The
art of getting fun out of life is sure to help reduce tension in our day-to-day
existence. I remember a recent incident of getting a phone call from a boy who
was appearing for his Final Examination. The day before his science paper India
and Pakistan were playing a cricket match in Bangalore. The parents of the boy
obviously were not in favour of his watching the live telecast of the match on
TV. The boy pleaded and being a sensible person the father finally agreed to
his request. The entire family watched India win and much tension was avoided.
Had the parents refused to allow their son to watch the match it is possible he
would have failed miserably in the examination. By giving their permission they
gave the boy an incentive to work harder and perform better without feeling
depressed for having missed a crucial match.
This
incident illustrates how essential it is to know how to get fun out of life.
This maxim is also applicable in spiritual life. It is a mistaken notion that a
spiritual person should always be gloomy with a sober countenance. Spirituality
does not mean being a kill-joy because this is a crucial attitude for the
process of overcoming mental tension.
At
this point let me refer to one Dr. H.C. Wicks, a consultant physician at the Rachel
Foster Hospital in Sydney, Australia. In her capacity as consultant physician
she often had occasion to address conferences on how to get rid of nervous
tension/ depression. From her long experience she found out three important
ways by which mental tension can be overcome. She pointed out that problems
originate in our mind and nervous system. Before beginning to help patients to
find remedies for tension or depression she would emphasise a universal truth:
though we have a mind and a soul, we also inhabit a body which we share with
the animal kingdom.
What
she meant by laying this emphasis on the existence of the body is to make us
aware of the changes that take place at the physical level when our mind is
disturbed. There are people of a certain temperament who expect life to be
smooth, always. They are unable to accept challenges or adversity.
