Why WE Prefer to Leave Peace of Mind for Material Gains?

Spiritual Peace and Nature

I am pondering on one situation that is so much common with modern man, and that is to switch from one place or job to another for the sake of material gains. It happens everywhere and at the cost of having a tough and hard life but we keep on doing that. I remember a long time ago when I was attending a sitting session with a great intellectual of our earlier times. He asked all of us being Representatives of Youth.

He asked us a simple question that was outwardly simple but carried a great Wisdom Path. He asked us all as if why we were losing our Precious Lives and Present Moment for the sake of gaining high salary jobs, and to upgrade our Social Status. Everybody tried to give answer but I was silent not because I had followed his hidden point, but due to the fact that I was always on the point to live a peaceful life, and if prosperity comes as ALLAH’s Will then we need to be thankful for it. But not to follow the blind path of Success that might lead us to distresses and depressions.

Now the question arises as why we are fighting this battle of hardships as to win some name, and to get more luxuries. Isn't it an irony that we do not know as if we would be alive on the very next day? But we keep on striving on this strange path of so-called glory and growth? Dreams and Desires are unlimited, and who will make a fine balance to let his or her SOUL all in Peace? Modern world with attractive gadgets all around make us all blindfolded to keep on moving on a path that might not be meant for us. Here I would tell you few harms of this unnecessary battle of Material and Social Growth!

Losing the Creative Self

Yes! We are losing the creative minds and the motivation to do something so awful that the world will remember us. We are only longing for comforts and luxuries and do not want to learn new arts, and to get into world of charismatic creativity for the sake of it any more!

Social Isolation and Increase in Psychological Issues

Now people don’t have time to spend with their loved ones as everybody says around “Time is Money”. But have you seen that the distraction and ignorance has caused a whole generation of direction-less Youth. Now old people live in Old Homes and nobody bothers the psychological and Soulful needs of another person!

Sense of Materialism Prevails on a Larger Scale

Now look at the motives and hidden truth behind all our moves. We want to be social in order to get any sort of benefit for future. We do not concentrate on agonies and pains of others, and just try to be friends for good worldly reasons.

I have highlighted some major issues that the whole world is facing in terms of Humanity and losing connection with Hearts, Minds and Souls of others. We have lost the true value of precious love that had an ability to bind us together in families, groups and societies for better reasons. Now we see the chaos all around, and people gather to protect their rights or to gain some negative motives. Spirituality and Mysticism has lost its value, and we can’t find any more people so easily who are having Divine Light with them, to heal our souls and to direct us towards Peace of Mind as well!

Nowhere is Somewhere?

I don't know why I chose this heading but it is so significant to me that I wanted to share some thought with you all. It just happens in someone's life that he is on a brink of new discovery or a loss of something very precious. Actually it happens with many people but some don't bother to keep on harping around the same topic or life event. While here are people like me who got stuck in something and cannot come out easily. Losing something special or a even having a relation gone out of life is very difficult to carry on. 

If you are stuck in a situation where you can't see the upcoming joys and charms of life and feel that this moment is everything and that losing it means an end to s chapter of life that will not return. So it is not a great deal to just enjoy happy moments but it is also important to stay in that very moment, to cherish it fully. When you are in new situation then don't regret that time which was golden and that is gone. It is due to the fact that every single moment is precious and carries its own beauty. 

Feeling are important when you are in a situation where there is no way to be out of it is something really very difficult. I can empathize with all those people who are going through the sense of loss, and it is due to the factor that I used to live in past and kept on feeling the pain of loss that was significant but wasn't helpful to me in anyway. I am not an expert who can give you solid tips but I know one thing for sure that whoever feels like standing nowhere must need a consoling shoulder or a listener. I know that it is self destructive to live in a static condition of self denial or self pity.

It is an important thing to need a positive approach towards future events and a feeling that YOU are too good, and something really GOOD is going to be here for you.  When you visualize yourself doing different life activities then you will definitely get up and start your journey to a destination that might just be in your mind, and your active proceeding will give it real life. You can overcome your all sorts of grief, loss and sufferings if you know that life keeps on leading all human beings to somewhere.

This the true destination of everyone's soul and it is a place that will give you peace and satisfaction. If you catch that Divine Light and know that there is a ultra superior force up there supporting you then you will be re-empowered to shake all negativity and hopelessness, and you will rejuvenate for a travel that will take you to an eternal paradise. 

You will come to know that all pains and sufferings are temporary as same like the joys and happiness that everyone faces even for few moments. You will be happy and and in peace with your self and won't complain for happening that are not only happening to you but so many people around the globe this time and for an unlimited time in history.
