Ten Lessons of Life

Life is a great teacher.

Life is a great teacher. Life continues to teach through the various experiences as we grow. From early childhood till we depart from this world, there are some lessons that naturally come into our lives and if they are not learnt well, the class is repeated. Like in school, where one has to learn a particular syllabus and if it is not learnt properly, one is specially coached and if one still doesn’t do well then one has to repeat the year. Similarly in life, lessons that are not learnt well are repeated again and again. This is evolution or natural growth.

The human body consists of 60 trillion cells and each cell has knowledge of the entire body. Every moment many cells die and new ones are born. Once a cell dies all its information is transferred to the new one. Even at this moment, our cells are dying and new ones are taking birth. After every seven years the entire body renews itself. The body we had seven years ago is no longer the one we have at present. Every seven years there is a complete overhaul and the body is as though reborn. A similar thing happens to our minds. If we observe our lives carefully, we will find a transformation taking place roughly every seven years, give and take a few years. We notice a definite paradigm shift taking place in the personality. These are lessons that Life teaches us. We can either go with the flow and learn them effortlessly and naturally or learn them in a more proactive, conscious sort of way.
