Emergency Cleaning
Suppose
something goes wrong while you are having lunch in your canteen or at home.
Perhaps some sambar or ketchup falls on your shirt. You don’t
wear that same shirt all day and show it off to everybody: “Look at my
ketchup!”
Suppose
you have an argument in your class, or something unfavourable happens that
disturbs you so much. Nobody is going to see that affected consciousness in the
way that a ketchup stain is visible, but it’s so uncomfortable. You don’t want
to carry that until you do the cleaning at the end of the day. You are fuming.
What do you do? You can not close your eyes because you are in class, but you
can still do the cleaning for a few minutes. Then it will go away. You need not
pray, just use your will, make a subtle suggestion, that “What has affected me
right now is going from the back side in the form of smoke or vapour.” Then,
after these few minutes when you are comfortable that it’s gone, make a firm
resolution that it is really gone. This is about cleaning something after the
event.
