- We always complain of shortage of time yet we kill maximum time in gossiping, thinking wastes (doubts, confusions, build castle in air), and thinking about the mistakes of others. These are the top wasters. The key to stop wasteful thinking is to think positive and productive thoughts, engage in useful and beneficial tasks.
4. Free from vices:- Vices like lust, anger, attachment etc would run away automatically, the only thing required is determined & powerful thoughts, since day and night cannot co-exist.
