Enjoyment Propensity gives us only pain

We all are trying to get enjoyment from any objects or person in this material world. But we forget one thing when we try to enjoy then we get caught into clutches of illusion and we get only pain rather than pleasure.

We see here from example of an fish, there are so many fishes in the river but few fishes prefer to stay in deep of the water and few fishes try to enjoy on surface of the water.

When fishes comes on the surface of the water, they feel very relaxed and enjoy jumping on the surface of the water. Very soon a fish catcher comes on bank of the river and put hook inside the water with earthworm and wait outside to catch the fish.

When fish sees earthworm she immediately attract through it and comes in the contact of it and put her mouth to grab it and she immediately trapped, fish catcher immediately pull fish outside and catch.

Here is the learning lesson to all of us, fishes floating on surface water  is our enjoyment propensity and hook is illusion which attracts us to grab it but when we try to grab it we are in the clutches of illusion.

Other side we see fishes which stay in the deep water, it indicates that the person who are deeply convinced that there is not employment in this material world and always stay happy within, never comes under the clutches of illusion.

So, if we want to save our-self from clutches of illusion then we have to look happiness from our within, not from outside.

Hare Krishna!!!

Nectar in the beginning but Poison in end

He was young and belonging from rich family, he entered into the compartment and seated next to me.  Long and stylist hair, branded watch on wrist, iPhone in hand but he was loosing his control. Started abusing someone on phone and shouting out very louder, people was looking at him.  He was fully drunken and started vomiting, people thrown out him out of train and he slayed down at platform. Story is not over yet, I was thinking is this our modern education we are providing to our children and in the name of facilities we are giving them huge money, branded gadgets, but being an guarding do we ever try to esquire what they do and, which type of association they keep?  Once these things comes in their hands they start thinking, no one is greater than me and due to false ego they disrespect elder people.  But one thing they forget, disrespecting elder people only harmful to them because elderly people only teach them morality and good lesson.

Happiness is inversely proportional to our requirements

Today's culture is to accumulate things more and more to become happy, people think how much we fulfill our requirements that much we will be happy. The whole world is producing a new-new things everyday on the demand of people. We see our consumption are never ending, that is why there is a big problem in supply and demand equation. People need more and supply is less in proportion to their demands. But in ancient time it was not there people were having very less requirements to live their life, even they were full of resources. Philosophically they were very much aware that our requirements can never be fulfilled instead how much we increase our requirements that much our life will be miserable. For example two people are travelling one is having a simple light weight bag and other one is with full heavy 5-6 bags. Who can enjoy the journey?
