This universe is like a perpetual fine-dining restaurant. It will be more than happy to keep serving you as long as you keep ordering your favourite dishes. However, the preparation and service time depends on your Karmic bank balance. The wait time for certain ‘dishes’ could be in days, months, years, or even lifetimes.
If you are suffering and hungry despite a plate full of deliciously tempting food, then know that it’s your soul telling you that you have had enough. Ordering more food will only add to your pain (and wait time).
It’s time to settle the bill, and head towards the exit. Hint: the exit will have a signboard that reads ‘Guru’.
हे जीव! क्या इच्छत है अब? है इच्छा दुःख मूल ।
जब इच्छा का नाश तब, मिटे अनादि भूल ।।
— Shrimad Rajchandra Ji (Maarag Saacha Mil Gaya)
Very useful for me
So very true, it’s right time now to settle the Bill.
