“Discipline, obedience..
(uske baad.. “something, and something” ... else.. I
forget... while in NCC the ustaad tried to make us remember...
Dilip Kumar jee gave that idea of 'beech mei 'something-something'..
in a dialogue... “Rangee ko Naa-rangee kahe... Doodh mei bana
'Khoya'.. {the ironical contradiction... Na-rangee is a citrus
fruit, and it has 'a' color.. why call it na-rangee/non-colored?...
something made out of milk is very much tangible, though a little
compressed/concentrated, but why call it 'khoya'/lost?... beech mei
'something-something'... dekh kabira roya')....
Why do we need a
'discipline'? I used to wonder, when elders 'mention' it, ...
while the teacher tries to 'enforce' it... (but, the teacher is not
'so-insistent' after her-working-hours... that is our
school-hours!... The 'freedom-culture' of the west...
'in-its-making'.... ! Wah! Apna wala/our-own...
reverence-culture... drained down the stream, in our shishtim/system
of 'education'! All they do is just to make us literate... seldom
to do anything with education!)...
Little do we realise...
that disciple is the one who ever needs some discipline.. ...
Others have to only 'adhere' to the nature's rhythm, and enjoy 'life'
like a beautiful song, with karoke-sing-along style! If we are
'equipped' with a drum, do not try to look for strings of a violin
inside it... just beat the drum, but cohesively with the 'violinist'
next to us... Match making was not about making the same noise
together, 'a-little-louder'! It was about harmony between two
dissimilar instruments, to make the song.. the music ... a little
more brighter, smoother, and a little more less-fatiguing!
Anyway, when the question came up... “What makes a
person disciplined?( What is the secret behind being disciplined?)
I came up with a diluted
version of...
what occurred in my mind
thus: “ Any refinement of any kind, involves.... some kind of
self-imposed restriction...”
but the diluted version
was : (what I gave out on the 'answers' forum of Yahoo bosses)...
“When the
defects/disadvantages of an in-disciplined life-style comes too much
in the way !
Other wise, mere sermons-listening is a good pastime.. why bother with 'needless-restrictions' when life happens the way we like!
Now, somebody suddenly takes a liking to 'feel' how it would be on Moon! The discipline starts... health fitness to withstand a space travel, the ability to walk carefully at 1/6th of gravity, ability to conserve even breathing air (tension increases breathing, and depletes oxygen!!!)...
...
A surgeon who is going to sew up a nerve of brain which is thinner than a hair (seen only thro' microscope), without blocking the passage of blood through that nerve, has to ...
has to... 'discipline' by abstaining even a cup of 'coffee' , one week ahead of the operation... the tiny hand shake due to 'caffine' needs such a discipline!
...
Suppose my doctor says, you will live only one more day... why waste time trying to have discipline! Enjoy!”
