A month ago, there was an intra-office tennis tournament at office which I had taken part in. I lost in the finals of the
singles event. I was a little disappointed with my performance. In the evening that day I wrote to Gurudev telling him about
my loss and also that I needed to work on my fitness level and stamina.
Master’s response the next day was like a breath of fresh air. He wrote -
“Congratulations for letting a friend win the trophy. Congratulations once
again, for going till the finals”. This kind of reply was nowhere close to what I was expecting. But it made me feel good. Master was trying to show me a different perspective, a
viewpoint which in today’s extremely competitive world, I had completely forgotten.
I learnt not to be too hard on myself. "Enjoy the journey while it lasts !!".
