#CoronaChronicles The Need of the Hour- Soul Sanitization
One of the most saleable item in times of today is disinfectant and sanitizers.
Almost so much that the demand is far exceeding the supply. Extreme caution and care are being taken by each and every one of us to prevent the fomite spread of the virus. In simple terms, the virus is believed to survive outside the human body on various surfaces. So we are busy to the extent of madness in cleaning anything entering our houses.
In my own household we quarantine products of grocery, everyone is washing vegetable fruits in various Types of solutions, the mopping and cleaning are being done extensively and very thoroughly using various disinfectants. Never have we been more cautious about anything entering our households as we are today. Hands are being sterilized again and again with sanitizers and soap. People have stopped taking newspapers. No one wants to order food from outside anymore, no couriers. We are overworking ourselves in the process of disinfection just to make sure we don’t come in contact with the virus. We don’t want to enter our homes and lives. We want to be safe.
Just ponder for a moment about what really also needs to be cleaned? What has been contaminated for a very very long time, what has been totally ignored in this sanitization drive of yours, which parts are the most vulnerable and dangerous corners in which resides problems far worse than what we are facing today? Where not once have we focused our attention ever? Where exist problems far more lethal
The human heart and mind
Infected over centuries with greed, hatred, ego, religious fanaticism, corruption, violence, anger, racial hatred, jealously, and many more of our sins. Far more poisonous and cause of far many deaths the world sees than what we are facing today. Yet no one ever feels the need to disinfect your own soul? No one feels the need to sanitize your mind.? To go on a path for the betterment of the entire human race. To cleanse our minds and try to free ourselves of these poisons.
Maybe this virus is indicative of some cleaning up which was long overdue. Maybe it’s directing you to begin with self sanitization. Maybe this is a very small problem compared to what already exists within all of us.
Think about it.
Stay home stay safe stay put
