many people ask about the amount of courage that it took me to leave the job…and, ive no answer to it as it was not a matter of courage at all…it was just the flow in which it occurred and, i just moved on…like a river flovvs thru’ crossing all pathways…so it was…
although, Vishal doesn’t hail from a financially abundant family but, there was plenty of basic trio of life- the food cloth & shelter…and, Vishal too had abundantly fair share of ruggedness of the life…from sleeping under the spilling roof to do all chores to sustain a basic living…
“doesn’t belong to a rich family but had the highest luxury of freedom, love and liberty…”
when i left the job in 2016, by then, i was already trained and prepared for a sustainable living with minimalistic lifestyle…a style of free living with basics and minimum expenses…
remember, my one and only ‘on table talk with my father in jan’2017…
when he asked- “why don’t you want to work..?” and, i replied- ” we don’t need plenty of paper money to survive…so, im not a slave (naukar) and im not made for slavery…why should one continue to gather paper money to fit in a corrupt societal set-up…”
he further asked- “then, what will you do for your living…?” i replied- “that i will work out by my self…but, i promise- i will not ask anyone for any help…” and, so it was…
i do work, but, only for what & how much is required for a sustainable living and i don’t spend on things…and, i don’t gather things…and, i don’t carry any big fat bank balances, for im not the watchman of any gathered paper money or things or properties…wear tailored clothes, eating simple meal once, whatever available and delivering my dues to all who are connected to me in any way…
certainly, love-filled and gratefull to those, who seldom gift a nice kurta or any utility…surely, only my disciples does…no asking or any expectations…smile… else, that too has to be gathered somewhere…but, i do love when anyone brings any hand cooked dish from the basic kitchen (dal, roti, chawal, phal, sabzi)…
loVe and freedom is the ultimate luxury… thus,
“i stand completely free and by myself without any dependence on any being for any thing…”
