Every single day, all of us are a little closer to Enlightenment. Well... at least one day closer! 😎
The journey, of course, has its own Snakes and Ladders.
The snakes are our greed, hatred, dishonesty, cruelty, ego and other actions driven by ignorance.
The ladders are compassion, kindness, meditation, wisdom, selfless service and helping others without expecting anything in return.
Every good thought and deed helps us grow. Every selfish act or indulgence pulls us back.
And here's the interesting bit: In many Indian philosophical traditions, the journey towards liberation isn't confined to one lifetime. The cycle of birth and rebirth continues, with Karma playing its part.
So don't get disheartened if Enlightenment seems lakhs of days away. There isn't a mathematical scorecard or a fixed number of good deeds to complete. It's a journey of gradually shedding ignorance, attachments and ego.
The destination may be distant, but every little step towards wisdom matters.
So, as they say...
KEEP WALKING! 😎
When you write a story ensure there are no logical slip ups!
Here are two contradictory statements
"I've been saving for this trip for almost two years.”
“He called me three months ago. He apologized for everything, and we started talking again.”
Visa Officer: “Why do you want to travel to the United States?”
Applicant: “My elder brother has invited me to attend his wedding. He wants the whole family to be there.”
Visa Officer: “Your brother lives in America?”
Applicant: “Yes. He's been living there for almost fifteen years.”
Visa Officer: “And you've never visited him?”
Applicant: “No, sir. I've never had the opportunity.”
Visa Officer: “What does your brother do?”
Applicant: “He's an engineer. He works for a construction company in Texas.”
Visa Officer: “Who is sponsoring your trip?”
Applicant: “I'm paying for everything myself. I've been saving for this trip for almost two years.”
Visa Officer: “How long do you intend to stay?”
Applicant: “Three weeks. I have a business to return to.”
The officer looked through the applicant's documents before asking another question.
Visa Officer: “Your brother has offered you accommodation at his house?”
Applicant: “Yes, sir.”
Visa Officer: “I noticed something interesting. Your brother's invitation letter says this wedding is particularly important to him. Why?”
The applicant went quiet for a moment.
Applicant: “Because he almost didn't invite me.”
Visa Officer: “What do you mean?”
A smart fridge will ping your phone if you leave the door open.
Our 30-year-old apartment's low-tech lift simply keeps shouting, "Please close the door!" until it's actually closed. 😁
And why the heck can't the fridge do the same instead of taking the hi-tech mobile notification route?
Sometimes, technology needs to get smarter by becoming a little less smart! 😎

Fascinating and unfathomable, the depths humans can explore beneath the sea!
Last month, China's new drillship Meng Xiang pulled up rock from 4.9 km below the sea surface.
That was only a rehearsal. The real goal: drill through the ocean floor into Earth's mantle, a boundary humans have never crossed.
This week’s #SundayScience unpacks the engineering and the stakes
