CHAPTER 41<br />
Six months of married life have given me a new perspective of<br />
life. I am a thinking person, and I do it calmly without anyone<br />
noticing my churning process within.<br />
I owe this to my yoga power and meditation. Yoga teaches you<br />
how to remain calm, maintain poise and mental equilibrium<br />
whatever be the nature and intensity of turbulence around.<br />
Knowing this power of yoga, I never compromise on the daily<br />
schedule of at least 90 minutes for yoga and meditation. That<br />
makes your life sublime. I often feel that this is the most<br />
precious contribution of Ancient India to humanity from great<br />
Patanjali sage to present day gurus and swamis hovering<br />
around the country and the world with the message of Yoga.<br />
I know yoga apart, I have to think about the next step in my life.<br />
My visit to Saharanpur and my voluntary decision for “Nikah”<br />
are two uppermost thoughts in my mind.<br />
Life is a gamble. Play well. One learns a lot about one’s own<br />
ability to test nerves as well as your ability to overcome the<br />
stresses and strains of life.<br />
More than this, it unfolds before you human nature of various<br />
shades and hues, of various religious colours, of harmony and<br />
acrimony and what not.<br />
My objective is to see life in various situations and complexities.<br />
Perhaps, my life’s experiences would help me in my doctoral<br />
thesis.<br />
I am thinking on new lines. My work is not going to be a cutand-paste<br />
job on who said or wrote what.<br />
