On
spring cleaning!
The edges along the walls are dark (smudged). I cleaned them too as I cleaned each room.
Result:
The room looked bright.
The
light seemed to reflect more.
Felt
light and happy.
Effect
on the physical body though was painful. All the scrubbing, mopping and all is
very strenuous. My body was in sheer pain.
But the heart was dancing with joy. One example of “When the body and mind cry for what it lost, the soul rejoices for what it gained”.
At such a moment when someone asks me “How are you?”, I reply
“zindagi mein gham
hai,
Gham
mein dard hai
Dard
mein mazaa ahi aur
Maze
mein hum hai”
and in that sadness there is pain
in that pain is fun
and I am having fun in life"
Meaning there is enjoyment even in pain and suffering of life.
Normally
people associate and identify with only the physical body and sometimes with
the mind. So they suffer as per the physical body’s state of being. If it
cries, people cry, if it is happy, then they ‘think’ they are happy.
But
a ‘sadhak’ is one who knows he is not a ‘physical entity’. He knows he
experiences through various other mediums too. So, he is aware of this
phenomena – “When the body cries, the soul dances”.
