Lovely story, Jayshree. The point in time when we lose our childhood innocence, absolute trust and faith in the Universe is the start of a journey of descent into pain, sorrow, anxiety and all other negative emotions. Despite being given the magical gift of consciousness, I often wonder why we lose the spirit of children as we start becoming more aware of the world. Mahesh Yogi advised us to remain child-like but not childish: a quality that I have seen very rarely, if ever.

Thanks for the feedback Arjun! Yes, I wonder about it too, why we lose our innocent and childlike beliefs - and the cost of 'growing up' is sometimes steep.

I wrote a 2 min post on beliefs as a reminder, there is magic in simple childlike wonder - https://medium.com/illumination/believe-like-a-child-see-as-an-adult-d5ca93f2a0ab
