Q: Guruji, in every situation, how to remain ever new and eternal? For example when we meet people, our impression from our previous associations linger in the mind.

Sri Sri Ravi Shankar: Yeah of course, that is why I say you are both ancient and new. You are new that doesn't mean that you don't remember somebody's name. Every time you meet someone, you don't ask them, ‘What is your name again?’ Being ever new does not mean amnesia, where you forget everything, no! The depth of memory will certainly be there, but with the memory there will also be freshness. There is an essence of a renewed spirit. It is difficult to explain but that's what it is. So, don't think that a new beginning or living in the moment means amnesia, okay!
