What is worse than death??

Question

What is worse than death??

Answer

Worse than death is not being able to develop a goal and a burning desire in life! Human being is the highest manifestation in the cosmic life cycle. It is only as a human being one can gain enlightenment kaivalya jnana and reach the stage of salvation moksha.brbrGaining enlightenment and finally salvation is no less an achievement. It can be achieved only after having crossed . million manifestations and a total life cycle of . million earthly years. Having manifested as a human being... how is it that human beings while away their life without having a fixed goal in life... a burning purpose... something that makes the present life more enjoyable and livable.brbrIt is this power of discrimination that differentiates a king from a laborer power of discrimination is almost absent in insects, plants and animals... all the lower forms through which all human beings have already passed. Where lay the difference? The difference is only in the mental prowess. The capacity to think... and think wisely is the onus of every human being... a birthright in fact!brbrHuman beings do not manifest the form of a human being just to live for money. Money has never been the goal of wise people... it is only a means to an end! Materialistic gains no doubt are necessary to live a happy life but it is not the end of life as we see it today. The wanton desires not only within children but also adults presents a precarious situation world over.brbrLife is to be found beyond the mundane affairs of life. How many times has one climbed the Mount Everest, surfed beyond the capacity into the high seas, sat by a lonely brook in the high mountains with the Love of your life! Very few in the world are truly lucky to do that! It is these wise men who have finally taken their destiny under control.brbrWhy worry of death which is immanent... it will come one day as it comes to all! As we have the day and night, fire and water we also have life and death... both being different sides of the same coin. Why weep over the inscrutable will of the Creator, the Almighty God who created us all!brbrLet us resolve to develop a burning desire... a goal of life which leads us towards the passion of our life... something we really enjoy doing! It is then we shall truly manifest our destiny and finally overcome the fear of death! More on burning desire here httpwww.vijaykumar.comburningdesirea
