Punahpratyayacha aanand i.e. The ‘Pleasure’ of re-learning a lesson !

A colleague M is getting married soon and so the girlie gang at office took her out to lunch. How we ate ! All of us were stuffed and miserable about having to go back to office and work. We hadn’t ordered too much food. I think its because we also drank a lot of water alongside lunch that we felt stuffed. The summer is oppresive.


After we returned, I was thinking…actually I ought to have paid a little attention while eating. I could have avoided over-eating. But we were all together for a happy occasion and we were having great fun together. So I wasn’t alert to my system, which, I am sure, must have given me the signals at the appropriate time. This indulgence has now cost me :( I am feeling terribly lethargic and finding it very tough to finish my work.


I know that I always suffer whenever I allow myself to lose alertness, awareness to my internal physical and mental and emotional systems. And yet, I repeat my mistakes ! And suffer :( Serves me right !


“You will be taught the lesson repeatedly until you learn it completely”


Suffering brings wisdom !
