Diffusing situation

 Diffusing situation 

😜

Heard of a squad who diffuse a bomb/explosive?

I watched them at work, in a movie.

They pronounce each TINY gesture as_they_do, like “now… iam gonna snap that blue wire and the yellow wire together “( a fellow listening to it in a van at a distance, is tense. Either a heave/sigh_of_relief “phew”, …..or a “boom”. Both the Audio recordings(phew or boom) serve as a “text book example for the next guy, staking his neck 🙏)

Do we speak at least within? Atleast a non-verbal thought about what we are going to do, in our Routine life???  Nah! 😡 ( We ain't not going to defuse any damn explosive ever …. then why the hell that “look before you leap” wala crap?😡)

Except the kids, who are FULLY taken care of, being a kid….all of us are in some kind of “situation” all our waking hours 🤣 

“Now….we have a SituaShun here” says a cop in USA on his walkie_talkie. And it alerts a head, with a headphone at the other end.  

Are we not “dealing” with “situations” all the time?

Wake up at the dawn ( situation: empty the bladder, clean the filthy mouth, satiate the stomach with hot coffee to isolate a download_situation in bowels 😜)

Reaching workplace on time, a situation.

Dealing with an ever_thirsty boss, a situation.

Buying groceries, a situation of an empty kitchen.

Picnicking, is a situation to diffuse the garbage of tension created by weeklong situations.

Any routine work we do, can be traced to a situation we had_to_deal 🙏😓 ( the doctor creates a situation, forcing open my eyelids, holding the GLARE of a powerful torchlight and says "guy_is_dead", if I don't respond to the situation defensively 😜🙏)

And then, our thoughts 😥 ( more of a ‘situation’ than a curiosity based one!)

“Health” care centers are fooling us, when ‘relief’ for a dis-Ease is all_they_provide, not a cure…. Health? Nothing to do with ‘health'.

Question is, “is it going to help us, mimicking that bomb_defuse expert, while dealing with situations?”( Yep 👍… we are gonna IMPROVISE in dealing with the next_bomb, which feigns like a chocolate all the time 😜)

My earliest memory of a “very bad handling of a situation” was when I was in my 4th class at school.

Situation: bell rang at school, and I had to get out of the premises ( peon waits to lock up the rooms, and then gates)

I failed to be as-alert as the guy in the bomb squad. Unaware, I was…. 

Result?...  My legs used its muscle memory and carried my body towards my previous rented_house. 100 metres later I jolted “oops! Wrong direction 🙏 😭. 

My parents have moved us to a newly rented place, in an opposite direction from school!😓”...  I walked back, those 100 metres, and now,  on a “productive” activity of my legs, means, right_direction.😜👍

“Why did you join this Program?” ( A column in the questionnaire to be filled by participants for a yoga program). I looked at it , like I looked at a_situation ! How to diffuse with a response that won't blow up my head? My peace of mind?  ‘Bah!’ I told myself, this time I am gonna remove all my ‘safety gadgets’ in my mind and am gonna be stark_naked in my reply🙏. Tired of this ‘defensive posturing’ all the time!

I wrote ‘the’ truth!( Whatever was true for_me 😜. It worked 🙏 😜)

What followed after the program cured me of my defect. Now, I enjoy diffusing situations in my routine, like that innocent kid does, when given a ‘new’ toy! That kid dismantles the toy, if the elder doesn't help. But I am not ignorant like the kid, anymore 🙏….  Response_abled/responsible.

Unawareness, is a situation too ( at least for me🙏). If I become fully aware, dat’s gonna be my ultimate liberation 🙏 . Therefore spirituality/अतः योगानुशासनम। (as Patanjali tolded/told in his first verse)

Diffusingly yours,
