Dealing with critics : Krishna's way
SWIM
In the crowd of people we face everyday,
closer or farther we face everyday,
my thoughts that peeped out of the box
apart from routine, against the rock
I see, meet and forget
millions of Shishupal on the gate
of my life, of my day
behind me like a hay
they are the one who gave me wound
I'm not Krishna but they are hound
whatever I do, whatever I say,
I have only one thought to say
" my friend this is the way,
there'll be breezes, there'll storms,
monsters of the sea, demons of your own,
to slow down your speed,
to make you feed.
Just do one thing,
Across the flow you just swim,
Sing the hymn,
You must swim.....
- Sarang Joshi
In our great epic Mahabharat, there is a story of lord Krishna dealing with critics like Shishupal. And this is it's narration.
Krishna beheaded Shishupal in front of the court just like He didn't cared about what everyone will think.....it symbolizes yhat once you focus on yourself everything else will blur in front of you. We can't literally behead someone but we can behead their criticism.
Finally thanks to my friend who helped me write this one.
