“I guess, I need to now... recheck
the total of the days!”
said my spouse, when it simply crossed her limits of 'reasonable' results...
The word 'century' too , had a place in the same 'embedded' software, 'habituation'... somewhere..
Long ago, I had embarked on trying to persuade the women folk of our household, to lower the flame of the LPG gas... (sparks would fly off, if I were to 'insist' on it)...
They took just about 3 decades to try... nothing more...
but even the 'try' was very gradual.... (can't take chances with what this 'crackpot' fellow says!... that's me, the crackpot)...
the 55 to 60 days wala cycle climbed steadily up to 75 days, when the 'need' arose for booking a refill...
The number of people got reduced to just two of us (situational compulsions, others got relocated)..
the days climbed up to 85, then 90... and last year, some 93 or so...
Yesterday, the batsman at the crease (cylinder that is burning its belly-gas), hit a century 101 days :-))
and therefore that 'urge' to recheck the totals...
“simple, I said...” and showed the date of 'booking'... no need to flip the soiled pages of wall calendar.. total mistakes can be in the area of tens, not units...
Now, I thought... it is time to 'deliver' two simple messages...
one--- we needed to heat only the food, and not the entire kitchen... so the fuel got its life extended, when the “lowering of flame” did only the job that it was meant-to-do...

(I reserve the 'opporchutney' to
extend this concept to mind, which burns its fuel, indulging in too
many of needless thoughts ! :-)) }
Pressurising a modern mind into accepting something at once is counter-productive...
The fast pace of life, its ever-increasing vulnerabilities...
Has one of its nearly-irreversible side-effects...
As a part of 'self-defense' program... a mind resolves to habituate itself, into a habit, of resisting something that changes their very-routine , of their mind-itself...
So, the very 'listening' now becomes a habituated-delayed-program...
and then the 'trial' sessions of some suggestion, which got 'listened-to' deep enough after a reasonable-length of time... (in this case, just 3-decades :-)) lowering of flame!)..
trial sessions too... were progressively delayed (the progress was in detaching one-self, from the earlier habit of keeping the flame-high)....
What would happen, to a subtle concept, attempted to be infused via some crash-course, like a 13-day Yoga program... the program would crash.... support for backup can't sustain for 3 decades like a length-of-time :-))
Well, if this 'wild-imaginative-idea' of mine appeals... please revamp the very basic 'idea' of that “habit of not taking in things too-soon” , as a part of defensiveness of mind wala embedded software-program... Maybe other sub-routines will get impacted in a cascading manner !
In my case, I was in a great hurry....
I took things too seriously... Two sets of crude postures , called aasanas were prescribed for a brief duration, of just 40+ days, as a preparatory thing, to afford to sit in a place for hours, without feeling numb-limbs or developing muscular cramps... (as a basic-need, to justify such postures)...
these two sets were to be repeated on alternate days, once... I did it twice each, every day... that needed a rescheduling my non-office-hours... just that.. and I did it... coupled with that, I tried climbing on the bellow-actions (a middle part of a set of structured pranayam), which was left unshackled (as regards to its number-of-times), to a 'frenzy' height... average ones do it some 150 times in three sessions together... I did it just 3 K ... Anybody , even merely watching me do this circus, decides to keep a safe-distance from me , and that includes my 'ideas' too!
Habitually yours,
