How can one take time out to engage in religious activities?

That time has to be taken out, that time has to be taken out. In fact, even those who devote themselves entirely to studies, they always take some time out, but they take time out to waste it. If you employ it in more useful pursuits, still you will get that relaxation, because relaxation is change. While you are standing, you get tired, you just change the posture, still you are standing and the load is the same, but changing the posture gives you relief.

So if you go on changing your posture, you do get some relief. With the result that you are also attending to your hobbies, you call them hobbies then, attending to every scientist must have some time for his hobbies. So had Einstein, he was fond of music and he did pay attention to his music lessons and also he pursued some other pursuits. He was very fond of study, generally speaking, and even on his deathbed he was listening to a book.

So these are hobbies and the hobby with Churchill was carpentry and during the great stresses of war he could have a little time out for that and that helped him because, as I told you, change of subject is the breaking of monotony and breaking of boredom. So you employ that more effectively to your greater happiness by attending to the improvement of youth around you and particularly the young children and so on. Does that solve your problem? Yes.
