The Permanent Solution – 23 (A philosophical short book)

If you boast of scientific progress, please bear in mind that whatever progress mankind has achieved through science, has potential to destroy entire mankind itself ! The use of highly devastating atomic arsenals is, after all, governed by human beings or thinking of the persons who have control over such arsenals. Thinking, therefore, if not controlled well, can spell mass destruction of this living planet. Again, how far has this scientific progress assisted in reducing internal tensions, in getting internal satisfaction, in having peaceful life? The truth is, persons who are more exposed to industrial revolution work under more psychological pressure which is one of the unwelcome feelings! Are you gaining or loosing?

The Permanent Solution – 22 (A philosophical short book)

Another way to counter materialistic ego is to realize your exact status in this cosmic system. Where do you stand in the cosmic system which is so gigantic? What is your position in the entire universe which is comprised of huge stars and planets, located at distances which ordinary person, like you and me, can never think of? Where does the solar system stand in the cosmic society? Then the earth? Then your nation, your state, your district, your city, your house and ultimately you? Not even a point on the map of entire universe.

The Permanent Solution – 21 (A philosophical short book)

Another major obstacle in seeking divine happiness is ego. Ego too, is one of the fantastic creation of mind itself, which is pampered through out in your pursuit of happiness. Ego tries to develop feeling of self importance. Many times ego defies all sorts of logic just out of fear of loosing importance and deprives you of having the pleasant experience which you could have had otherwise. Any spiritual aspirant, even materialistic person for that matter, has to control his egoistic whims through excellent reasoning. As you will discover if ego projects itself directly in opposition to life, knowledge, power etc., it usually gets defeated.

The Permanent Solution – 20 (A philosophical short book)

By now it should be crystal clear that the feelings related to happiness, sorrow, grief etc. are entirely the creation of mind itself and mind plays pivotal role in controlling your outward visible actions. In fact, any physical action is possible only if the decision to that effect is taken by intellect and then passed on to mind for taking necessary action. It attests to one more important principle of Indian philosophy which states, “Mind is the sole cause of liberating or unleashing the flow of eternal, infinite, divine happiness and of bondage through short-lived, rubbish, ravenous material happiness which always culminates into sufferings, miseries and puts soul into unending, soul-searing cycle of birth and death.”

The Permanent Solution – 19 (A philosophical short book)

To start with, any spiritual aspirant must adopt following steps.

1. You must contemplate regularly and again and again on basic objective of each and every living organism, which is nothing but to seek its own happiness. Therefore, stop thinking that someone from mayic arena can be your well-wisher or can be your friend. Repetitive contemplation is necessary because you, in the absence of adequate defense, would find it difficult to cope up with material attractions.

2. You need to understand that whatever happiness you receive from material objects and persons is short-lived, evanescent and will never make you happy forever and therefore, there is no point in accumulating more and more of any of material objects.
