Hermit.. What is a hermit? A hermit is someone who selects isolation, staying away from social circle, usually we find these qualities in a sage.. We rarely come across anyone who’s so cool being a hermit…I feel it's maybe because everyone out there is scared to be alone, we people are so weak that we are always in need of company.. Very rare cases people are choosing disconnection, isolation… Well, but the universe/God/spirit/higher power don’t let us skip the hermit mode… one such incident happened to me as well.. I was forced to stay alone.. I was forced to stay without company… suddenly people were unavailable for me… scary isn’t it? Even I felt that.. But just for a while… after some point of time… I started reflecting on my life (I mean no one around so no shallow talks.. I had lots of free time)... and suddenly I went into this weird shock where nothing was making sense… that moment I felt like I failed at everything because I enjoyed nothing, I had no way out, I was tied down unnecessary! Felt the pain for a while & I had to let it go.. The next step went onto… discovering my hobbies, my interests, my kind of people and yet again I scrutinized my life… moving on.. The boredom hit so hard that I was annoyed and felt called to do stuff (due to meditation my intuition had leveled up) and so I started this new journey, kept only the people I love and discarded everything and everyone else out of my life!
I was one of those people who used to get scared of this hermit mode… but by this time I was having fun! But as everything had to come to an end… well it did… but my mind had become toooooo comfortable with this mode of living. I keep going back to this mode even today,.. And I feel I am terribly addicted to being a hermit. I still have to make peace with socializing, because that’s where my life purpose lies… but believe me, mentally I am still stuck in this hermit mode…
Overall, Is hermit mode scary? NO! NOT AT ALL! It’s just a phase where the universe gives you a chance on the platter to correct the stuff you’ve screwed up in your life.. And then, get on with your life! It teaches the importance of stability: Emotionally, mentally, spiritually, psychologically, physically! It teaches us how to focus, how to direct our mind, our thoughts towards a particular thing and achieving them. Hermit mode forces you to think things through, it gives a free hand in your destiny and makes you wise enough to make correct choices and understand that there are certain things beyond your basic necessities.
Hermit mode gives you a chance to declutter your life, declutter your social circle and declutter your thoughts! It helps you reach a blank state… and empowers you to recreate your life based on your karma, life purpose in this lifetime as well as your personal choices.
Don’t torture yourself next time you find yourself being in the hermit mode! Celebrate your increased wisdom & maturity!
