Attention Vs Tension 

 HARI Vs HURRY

- Swami Vimurtananda

A monk was traveling in a car with a devotee, Anand. Looking outside he was observing people, who were moving around hastily on the roads.

                

Anand: “What are you thinking, Swamiji?”

                

Monk: “Thinking if I can define and differentiate between worldly life and spiritual life in one sentence”. Anand became curious for the response.

                

Monk: “If one always have tension, is in HURRY, lives without any goal - pursues worldly life; but if one pays attention to be always with divine HARI with great goals leads spiritual life”.

                

Anand applied a sudden brake as a symbolic appreciation of the monk’s response!
