Shankaracharya went to house of Mandan Mishra to debate with him, but he found the door locked so he took alternate way and went in
Don't act smart with Shankaracharya, you will get roasted...
This is a very interesting story from ShankarDigvijaya where Mandan Mishra tries to insult Shankaracharya but gets insulted in return.
Shankaracharya went to house of Mandan Mishra to debate with him, but he found the door locked so he took alternate way and went in
On seeing Shankaracharya
Mandan(angrily)- From where did you come, you bald fellow?
Shankar - I am bald till neck.
(He said เคเฅเคคเฅ เคฎเฅเคฃเฅเคกเฅเคฏ Shankar took meaning as, 'How far are you shaven?' so he replied till neck. )
Shankar - Then what did the way reply?
(Mandan ment "I asked about your way" (From where did you come?) Shankar twisted meaning as 'I asked your way' so he said "What did the way reply?")
Shankar - But you asked it, it must be talking about your mother not mine.
Shankar - No Alcohol is white not yellow
(He said เค เคนเฅ เคชเฅเคคเคพ เคเคฟเค เคธเฅเคฐเคพ? Here เคชเฅเคคเคพ has two meanings, drunk and yellow, Shankar twisted the meaning as yellow and said no it was white not yellow.)
Shankar - Yes I know the colour but you know the taste.
Shankar - True, just like his father, your child born from you is a poisoned meat eater.
2 "Poisoned meat eater was born from me"
Shankar twisted the meaning and took second meaning.)

Do yr spiritual practice. Even when you don't feel like it.

Ok: a spiritual practice. Something that you do regularly, and if you do it with the right intention, can transform your relationship to yourself, other people, the world and your place in it and (if this resonates with you) the divine.
Prayer. Meditation. But also: making art. Walks in nature. Going running, for some people. I wrote a whole entire book on parenting as a spiritual practice. Intention matters.

Hey, today I told my therapist that the adrenaline I\u2019ve been relying on for the past 10 months or so has kinda... run out.

He said he\u2019s been hearing that from like every other client this month, so if you\u2019re feeling that too, you\u2019re not alone.
