If I ask you, are you happy from your life? You reply might be, Yes, I could be If I get so and so things then my life will be absolutely peaceful and happy.
But the moment you get that things, you started looking for other things you see still there are something missing in my life to make me happy.
That is called illusion, it will always keep you unsatisfied and ask you to get these things to become happy and you start running behind it.
A poor person want just bread and butter to become happy, a middle class person want a home and good job to become happy in his life and a rich person want to be more rich to become happy.
But if we observe from all threes life they won't be happy even if they get what they wanted.
So what is the reason behind it? and why if try to be happy we become more miserable?
To know this we must know some principle from our Scriptures:
1. Whatever we have we must say thanks to God, "O Krishna! even I am not enough qualified for all these but still by your causeless mercy you have provided me everything."
2. We should know this material world is temporary and nothing is going to stay forever here, so better if we have less things we can a burden free life.
3. Compare to the person who has nothing in compare to you but still he is living his life then why not I?
4. Krishna has given quota for everyone and one should never try to acquire quota of someone else.
5. Whatever things we have in our present life let's utilize it and try to be happy with that rather than complaining the things which you don't have. This way you not enjoy present life but also make your life miserable.
6. Give more and take less this you feel more happy and satisfied from your heart.
