Life is like a T20 match.
When you are in your teens or in your early twenties, those years are like the powerplay overs
During the powerplay, that means during the first six overs of a T20 innings, the batsmen
can experiment and play aggressively without worrying too much, because there are fewer
fielders outside the 30-yard circle.
But the challenge is to not lose too many wickets during these beginning overs.
Similarly, when you are in your teens or in your early twenties, you are more free to
experiment with life, with career options etc., because there are fewer family responsibilities
to worry about.
But don't go so far that you end up losing your physical health or mental balance in
these formative years.
Because you still have a long way to go in life.
Now, in a T20, once you are through the first powerplay, that means after the first six
overs, the batsmen have to play more responsible cricket for the next nine or ten overs in
order to stabilize the innings.
This middle stretch is a bit boring, but to win the match, the batsmen have to go through
it patiently.
Similarly, once you enter into your late twenties or early thirties, it's time to become more
responsible, it's time to stabilize your life - that means work towards a stable career
and stable relationships.
Now life can get a bit boring here, it may involve a lot of hard work, and unfortunately this
phase of life stays for a long time.
But to be successful, you have to go through all these patiently.
Back to the T20, once the innings enters the final overs, the batsmen can again freely
express themselves, take extraordinary risks, and reap the rewards of a stable innings.
Similarly in life, once you have attained stability - in your career and in your relationships
- you have earned the right to go out and about.
Now you can freely express yourself and enjoy life which is now situated
upon a stable foundation.
Even when it comes to spirituality, it's the same story.
In the first phase you explore spirituality, in the second phase you work hard on spiritual
practices, and in the final phase you experience unbounded spiritual happiness.
So whether it's a T20 match, whether it's life or spiritual life, you will be called
upon at some point to sacrifice shallow pleasures in order to reach deeper happiness, you will
have to forego temptations in order to reach your cherished goals.
