Goal of Human Life
(Manushya Jivan ka Uddeshya)
(Manushya Jivan ka Uddeshya)
Shree Hari
(continued)
The seekers commit a big mistake while following their spiritual path. They get contented midway with elementary success. There is a Marawari saying;
"adhe kutte kholana hi kheera hai." i.e. for a blind dog even the "Kholana" (water from strained vegetables etc) is as good as rice cooked in milk (kheer). Similarly there are people that become highly pleased even with the acquisition of a little wealth, wisdom, honor, and fame in the world.
What is truly achieved? The worldly achievements whatever it is, is indeed a deception. We need to realize the Supreme and the superior most truth! Even if we need wealth, it must be of the best and highest nature. Whatever we want, whether wisdom, riches, honor, status, praise, life, we want it to be of the noblest, purest and highest order. None can uproot this fundamental desire of man's heart! And, nothing short of God Realization can satiate this deep seated longing, because the supreme Tattva is no other than God Himself.
Arjuna says -
Na tvatsamo'styabhyadhikah kuto'nyo
lokatraye' pyarpratimaprabhaava (gita 11/43)
i.e. Thou are of illimitable power and effect; there is none like You; how can then anybody be more higher than what you are!"
Achievement of such a supreme thing should thus be the goal of our life. That Tattva which was realized in ancient times by the earlier great ones, that sages and seers, saints and Sadhus, Sanakaadika and Devarshi Narada, Brahmaa, Shankara etc., -
That very truth is realizable and can be realized even now in this Kaliyuga today itseld. The worldly goods can not be obtained by one and all, but God can be realized by everybody. There is not a single man for whom God is inaccessible!
Realization of that supreme truth, God alone, is the goal of human life. My aim is God realization - only man is capable enough to realize this thing; not any other living being!
Amongst living beings, cow is very holy animal, but we cannot make her understand this truth. Please, ponder a little on the point. You come to Satsanga so early in the morning from very far distances and that too daily. Do you get any money here? Or any sensual enjoyments? Or any honor? Or any gains? Or any profits that you earn over here? If none of these then tell me what brings you here for satsanga so early in the pre-dawn hours? (to be continued)
