Time - Gone Forever, Never to Come Back Again

in #life6 years ago (edited)

Time is invaluable. While everything else in this universe can be assessed and assigned a value, time has never been assessed and never will be. Time could be assigned a value only if something is obtained in exchange for time.

Time can be likened to a fast moving stream. The stream flows continuously, not stopping for even a single second. The great and powerful men who have walked this earth have never been able to make it stop or obstruct its path. When Bhagwan Mahaveer was about to attain nirvana at Pawapuri, Indra came down from heaven and pleaded with him to add moments and extend his own life. Lord Mahaveer replied, "O! king of gods, this is impossible. One cannot stop the flow of time. My life is about to end. I can neither pause it nor prolong it. To do so is an impossible task for anyone, however powerful he might be."

Lord Mahaveer's reply to Indra is the absolute truth. All the wealth in this world cannot stop time, slow it down or hasten it up. Now that it is obvious that time is precious and that it will not wait for you, reap all the benefits that you possibly can by utilizing time wisely.

Days and nights fleet and fade, never to return. One who indulges in impiety and in useless pursuits during his days and nights wastes time. On the other hand, one who practises religion makes his time worthwhile.

Time is ‘Chintamani ratna’. Through this ratna, you can achieve all that you wish for. For, an idle mind is the devil’s workshop that sows the seeds of evil thoughts. He will keep his vices away from those who are alert and active. One can achieve a lot by utilizing the time allotted to him in the best possible way. Losing a single moment in time is worse than losing the Kohinoor diamond. That should convey how wisely time is to be utilized.

I remember an advice my Gaur Gopal Das Prabhu ji,

There are 4 things in life we can never recover.
A stone after it has been thrown into the valley
Words after they have been spoken
An opportunity once which is missed
And time, once it has gone......"

If we consider the average lifespan of a human today as 70 years. 70 X 12 = 840. Now that's how many months we have in our life to live in this world. If life is represented by a jar and those 840 months by marbles in the jar, then each year 12 marbles are being thrown out the jar. Look at how many marbles you still have in the jar to **make a difference, to stand apart, to leave a mark."

Someone great has said,

Utilize your time well and time will treat you well leading you to an overall sense of well-being.

For the marbles left in the jar, let us invest in taking care of our body, in nurturing our relationships, in discovering our purpose, our calling, our passion to enhance our professional growth, in cultivating a deep spiritual connect because at the end of the day we are all stories.. and let's make sure that ours is an inspiring one!
