"Maya" in operation

Most of us in childhood have host of questions to ask, some of which are trivial and others seemingly trivial…Why is the sky blue? Why can birds fly and i can’t? Why does the sun rise and set every single day? On growing up due to the changing dynamics, this inquisitive nature either gets suppressed or undergoes alteration as there are “more important things” in life.

Someone who has studied biology even at the most basic level would know that a human body is a highly complex ‘machine’ involving a mind boggling number of chemical reactions, electrical activities and mechanical processes occurring in coordination with each other. Isn’t it interesting that these processes are happening inside us, without us ever being aware of them. (By the way did you know that 300 million cells die in our body every minute!)Science tells us that earth is round but isn’t it weird that we never feel it to be. Air that we breathe is indispensable to our existence yet we never value it.

Every single day of life is unique and also a moment once passed shall never return, yet there is an inherent feeling that things will always be the same.

There are 1.8 deaths every second that equates to 155,520 deaths a day (source google) but we are completely oblivious to the fact that our time shall come too and one does not know when and how!

And this brings me to the fundamental questions-
why is it that most of us stop valuing our lives and find ourselves caught up in a situation where we “don’t have time” to do things that we always wished to?
What is it that made us so busy without us even realising it?
After all when and where did the time go and how come we never took notice of this?

And the answer to these is just one…. 

“Maya” in operation!
