Hopefully

Strangely, the teaching's of the east and the learning's of the west are so contradictory in nature, it becomes difficult to accept one without the other. For instance, consider the statements below on leading life.

The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time - Mark Twain.

Its the one without hope who doesn't mind ending their life today - Lord Shri Krishn.

It is not particularly surprising that contradictions are abound in life. The lord further provides an explanation on why these occur: There are multiple images of the same moment which are interpreted according to our changing perspectives.

It makes complete sense, to know that a single moment can have multiple point's of view. Its like having different paths leading towards or trailing from, the same destination or point of origin. As long as we understand that the lines are not parallel to each other, we can be sure that they will, or already have, intersected each other at some point irrespective of the currently prevalent distance between them.
