Can We Actually Teach Someone.. the “Art of Living” ?
In 2022, the universe is in different ‘Universe of Problems’, well the problems refers to diverse kinds and domains. In such era of AI, VR, Covid-19, and Riots, the global society is seeking for a support in the form of ‘Art of Living’.
The question arises.. Can We Actually Teach Someone.. “Art of Living” ?
Well, all the possible responses are welcomed and appreciated as people can think and answer to this question differently with their different mindsets. That is the reason that above mentioned art painting is telling us about the use of nature and a beautiful giant tree differently and in their own ways. Though, the picture is effortlessly explaining the different meanings of Art of Living yet..in other words, it can be seen as “Light” at one side and “Dark” at the another side.
Similarly, one mind behind this article, while choosing this question to be raised, answered that Art of Living cannot be taught to anyone by anyone. Contrary, the way of looking at Life, can definitely be taught to someone by someone, animal, plant, or any other species present in the earth.
It is because the universal power has given unique lens to all of us, therefore we all can only see what we are able to see with our lens irrespective of the opinions shared by Shakespeare, Einstein, Marx, Newton or Ghalib. Though, sometimes when naturally provided lens is impaired by some biological limitations then we may use common lens identically manufactured by maybe VERSACE, RAY-BAN or LENSKART. Yet, the point is view behind those lenses cannot be same anyway, so when we cannot see similar then how can be learn or teach similar about any smallest thing in this world.
When it comes to ‘Art of Living’ then we can say the algorithm to execute this code differs for all. Thus, to us, life is that self-sustaining process whose steps, algorithm and final code can only be created, generated, written and executed by you. Definitely, all the entities in this earth are meant to be here to play their roles while you are cracking your own code. The founder of the “the art of living” has gathered their noble efforts and opinions for such role playing mechanism or we can say helping mechanism and found ART OF LIVING organization.
Likewise, in his (Founder Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar) words, this seeking support thing to learn “How to Live” “How to be happy” “How to understand Life” is uniting people of different races, traditions, economic and social status, and nationalities for a common cause. Here, the counter point is that he has cracked his own code of ‘Art of Living” to understand what his life is all about, but if this code will be applied to your life then it may show an Error…
The above mentioned counter, or personal opinion has no means to discard the values, principles and beliefs or rules defined by ART OF LIVING.
But, this discussion is emphasizing on abilities of individuals to look at as well as understand the big mysterious word “LIFE”. In reality, it is a Doughty task to seek, learn, teach, understand or implement the “Art of Living” in our daily lives because we all are so busy in beautifully creating an Infinite Loop by our own for ourselves. Such loop may includes the highly cultivated efforts by human societies including us, to get validation on ‘Human life actually worth and has a meaning on this earth’. Again,
In the end, this opinion is also just an opinion given by someone with her unique and one mind, so whether you should break out of your own infinite loop, or you should stay in that loop for lifetime, depends on your own Code of Life. Or Maybe…staying inside your own loop is the meaning of Life & Happiness to You.
