Our connection defines our outlook towards life. Whom we spend time with matters because our relationships influence our emotional well-being, personal growth, and ultimately, our lives. A meaningful connections are a fundamental part of a fulfilling life. Spending time with mindful people having a positive and supportive attitude can improve mental and emotional health. However, in contrast, a lack of meaningful connections or time spent with negative influences can detract from our overall quality of life even it stop our growth. This is what is conveyed in todays Sanskrit teaching. It says ;
अरिणा सह संवासाद्विषेण सह भोजनात् |
पाप्मना सह् सौहार्द्रान्मरणं प्रतिपद्यते ||
Arinaa saha samvaasaadvishena saha bhojanaat.
Paapmnaa saha sauhaardraanmaranam pratipadyate.
Arinaa = enemies.
Saha = together with.
Samvaasaadvishena = Samvaasaat + dveshena.
Samvaasaat = association with.
Dveshena = persons who are hostile towards you.
Bhojanaat = diningwith or sharing a meal.
Paapmanaa = wicked persons.
Sauhaardraanmaranam = Sauhaardraat + maranam.
Sauhaardraat = by having friendship.
Maranam = death.
Pratipadyate = fall to a person's lot.
i.e. If a person is always surrounded by his enemies, eats with people who hate him, and makes friends with mean and sinful people, then his life is sure to end soon.
Continous, exposure to negativity can lead to feelings of sadness, unhappiness, and depression, making it hard to find joy. When we were surrounded with people who does not like us, creates negativity. A constant barrage of negative thoughts or environment can erode your self-worth and confidence. Over time, negativity can lead to feelings of helplessness and hopelessness, making it difficult to see solutions or possibilities. All this influnces take a heavy toll on our mind and body, which ultimately ends up with destroying our life.
This is why people always favors a positive atmosphere and vibes in life to enhance mood and give us reason to live a meaningful life. It is better never let the negative people surround us.
