“Relationships - of all kinds - are like sand held in your hand.
Held loosely, with an open hand, the sand remains where it is.The minute
you close your hand and squeeze tightly to hold on, the sand trickles
through your fingers. You may hold onto it, but most will be spilled. A
relationship is like that. Held loosely, with respect and freedom for
the other person, it is likely to remain intact. But hold too tightly,
too possessively, and the relationship slips away and is lost.”
But this is not just about relationship at all, This is about everything. You hear like - desire is the cause of all suffering, it is translated better as cravings are cause of all suffering, letting go of attachments, effortless effort. let go, relax.
In that context. We should hold on to our goals like this, like holding on to sand, firm and steady but not gripping tight. This is what Bhagawad Gita means when they say dont worry about results do your work. Same with yoga poses - this is effortless effort, we are not trying too hard, we are holding the pose but not struggling or striving.
we should hold on every moment like this, like sand, to people offcourse, to our thoughts, to our time, everything.
