Juggling the Ups and Downs of Life
Yoga and Total Health
|May 2025
Keeping our balance during good times and bad times
Life is full of ups and downs. A big wave comes in the ocean and if you are not standing firmly, you will fall down. You will get up, but in the meantime, another wave will come. If it is a small wave, you will jump over it and enjoy, but if it is a big one, you will fall down again.
Three-fourths of the earth's surface is water. Symbolically, there is less firm ground and much more water with many waves. Even on land, the winds keep blowing, cyclones and rainfall keep coming. This is Nature (Prakriti) and along with it are the ups and downs of our life. They all happen together.

भगवद्गीता से सीख: असली जीवन ही श्रेष्ठ है।
हमारी देश की संस्कृति में अनेक गुणों का, जीवन मूल्यों का वर्णन किया गया है जिनसे हम एक अच्छा, सच्चा और कुशल जीवन व्यतीत कर सकते हैं। इनका पालन करने के अनेक मार्ग भी हमारे सामने रखे गए हैं। और कई लोग ऐसे होते भी हैं जो पूरे मन से इन मूल्यों को मानते हैं। लेकिन कुछ लोग ऐसे भी होते हैं जो इन मूल्यों को दिल से मानने की जगह बस मानने का दिखावा कर रहे होते हैं। आइए देखते हैं कि ऐसे दिखावटी व्यवहार के बारे में श्रीकृष्ण क्या कहते हैं।
