You cannot plough a field by turning it over in your mind.
Meaning of the Quote -
The meaning of this quote is that by plowing a field means you have to take all of the dirt that you can see in the field and dig it up, then flip it over, and break it up a bit. This way, new plants will have some room to grow and develop. It is really hard work and takes a lot of strengh. This is true if you actually do this in REALITY.
If you IMAGINE it in you mind (as mentioned in the quote) then in your imagination you will do, it will take less effort and won't be as much work - In other word you will do it the easy way. But at the end, when you are finished plowing, the result you end up with will be useless as you will not be able to plant any seeds and it will not be able to grow anything
So it is better to actually do the effort than just think of the easy way as it will not be worth anything.
That's the only way the "field" of your life is going to get "turned over", and you'll reap the rewards of a future harvest.
Connection to CB -
Today Radh did the punishment that was announced by the Mahant - Plowing a field with a mixture of 5 poisons (Vishpind) on her tounge.
Radhika did not back out of the punishment but instead took the challenge confidently. She knew that her husband's love and her Kanha is with her. She completed the task but the Mahantji said it did not count and her effort were useless and was saying that she took the easy route becuase Dev helped her (which is wrong).
Now Radh will probably be punished again which I definately think will add up to be equal to the pain Dev has suffered.
I would like to say to Radh that, take this challenge full on and work hard to plough the field of your life so that you can plant the seeds of happiness and then harvest the rewards that you will earn.
Please post you thoughts.
