Illogical logic

How many of us really apply in logic in everything we do or say? Not many. This is so sad that how we are wasting the boon of almighty to humans. It is logic that separates us from other living creatures. Still we don’t want to behave like a human.

More sadly there are some who try to apply logic to every damn thing in life. Every moment in their life should be logical. There is no scope for surprises. More over they do not respect the unexpected. For them, everything should be as planned and should have well defined meaning. Half their life they spend in thinking about “what if”.

This “what if” ka chakkar is really bad. We try to anticipate everything, hoping that when it happens we will be equipped with the ways to face it. Their life goes in fining solution of nonexistent problems and they forget to enjoy the present. One gyani told me once that most of the bugs in code comes because decision making if-else statements. Try to avoid them as much as you can and you will be a happy soul. Sometimes it can be applied on the life also. Let the life come and do what intends to do. Sometimes let others take the decisions.

Why and when we try to overkill using logic? First and foremost when we are in emotional turbulence. In reality this is the time we should not pressure our mind much, but we do exactly the otherwise. Many a times when faced with dilemma, logic looks like a logical shelter. Every time it may not be true, but still there are some odds. And these things come in everyones life, so if you are facing this, dont think there is something wrong with you.

ps: “what if”, I have been doing it a lot last few days. This entry today is the essence of learning from a gyaani on the same tendency. Solution is embedded in above few paragraphs.
