In the journey of life we are often confused, we become clueless when we find divergent paths, we search for direction and seek wisdom to take the correct path. Spiritual columnist Mukul Sharma asks us to unravel this puzzle by stating that Tibetan wisdom which says that we should not allow a fork defeat to our purpose.
This is easier said than done, to illustrate this conundrum he tries to draw inspiration from Robin Frost’s poem “two roads diverged in a yellow wood” Frost took the road less traveled and thinks it made the difference. But how could he be sure? He never took the road well traveled which many people take. So the mystery remains despite Frosts regret or lack of it.
For those who do not know where they are going, any road will take them there…..
for many the road ends and there is nowhere to go…. For the believers they turn to religion and priests to find the path, so that they shall not stumble or fall and the priests like signposts remain rooted to the spot, though they point the way.
For the enlightened there is no confusion and no path required, they make their own road, drifting like clouds above the jam packed earth.
