Investigators are finding out the reasons for Kanpur train accident. Loco pilot said that he had noticed overload on engine at 1 am thus he informed officials but he was asked to get train anyhow at Kanpur. At 3:03 a.m. there was a heavy explosion in the Overhead Electric Cable (OHE), after which the driver had to apply an emergency brake. The train at that time was running at a speed of 110 km/h. As a result, the passengers experienced a series of sudden jerks and deafening noise. And then the coaches began slipping from the track causing death of 150 passengers.
If we analyse whole thing properly we can see that similar tragedy happens with us too. We also sometimes realise that now I am overloaded, overburdened with responsibilities and duties but we ignore them and keep running with one aim in mind I want to reach Kanpur, means I want to achieve something may that be money, position in society etc. But what's the result of that?... health breakdown, mental and emotional breakdown, financial breakdown. It's said in youth people loose their health to gain money and in old age they loose their money to gain health.
So, slow down, analyse which part of the engine overburdened. Find out the reason, ask for the solution, apply solution, don't just keep running. Similarly in our daily life slow down sometimes, Find out reasons why I am born? What is purpose of my life? analyse our life, I am running at high speed with purpose in life but is my mind or heart capable of taking burdens of various problems of life else there will be sudden breakdown for sure causing serious dangers. That's why we should take the shelter of spiritual processes which helps our mind and heart not to get disturbed and continue working well when they are burdened with thoughts or problems. When your engine becomes capable of taking burdens then run with speed.
Scriptures explains us very wonderful example of moth who just rushes to fire thinking it to be some glittering object for enjoyment thus looses the life. In the same way just for the gratification of senses we run with full speed to sense objects thus entangling ourselves more into this world. Slow down...think about consequences, know more about yourself and engine(mind) with help of spirituality. Don't run with high speed without knowing about your engine(mind) and its capabilities else be ready for break down!!
