INDOLENCE the foremost enemy of the Human being is just a pipe-dream
By GAURAV SHARMA
Indolence means inactivity – we don’t want to do the task just because it seems boring or lengthy. But it may be the sign of Fatalism. Being a fatalist one will be totally inactive (depends upon fate) & just think about the future without doing anything for it, which is not possible & so we need to overcome the fatalism. Indolence is the foremost evil of a human, because of this indolence he does not sharp his sword, and a warrior without a sharpen sword can’t fight. Now you are thinking why I’m talking about sword & warriors, actually our today’s life is like war where we have to fight against evil (like laziness, crankiness, stress, jealousy etc.) for which we need the sword, Sword of a pure mind (such as Divine Love, Peace, happiness which is constant or always increasing, understanding not opinion, presence not appearance). The nature has given you the response-ability (responsibility) the proof of which is the good feeling which you felt when you thought about this war & assume yourself a worrier an Spiritual Warrior. Nature wants that you should take this responsibility to make your body and mind so trained that the evils would not affect you at all. By ‘nature’ I mean your true nature, nature of a human; i am not talking about nature of your body and mind (mood, variable, opinion, thinking, physical appearance etc.).
Now back to the point of INDOLENCE, indolence is the foremost evil for spiritual warrior, because of this indolence he does not sharp his sword, and a warrior without a sharpen sword can’t fight. A warrior need to break his indolence as soon as possible and start work with enthusiasm and predefined goal, but let us understand why there is indolence. Basically it is not there just you have assumed it as it is there. Otherwise suppose you are feeling lazy but at the very instant you heard that you are selected for a job with a handsome package, where did the indolence went? It means every demon lies inside the mind in the form of an error program and this error program is running in a loop because of your false assumption that the given task is boring and there are some functions which support your false assumption and make you feel the laziness or indolence, these functions base there operation on your input by ‘input’ I mean whatever you take in via ears, eyes, nose, mouth and combination with the help of mind. It does not mean that you have to control your input, we can’t control the input to come but we can filter it before it enters in the subconscious.
There is one saying “see what others are seeing but think what others are not thinking”. So how can I kill this enemy? Before we have an action plan for killing this demon let us understand what basic law of nature can help us. The law is “THERE IS NOTHING LIKE NOTDOING ,WHEN YOU ARE NOT DOING ANY THING THEN ALSO YOU ARE DOING THE TASK OF NOTDOING” and another is that thinking and feeling is also a ‘doing’. This simple law can help you to overcome Indolence & also your fatalist behavior.
