sri sri on boredom
this is what sri sri ravi shankar (of "art of living" fame) had to say on boredom in one of his talks:
"only a conscious, alert and dynamic person can get bored; a dull and inert person does not. if you get bored, it indicates you are more alive and human. it is a sign that you are growing, that you are evolving.
an animal, for example, keeps doing the same thing. it never gets bored. cows, horses, birds do the same things over and over throughout their lives.
people eat, watch television, change jobs, change partners to escape boredom. then they become frustrated and this frustration takes them back to inertia and unconsciousness.
only in two states does boredom not occur: in a state of total inertia or in a state of Divine consciousness. if you are bored, it indicates you are evolving. boredom moves you. be proud of your boredom and celebrate!"
