At the age of 80, he is moving, walking and working. He is driving also. He has a good memory. I wondered about his secret. He shared that yes, I have always tried doing the right thing and I have never tried harming anyone. I always keep a positive thought process because without that we can never be healthy. But there is also something which has helped me. I always focused on having a healthy body till the last day of life. He shared that as a child he saw lot of people in their 40s, said things like, now they are getting old, so the body will give up. As a child he asked them, why would their body give up and one gentleman shared that because it was getting old. However, that gentleman was healthy at that time. So the next question was, does that happen to everyone or some are spared and if some are spared then why were they spared. So He realized that he had to focus on staying healthy till the last day of life. However, he had to put in efforts like eating healthy and simple. Doing regular exercise etc.
He continued that he also focused on this fact that he should be able to serve till his last breath, and he had been doing that. because of our own experiences and what people tell us, we tend to believe that in the old age, we need to take service from others. However, if start focusing on a mere fact that I want to serve till the last breath, that also starts working. Your mind knows how to prepare your body for what you want. So if you want to be healthy and if you want too take care of the people rather than to be taken care of , start focusing on that.
It’s a pandemic time. Everyone is scared. They talk about many more waves. And everyone is scared that who would be spared, who would be left, apart from taking measures to boost health like sunlight, exercise, eating fruits etc, also focus your mind on staying healthy throughout your life.
It works and it works on everyone. People who had a thought process of having a healthy body till the last day of life, actually had. They appeared to have died suddenly but isn’t that being healthy till last day means? So focus on having a healthy body always.Focus on having a healthy mind till the last day.
