Early

“Here”


Man and woman want and like to be on time for any appointment or prefer to be early to keep any appointment. Knowledge informs man and woman that they can be either on time or early for any appointment.

Knowledge informs man and woman that they have the capacity to be either on time for any appointment or can be early to keep any appointment, unless unavoidable circumstances prevent it.

When man and woman are either not on time or unable to be early to keep any appointment, they are frustrated, disappointed and angry with themselves and for reasons responsible for the inability to keep any appointment.

Wisdom, regarding being on time for any appointment or early for any appointment, however, is free of any emotions that usually accompany the knowledge to be on time or early for any appointment.

What is the wisdom regarding ‘early’, is the question?

Wisdom reveals to man and woman that any appointment is in the moment in life. Wisdom reveals to man and woman that any appointment happens in the moment in life.

Knowledge takes the moment in life for granted. Wisdom reveals that any moment in life is precious and does not take any moment in life for granted. Wisdom reveals that every moment in life is precise and does not take any moment in life for granted.

Wisdom reveals that what is within any moment in life is precise. Wisdom reveals that only a single movement is present within any moment in life. Wisdom reveals that the single movement within any moment in life is precise as well. 

Wisdom reveals that, besides the single movement that is present in any moment in life, there cannot be any other movement than the movement present in any particular moment.

Wisdom reveals that the timing of the movement in any particular moment is precise as well. Wisdom reveals that the movement in any particular moment is, therefore, never early.

Wisdom reveals that unavoidable circumstances that prevent man and woman to be on time for an appointment or to be early for an appointment is the precise movement in the moment in life.

Wisdom reveals that the intelligence in life manifests the moment and also the precise movement, including the precise timing of the movement in any moment in life. 

Therefore, man and woman with wisdom of ‘early’ are always calm, patient and trust every moment in life. They are grateful for the precise and precious moment in life.

The enlightened understand that every moment in life is precious for every individual in life.

Editor’s Note:
‘Please give me a moment to finish reading this article.’ We are so familiar with the use of the word ‘moment’ in our daily communications to indicate a short, but imprecise period of time that we miss its secret. Its use indicates that man is in control of life, that man is the doer. This implies that he or she is responsible for whatever can be done in a moment. This burden of responsibility weighs heavily on each one of us. This is such an irony of the intelligence of life, for man has never been able, is not able and never will be able to accomplish whatever happens within a moment. Understanding the secret of ‘moment’ is the gift of wisdom generously and compassionately offered in these articles by Dr Shankar. Enjoy your own freedom each and every moment in daily life.
