Decision Today Poem by Daniel Trevelyn Joseph

Decision Today



Decided for twenty four hours
I will not read anything,
Not books, not magazines,
Not on the laptop, nor on iPad.

If I succeed, only then I am a man
Having some will power;
I don't do anything else these days
And so I took this decision.

Continued thinking I should rid
Of all attempts to do better
Or to compete with anyone,
Not even with my own self.

No need to be efficient,
Or effective, think of myself
To achieve one thing or other:
Brain should be made idle.

Yogashchittha vritti nirodh
Patanjali says correctly.
