Buddhism – the way to balancing thoughts
Life is a journey. Not everything goes as we wish. Our BP rises and falls. There seems to be a surprise at every corner. So what really helps us gain some stability in life.
It is quite natural to get tired because of the uncertainties of life. It is commonplace to get tired after trying to perform something at the same level. The Best Example is Tina Turner. The kind of songs she sang and the way she performed required high energy and energy is form. It is not in the same state every time. So one can’t go on and on. The pitch and volume with which she sang, is opposite to the calmness and peace she sought later in life.
Life flows. It goes high and comes down below the sea level. It creates ripples and no ripples etc. Tina Turner was singing of her desires in her life. Her desire for love and better treatment which was lacking in her life. It comes to her later. Through loss comes peace is the cruelty of life.
That’s why Buddha talked of acceptance, orienting oneself towards truth.
