Catching young is best. This story gives the reason why a (Sadhu) mystic changes his name forgetting his past. So is with married women who come to stay with the in-laws. Before concentrating (Dhyan) into a task (Uparati) withdrawal and (Dharana) detachment is a must. This is achieved by Yogic practice of Karma, Bhakti and Gyan. Just as a train compartment is more comfortable to board if its passengers alights first, so is it with the brain. Acceptance is the first step to change and this requires analysis to develop positive nature and this in turn is developed by study and experience. The world is always in a changing phase and it has to be for the better. In the long run many disappear into the historic text and museums. This change is of proper substance and long lasting if Self is developed before.
