I always wondered watching a movie, when the villain makes some clandestine plans to curb property/cheat others, kill innocent or any evil things, the audience never appreciate it. They always want the Hero come and rescue the innocent. When the parents are disrespected in the movie, we feel uncomfortable. I wonder why! When the villains son, during the college examination copies from others, we want him get caught or banged. I wonder why!
When I was giving examination more than 60% students were indulged in one or the other way of copying. When I look at the familes, the old are not respected. When I look at the offices/companies, many are involved in making wrong money by producing wrong bills viz. medical, transport, Leave travel. Yet these people want to be respected!
Now I put my point! Why all these people who appreciated the Hero's good nature and rejected the villain, lead their personal lives like cheaters/haters of mankind? I noticed when we want something, we want it at the earliest, in a shortest time with minimum risk. Yes! it is true. As a normal human being we all have such thoughts. If you dont have such thoughts, I can bet you are one of the flagbearers for this world.
After all! why we have dual personalities? Well! it is because of 4 primary reasons
- Our upbringing
- Our friends
- Lack of retrospection
- 'It didnt hurt anyone'. 'Nobody knows about it'. 'He does lot of such things, what if I did one ?' kind of attitude
So what do I want to say here? I want these people to amend themselves. Lets see why! When Valmiki was born nothing great happened as in the case of Jesus! However when Valmiki had realization then did great things happen in his life and we say "He's born for a purpose". Literally he drove Rama to places. He wrote "Rama will go for Vanavasa" so did Rama. He directed the Lord himself to places. So if we look back and say what is the purpose of my life? The answer is "Do some work to earn money! Get married, have children, bring them up, Build a own house which will not remain with us after we leave this world. Get some worldly possessions! enjoy life and take last breath in satisfation that the same thing has been happening in the world for millions of years and it will happen the same with our children aswell" This is more or less the purpose of every person. But are we realizing some where that in the process of achieving this purpose, we are side tracking
If this is the sole purpose of homo-sapiens, it keeps them no disticnt from animals and birds. We used our intellectual skills to grow technically. But how are we using our intelligence to put ourselves better in personality, to gain better character, improve ethics! None! We are more happy with material possessions than the spiritual. However when everything is going wrong and out of control, then we seek the help of god! Alas! Here is one question that one should ask oneself, Am I ready to change to better in my life in character? If the answer is yes then it is better to read furtther. Let's redefine, or rather suppliment our purpose of life in a more meaningful way I live because I'm given a duty to perform in this world. No matter how many years I live, I have a purpose, besides my relationships, possessions! it is to live a truthful life. A life which will show light to others when they look at me. A life which shall be more revered and remembered after my departure. A glorious life which shall be followed. I will be the HERO in this world. I assign myself all the characters a hero should possess. My children wont be merely currency machines but ethical machines who are highly revered for their character and not for their position If we resolve to this today, a couple of days may be bitter for us, but slowly we'll realize that we are nearing our purpose and we are being guided by god. When we are guided by god, nothing in this world is against us. If something goes wrong, we realise that it is for a purpose. We never feel let down, unhappy, sad. We start offering light to others, happiness to others. And more responsibilities may shower on you from the efficiency of your handling! Now, You are Born for a purpose
