Diamond Thoughts

 We have often seen obstacles in the way of one’s goal.  When your opponents can’t stop you from hitting the target, their last weapon is to stop you by beating you.  Most of them succeed when we get distracted by their actions and forget the goal and start fighting them.  Even if we win the battle, they have won in stopping the goal.  So whenever we move towards a goal, our focus should be only on the goal.  Obstacles along the way should be avoided as much as possible.  Even if we think there is going to be a fight ahead, if I can move towards my goal by apologizing, or by being beaten, then this should be done because if you get involved in road fights, you have to deviate from your goal.  .  Under normal circumstances people have this problem.  Look at how many agitations, dharnas, struggles etc. their goal was different when they started and when they ended they would be involved in only one fight.

People hold dharnas for any one purpose, dharna is done for any other purpose.  But such incidents happen during those dharnas.  If a person is caught then a dharna is started to release the person.  Their goal is to rehabilitate their men, entangled in the problem of the path that they deviate from the goal.  A dharna with a single goal changes many paths along the way.

 Our kings also sat with the enemy where needed to achieve the goal and where needed they were martyred, all the families rolled but never deviated from their goal. The greatness of our kings was that they went to great lengths to solve the obstacles but did not deviate from the goal.

We should focus only on the goal and not on the battle of the road.  But we have also blurred the goal of the kings by making the road battles great.
