What can be said of the human brilliancy? Every day, it comes up with hundreds
of schemes to bring upon its own destruction.

The biggest reason for our failure is, we are not able to see the existence of this
world in its totality. Here, neither it is possible to fulfill the personal interests of
any individual nor of any group.
If brain is the centre of thoughts, liver is the centre of body. As brain becomes
inactive when not used, liver gets weak by long term dieting and eating simple
food.
Why don't we understand the simple fact that we have to spend the major part
of our life with ourselves. Then why do we depend on other people or things and
invite sorrows? Obviously, how can a person who is so dependent on others for
his happiness, ever be happy?
Life is only the present. Here, the moment once gone, is gone forever. It can
never come back. At the same time, no moment of future arrives with prior
intimation. Hence, this travel back and forth in the past and future, is nothing but
the manifestation of our fears. There is nothing worthwhile in it.
Just as extra energy is required to push the space shuttle out of earth's gravitation,
likewise, we also need energy above a certain limit to free the mind from the
influence of brain.
If putting a 'tilak' on the forehead, wearing a holy thread on the wrist, offering
prayers five times a day or visiting a temple, mosque and church, you could
attain 'Dharma - the religion', the ultimate height of the world, then nothing is
cheaper than religion.
No teaching, no society nor any of the so-called religion explains to us the
importance of qualities like simplicity, innocence, selflessness or compassion.
Whereas the truth is, all the best creations, inventions and arts have stemmed
from the "consciousness" of people with these qualities.
Because we suppress our anger against the strong and powerful, we keep
venting our anger on the weak, irrespective of the reason.
Is there a rebirth? No, not at all. From the perspective of what you think as
your way of being, like your name, your family, your country, society, religion or
wealth, all these will surely cease to exist forever with your death.
