This is the age of rage and
contention. And we have been born here, where one is farthest from god and
closest to deterioration of mankind. When we enter the process of life, we have
absolutely no will or desire. So during our lifetime(s), whatever we use, we are
bound to return. But as we grow up, we start accumulating a debt on us by
enjoying sweet fruits of the karma that we have not even achieved. It’s like
using credit and paying for it in future. We forget giving back the goodness
into the world and keep living an unreal life of luxury and pleasure. ‘What you
sow, so shall you reap’. And instead of putting the effort of sowing seeds of kindness,
we simply reap the rewards of others. That makes us a victim of future sorrow
and delays others getting their share of peace. While we have invited the beast
of regret, I believe others will be wisely taken care of by the almighty.
Debt debt debt. Do you realize debt
of money is a small stupid thing but it is money and desire that is the source
of all the personal and spiritual imbalances in the world!
People just try to find happiness
by chasing it. Sadly, happiness doesn’t even exist. Because for me, something
that has no stability is just an illusion.
Okay so now you are thinking ‘how
can happiness not exist?’ Let’s define happiness, in my standards; happiness is
having only what is required and in the optimum amount. Should be satisfying
our need, not greed. And how do we know what is optimum? When it doesn’t make
us insecure. Anything that doesn’t make us insecure i.e. gives no fear of
losing it, is the ONLY happiness. I’d rather call it peace. And I tell you, no
little or big amount of wealth can give you any kind of security. Yes we need
money, but enough to survive, enough that it doesn’t blow us out of our minds
and we forget that life is much more beyond all that glitter and gold. So let’s
put it in one sentence, life is all about keeping oneself at peace, not trying
to reap happiness based on our desires.
We got to be strong to smile at our
sorrow and be supportive to that of others. Come out and realize that if one is
sad, it is nothing but a process of paying back the debt and only inviting more
peace in life. And don’t let yourself be bothered by the misery of the other,
trust me, it is being taken care of, very wisely.
The world is cruel, agreed. But one
can’t close their eyes to it, because it won’t change anything. This is a
challenge, keep your eyes half open, half closed. That way, you are aware of
the outside world, but it won’t influence you since you are alive inside as
well, in the world of truth and serenity. You NEED to be aware of the ruthless
world, only then can you set a standard for yourself to achieve, a standard that
is higher and better and spotless.
"He does not make one suffer
for no reason nor does He make one happy for no reason. He is very fair and
gives you exactly what you deserve."
