NIGRA, AGRA, SATYAGRA AND DURAGRA

 

Nigra means control.

 

Agra means insistence.

 

Satyagra means steadfast determination.

 

Duragra means blind adamancy, reckless stubbornness.

 

These four will give you progress when practiced for a limited period

of

time. They give limited results, positive or negative. But if they

stay

on for a longer period, they eat away the potential of life. One has

to

transcend all these four to attain peace.

 

Freedom is when you transcend all four. They are inevitable to

streamline life but you need to transcend them to be free.

 

Give your own examples and discuss nigra, agra, satyagra, and

duragra.
