Stages of Life

Human Life goes through the following stages - birth, childhood, youth, middle age, old age and death.


Some might skip 1-2 stages and face death in the case of a sudden eventuality.

Some sail through old age and hit the final stage in a matter of hours.

Some are destined to go through "Sickness" - a temporary phase between old age and death, a phase with intense physical and/or emotional pain that needs to be experienced, when death seems to be elusive.

Inevitably, the reason our mind conjures up is that there is some unresolved karma that needs to be cleared before we move onto next stage.

As I thought about this a few weeks back, the question that immediately hit me was "Why not clear those unresolved karmas in the 40s and 50s? Why go through all the pain and suffering  in the 70s and 80s?"

These questions have led me to go deeper into understanding about karma. I don't have a clear understanding yet. But reading Sadhguru's Karma is bringing in a lot of clarity on many such questions.

Thank you Universe yet again, for bringing the right book at the right time in front of my eyes.
