If you are going 100 miles an hour, you’ll become used to it after a while. The speed blinds you. It becomes the new normal. The same goes for a lower or faster speed. What the point is that we sometimes need to step back and look at our own speed to see if it stilll suits the road we are following. We can become blind to our own habits. Even our own sadhana. It’s the trick to trick ourselves, to remain sharp and bright. to see danger ahead, to take a nap once in a while.
Go full throttle either in your sadhana or whatever, if it suits you. And I congratulate those. but for me, i need to step back sometimes to see what I truly love and it’s in those moments I cherish life the most.
