Own your life... Yes we all think we do own our lives...
In a country like India, when KARMA is spoken about... Karma itself means we understand the responsibility of our acts and actions..... In such a scenario... Most of us are deprived and lack confidence to consider this life as theirs....
The funny thing I notice is that often all those who haven't had the courage to lead life their way put restrictions on others to not take a charge either... Likewise some who have rebelled their way out look forward to others rebelling like them....
All I have understood from my life and observations from others lives is that ULTIMATELY, whether we act bold or cold we all do things upto a limit we can handle....
Life doesn't come with a manual.... No scripture can or is able to control humans except instilling fears and superstitions.... Liberal human soul cannot be confined to limits and do s and don't s.. Rather these limitlessness is what nutures this soul.. Despite this known truth many of us can't take the charge of our lives... We often pretend that someone else is holding our life strings and we are mere puppets...
I can buy this in a way where physically things happen with humans at social and emotional plane which leaves them perplexed and wondering as to what happened to them and that's how their life shapes up.....
Events and episodes are probably not under control but perception of these into life shaping is definitely one can take a charge for...
We often do not feel the liberation as our individual personalities have hampered that wiring which would allow the smooth flow of freedom into us without guilt or fear...
For an instance... A parent would never enjoy completely if they seek happiness in a place where they are alone as they would be haunted by their children's happiness being replaced over... Now.. The very fact... No individual who is deprived of fun can make others happy is easily forgotten as one gets into parenthood... Like this every role an individual plays can prevent their liberty to freedom if there are strings attached at a very very deeper levels... These people blame the system but are unable to detach themselves from their roles and then feel miserable to get victimized under set rules...
Thus, people do own their lives but very few with the wealth of strong mindset can maintain this life to its fulfillment and can take that charge of leading their lives on their terms....
Its better said than done... I am too striving to walk on the path to free myself of attachments which bind me, control me and prevent me from my spiritual growth... It is a practice of attachment with detachment that is needed to evolve from the worldly pit....
