The Daughters of Joy




Now I am reading Deepak Chopra's " The Daughters of Joy". It was boring at first, when I read it as if it is a novel and finally gave up my attempt.And while I was on my way to return it to the library, I had to wait in front of the library for an hour as I was too early. So I just browsed through the book once again as a last attempt to concentrate. Again failed. Then as if somebody directed me, I turn on the last pages and surprisingly, my eyes caught sight of some precious words. Words of wisdom about life and how to live your life wisely and how to love etc etc.. These are my present day problems , I don't know how to live my life and what to expect in life nor can I love anybody for the fear that all love are fickle and won't last forever.

So I got what I wanted and without knowing it, I was on my way to get rid of it. There is an unknown force around us which will guide us. We have only to open our eyes to listen its directions, which we always fail, due to our too much involvement in daily pleasures or too much expectations from life and the unpreventable depressions resulting from it.

I am reading this book now with all my senses opened to concentrate and find what Deepak Chopra has to share...

Here is what my brain could hold,

Deepak Chopra narrated some loveless peoples life who were leading a life with out love in depression and hatred (toward their spouse,ex-spouse etc..)
The daughters of joy help the Hero to see the soul of himself and how much he is deprived of love. They show him that he has not to beg before others doorsteps for love, instead he has to
find love inside his heart where it is blocked due to some ignorance. They helped him to release his love energy and only through the flow, could anyone get love and give love. In order to do that, we have to be open up. Understanding ourselves, accepting ourselves and in the end, we can be free of all our shortcomings and embrace the new world as it is with what we have. We can do anything . There are innumerable possibilities before us. But if we find time to hate and nurse an old woulds, and thereby blocking our love-energy, we cannot enjoy our life. So let free of all hatred in the past, cling to the present and make it lively and live well. Love is inside us.
Find it out and use it.
And share it.
Love can do wonders.
It can help us forget an old wound,
can get confidence,
optimism and much more..
Love does not mean sexual attraction only.
It is a feeling of one soul to another.
In anyway try to be in love with yourself.
Then you can love others as well.
I think I understood a bit but not all his interpretations. But may be one day, once again I will read the book and then I could grasp more. At present I shall try to love all, forgive all, and accept me as I am..
