It is in the law of nature to move and to rest.

If one were constantly moving, then the power of movement would gradually weaken.
If one were to only rest, then laziness will overpower one and it will be one failure after another.
Therefore it is that a balance has to be found between movement and non-movement or rest.

This is the fundamental basis for Kayotsarg.
The present age is the age of tension.
In this age this balance is very essential.
Practise thinking and non - thinking.
Practise talking and remaining silent.

This is an essential part of the daily routine of Jain monks.
It seems as if in the present day lifestyle, this should be an essential part of everybody's routine.
