Hiding affection, as a Tool

 Hiding affection, as a Tool


Funny, isn't it?

Especially when the modern trend is to display it glaringly, with a SPLURGE of money, if that person is unsure of the genuiness of one's own affection towards the other( own kid's 😜).



Epic stories convey the concept of ‘hiding affection’ liberally 😜

Ramayana, krishna_avatar( not Mahabharata war), are classic examples where the hero has tons of affection for the ‘villain’ and hides the affection till the last breath of the villain_raakshasa( after_all the villain is a permanent “security staff” of Vishnu… dwaaraPaalaka 😜).


Slightly lower level example is of an enlightened Master πŸ™ ( Outwardly ‘merciless’ towards own dear disciple! Master even reincarnates to deploy his powerful tool of MercilessNess to his ‘most’ blue_eyed/dearest disciple😜.  I had a ‘taste’ of this ‘cruelty’ between aug-1992 and Dec 1994😭. After that I was ‘let-off’ to Yenjoy_Life πŸ˜œπŸ‘).



Hindu way of life….

Hiding affection was the sole privilege of dads, until a century ago πŸ™. Moms choose it wisely, only if the situation warrants. Sacred reason= mom has a greater responsibility of imparting the ‘knowledge’ related to ‘equipoise of Emotions’ πŸ™. A male isn't designed to impart this_one_skill, adequately enough πŸ™, an evolved guy gains the competence, but turns into a Guru, from a biological_dad wala statusπŸ˜₯



Genuine teachers of today are under severe constraints of needing to “wait” until the student surrenders explicitly, saying “do what you like with me, but Please mould me into an evolved oneπŸ™” . ( I learnt that this kind of a student is rare and 4th kind of a ‘broad’ classification of types of students 😜).



Stray cases of ‘rags to riches’ via honest hard work, are examples of another similar concept : “any kind of refinement necessarily envisages some kind of self imposed restriction” ( ain't it sounding like: hiding own affection unto oneself?😜)



Allergically yours,
