Comparing Brings Discontent

Let go of “me”, “mine” versus “yours”

- Dr. Hansaji J. Yogendra

Comparing Brings Discontent

Yoga talks about good qualities like good thinking, good feelings, good behaviour. These qualities bring much peace of mind. But whenever and wherever "me/mine" comes in, comparison also comes in and peace is lost.

I often narrate a joke that a person opened a sweet shop and wrote on the board outside “The Best Shop in this Lane”. Another person also started a shop and wrote “The Best Shop in this Area”. The comparison started here; from “lane” it became “area”. Now, the sweet shop owner thought that if he has written “area” then I will have to write something else. So, he rewrote, “The Best Shop in Santa Cruz”. The other shop owner wrote “The Best Shop in Bombay”; the sweet shop owner trumped with “The Best Shop in the Country”. The other shop owner replied by writing “The Best Shop in the World”, countered by the sweet shop owner’s “The Best Shop in the Universe”.

Now, how far can one go? We are bound to get stuck at some point. So, the second shop owner started thinking and after much deliberation wrote, “Better than the Opposite Shop”. So, the whole thing ended on the issue of “mine” and “yours”. The whole problem ultimately goes around and comes back to this same issue of “me” and “you”. So, until this “I” sense does not reduce, this kind of tension will always go on.

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।
