Through spiritual practices and positive affirmations, one can find the peace
A student of archery, in all sincerity, asked his Guru how long it would take to master the craft. The Master ponders and with his prescience provides a measured reply. “It would take ten years.”The student is stupefied. The Guru is promised by the student that he will strive hard to achieve proficiency by putting in extra hours of work. Thereby he would become an ace, an unrivalled archer.
The teacher paused and gravely replied that it would take twenty years to become an expert.So how do ten years become twenty? The simple answer is anxiety and increasing levels of stress. A stressful mind cannot scale the summit.The Guru knew the potential of the candidate in question and the time required to harness the skills. The anxiety, feverishness and desperation of the student can never compress the period of learning.Humans live in highly stressful and disharmonious conditions.
