What This Reflection Is About

As Good Friday dawns, we turn our minds and hearts toward the confluence of Ancient Wisdom and Modern Devices. In this serene, reflective space, we explore how this nuanced balance can lead to a peaceful and fulfilling existence in our increasingly digital world.

Mankind has an unrivalled knack for innovation — evident in our plethora of modern devices. Yet the whispers of ancient wisdom, percolating through millennia, insist on a slower, deeper rhythm of life. How do we reconcile these? On this Good Friday, let’s deliberate.

Maintaining Balance

To maintain harmony, we need not shun technology. Instead, we can take mindful control. Our devices, capable of endless scrolls, endless knowledge, can be mediums for spiritual growth if we elect to use them with intention.

Echoes of Ancient Wisdom

Ancient doctrines advocated for unity and wholeness. The teaching thumbprint of every spiritual teacher was to focus on the whole rather than parts. This wisdom resonates in the age of inter-connected devices. Our task is to hold onto this sense of unity amidst digital fragmentation.

Final Thought

Good Friday is a day of stillness, echoing with ancient wisdom. As we navigate through our digital life, remember that silence is not empty, it’s full of answers. By reminding ourselves of this ancient wisdom, maintaining conscious interaction with our modern devices, we reclaim our serenity amidst the buzz of electronic sounds. The harmony we seek is, and has always been, in our own hands.
