MATURITY
Someone said to me that "maturity is about the way you comprehend and perceive the world around you. It is how you consider other's feelings and choose your words around them with care and how you respond to challenges with grace. It is reflected in what you hold dear and what you choose to allow in your life. True maturity is in how you carry yourself and represent those around you as an adult. Growing old is like growing up."
I contemplated upon the above thesis of maturity. It is the kind of maturity that most successful people in the world uphold. But I asked myself a question; Are all these mature minds happy? Sadly, you know that they are necessarily not happy.
Growing up does not make sense or bring happiness unless you grow deeper into your own self. Most people forget to grow deeper into themselves even when they make claims about their maturity. Jesus was right when he said, "If you don't become like those children, you won't enter the kingdom of God." He was not referring to the worldly maturity of serious and successful people of the world. Worldly maturity brings seriousness but not happiness . When you grow deeper into your own self, you become like children. You become playful and unpredictable like Krsna and Sreeramkrisna paramhansa. Mature people are highly predictable in their nature.
Maturity of the world will not bring happiness if you are not playful like Krsna. Uncertainty brings an adventerous spirit into life. Love is always an adventure. The mature people of this world often miss the beauty of adventures of unpredictable missions.
Krsna gave the most mature advice to Arjuna about life. Don't glorify worldly maturity or success. Death will make them worthless. It will only make you look like a serious animal with a serious wrinkled face. Nothing more than that.
Wildflowers enjoy themselves more than the tall trees that struggle to grow deeper.
