Finding Equilibrium in Live

Today I just want to post something I wrote on my FB yesterday which a good friend of mine replied and we continue sharing our perspective. Lately I am having trouble with my thoughts as it was wandering without any specific direction or focus. Sharing the conversation. Me: Continuous struggle between the mind that wanders every minute and coping with the realities of this world. ‎ Friend: "What is destined to happen will happen, do what you may to prevent it," Ramana wrote on his slate. " Whatever is destined not to happen will not happen, try as you may. The best course, therefore, is to remain silent." Me: Tat would be a pessimistic approach to life...I doubt Ramana would have told us not to do anything ; no action. I think we need to do what we can possibly do to make the difference but whatever the outcome is,let it be as what we are destined to.It is all about accepting the fruits of our action either positive or negative. Yet it is difficult for many to accept the results as we are bound by our desires and expectation that we place upon our labour! Friend: You got it right, "remain silent is not merely literal silence but silence of the mind," alleviating the conflict that you mentioned earlier. To aptly put it Arjuna's dilemma and Krishna Upadesham. Your actions are bound by your duty, do it right in the best possible way you can, with an anticipated outcome. If it happens, that would be great but if it doesn't don't fret let it go and don't let it linger. By the way you are no Arjuna and neither am I Krishna.........we are mere mortals trying to do the best!!! Om Tat Sat. Me: The last sentence is debatable, who we really are? It has been a continuous struggle for many of us to manage to juggle the tide of thoughts that flood our mind and the reality of live itself. Have anyone of you found a way to find an equilibrium and peace within and out!

Life

Have been busy lately with work and thus does not help me to write as I wish or could yet more important is that I guess I lost the steam for being a political blogger. The Malaysian political scenario is in total chaos with BN trying to cover up their past mistakes and in-competencies in managing the country. Corruption and mismanagement of the public's funds have been surfacing one after another yet the PM and his counter parts are in total denial. How could he make the change that the professes as he is also involved in a major scandal!Whether he was involved directly or indirectly his continuous silence does not help in public opinion. Bersih's demand for fair and clean electrol process did not go well with the current government and EC is painting a negative picture of Bersih with some dick heads doing butt dance and even conducting the last rites for the chairman. How uncouth these dunggus could behave. Why they did not do it in front of a Bumiputera Bersih front runner. Talk about racial undertones! The other old dog that has been barking loudly is a former PM, spewing venom every time he opens his mouth depicting the opposition is all wrong and there has been no wrong doing by himself or the current government when all facts are glaring at his eyes. maybe he is suffering from some strange eye infection which has a mind of its own; selective viewing. The opposition is not faraway from controversies either, they have their own internal politics brewing each one trying to be the champion in securing a seat for the next GE. Not to mentioned the rumour of mass wealth by some top guns in a party.so the political out-look does not look so good from my perspective as the public who want change finds it hard to digest the current situation. So I just want to focus on my life and hope I can dance in the rain!
