Chapter 2 verse 22
“Just as a man casts off his worn out clothes and
puts on new ones, so also the embodied self casts off it’s worn out bodies and
enters new ones”
Every day
there is an opportunity to begin fresh thinking that this is the first day of a
new life. We are blessed with a body which is functioning (we did wake up didn’t
we?), a mind which can actually think that it is a new day and we are still
here. Doing this we are able to simulate in our mind the journey of life and
death to some extent. This way just in a week, we will have 7 lives and in a
month 30 lives. What if we learnt every day to be better and be a new person
and the only baggage we carry from previous day is our tendencies which will
get cleaner by the day? This is an amazing way to experience the cycle of life
and death in a realistic way. Since a lot of us don’t pay attention to days,
weeks, months and years of our life. This process might shed light on a more
aware living. Krishna is throwing light on the impermanence of the body in this
verse but I went somewhere with my thoughts. Going to just keep it there! You
are in my mind, body and soul. You are asking us to lead an intentional life!
Karishye Vachanam Tava..Will do your biding!
