There is no cause for worry in God’s world….
Good morning friends,
Sometimes we begin to unnecessarily worry,
About what is happen to loved ones and us;
It appears as if the future, to us, is blurry,
Fear of the unknown goads us to make fuss.
Actually nothing is unknown or unexpected,
Everything by God has already been directed.
Many times we pretend that we don’t know,
And try to convert our fear into hope;
“Sorry, God, in responding to it I was slow,
I was actually preparing for how to cope.”
So, where does worrying come into it?
It’s a known fact that we have to admit.
God can give and He can take away too,
Worrying is non-understanding of this fact;
We already know what exactly for us is due,
And in most cases we also know its impact.
“God, I accept your command with humility,
Of worrying, I already know the futility.”
….since nothing is ever unexpected.

I have done a long stint in the Indian Navy that lasted for nearly thirty seven years; I rose as far as my somewhat rebellious and irreverent nature allowed me to. On retirement, in Feb 2010, the first thing that occurred to me, and those around me, was that I Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (you will find an article with this title in this blog) and hadn't lost all my noodles and hence thought of a blog titled 'This 'n That'. I later realised that every third blog is called 'This 'n That' and changed the name to 'Sunbyanyname'. I detest treading the beaten track. This blog offers me to air 'another way' of looking at things. The idea is not just to entertain but also to bring about a change. Should you feel differently, you are free to leave your comments. You can leave comments even when you agree and want to share your own experience about the topic of the blog post. Impudent or otherwise, I have never been insousciant and I am always concerned about the betterment of community, nation and the world. I hope the visitors of this blog would be able to discern it.

WORRY is a Rocking Horse,
Keeps Us going BUT
Gets us nowhere

Ravi PaaJi, I am reminded of a Bhajan my Mataji often recited …
.
अब सौंप दिया इस जीवन का, सब भार तुम्हारे हाथों में
है जीत तुम्हारे हाथों में, और हार तुम्हारे हाथों में II
मेरा निश्चय बस एक यही, एक बार तुम्हे मैं पा जाऊं
अर्पण कर दूँ दुनिया भर का, सब प्यार तुम्हारे हाथों में II
मुझ में तुझ में बस भेद यही, मैं नर हूँ, तुम नारायण हो
मैं हूँ संसार के हाथों में, संसार तुम्हारे हाथों में II
जब तक संसार का कैदी रहूँ , निष्काम भाव से कर्म करूँ
मेरे अवगुण दोष समर्पित हों, भगवान तुम्हारे हाथों में II
जो जग में रहूँ, तो ऐसे रहूँ, ज्यों जल में कमल का फूल रहे
और अंत समय में प्राण तजू, निराकार तुम्हारे हाथों में II
यदि मानुष का फिर जनम मिले, तेरे चरणों का मै पुजारी बनू
इस पूजक की एक एक रग का, सब तार तुम्हारे हाथों में II
.
The lyrics above are different from normal …
I loved the flow sequence – The Resolve, Karma, Lifestyle,
and Self Surrender, Self Submission
.
DO THE BEST FOR THE DO-ABLE
AND LEAVE THE REST TO HIM – WHY WORRY.
