My imaginary Sins
π
What does it feel like to commit uncommon kinds of sin?
( As long as it doesn't cause any loss or damage to anyone, it seems okay π)
My spouse said, during her early days when we got wedded, “I became a teacher for 4th class kids. But very soon I realised that I am not good at teaching. I decided ‘I have no right to spoil the future of 50 kids, being unable to really “teach” them the concepts, I must quit. Salary can come without harming others too!’ But, I wasn't let off immediately. The school asked to quit after_the_term. (Her confession inspired me to imagine myself sinning too! π)
My imagination ( hence, confession can be religious too, not compulsory to use my irreligious Hinduism π):
If,
I were a teacher for 8th class in physics,
I would ask a simple question like :"I look through my window. It is drizzling. But I like to see the rain_drops in the air. I am looking at a white coloured wall on the opposite side, but I am unable to see 'rain_drops' . Suddenly the door of that house got opened and a little darkness was seen through that door. Now, I can see a few rain drops against the darkness of that open_door. Why???"
π
( Any kid explaining the "why" of seen/not_seen , both.....has understood+ learnt to apply the lesson "refraction of light" etc, related to chapter 'light'.π.
If none of the kids answer, I go to the Chapel, and do a confession to the Lord "O'Lord, I sinned! I didn't teach physics properly! Please try to find_a_way to forgive me for my unpardonable sin, as a bad teacher ππ"
End of my imagination π
I started wondering,
A kulGuru is ill-fated, compared to a normal ‘Generalised’ guru ( traditions are suchπ)
Example: shukraCharya is guru for the cluster( kula) called Rakshasaas!
Any number of times, true to their innate nature, these demonic fellows keep insulting their Guru. Shri shukra_ji, true to his vows as a kula_guru, cannot abandon his disciples ( villains). If asked to”get lost” he moves away, only to take back his job at their request & “sorry sir, won't repeat a get_out” repeated very soonπ
Add another burdensome rule : a Guru decides upon a student, unlike 5 other inferior types of desi_teachers π. And, a failure of a student, is deemed to be a teacher's failure! Pure miseryππ
( I decided: at least for a teacher's sake, I must SLOG to learn π. My slogging yielded side_benefits—-i improved a bit, even in spirituality π).
Sinfully yours,
