Wisdom by Spiritual leader and Art of Living Founder Sri
Sri Ravi Shankar
Q: There are so many attractions and distractions but still the youth is so bored.
Youth is bored and it’s their fortune. If
they were satisfied then growth would have stopped. When they are bored then
the quest comes in them. They are not satisfied with the things available
around. And this is the stage when they can take a step to look within, a leap
in their inner journey, a step towards spirituality. An interest in higher
growth gets kindled when you are bored with things around. When you find source
of joy within, then obviously everything around is also reflecting the same
source of joy, then you find interest in everything. Continuous bombardment of
senses by stimuli can cause inertia. Inertia is boredom, is a form of boredom.
Again when prana level goes up, you move from inertia to enthusiasm.
Q: Dear Guruji, I noticed that I am unconsciously always comparing
myself with others. Tell me how to stop it please?
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar:
If you are unconsciously stopping it, it will
unconsciously stop also. Why do you consciously want to stop? Let it be. Got
it? Your trying to stop it consciously becomes a problem. You get stuck. So
just relax. Just relax and continue more meditation, more Advanced and Silence programmes. These will de-program you from that thing.
