Somthing to think about!!!!

Death, as we all know is a sure reality. At the end of ones lifetime a living entity has to leave whatever material possesion he has accumulated and die. At this critical moment of time, nodbody can help you to live longer , even the doctors become helpless. Nor millions of dollars, not the assests , not your family, wife, chlidren, mother , father, or friends can save a person from death, so this reality brings us to a point were we as human beings having an advanced intelligence should think , that if everthing I accumulate by so much of effort is going to be taken away from me then , why should i work for the bare neccessities so hard . One may argue that since the life is short and one is going to die one should enjoy as much as possible at any body's expense. Well it is a very lucrative idea but it is an idea which is full of ignorance and has no reality . People are made to think in this way in todays modern world. This is mainly because the innocent mass of people are led by some ignorant and atheistic , selfish leaders. Young generation who have seen their forefathers, worshipping and following religious principles , do not feel the need to so the same since the world around them does not care for it , the world they live in is full of hypocrisy and ignorance,at every step, so the due of the parents in this age has increased immensely to properly educate with proper reasoning about the religious and regulative principles inorder to avoid them to be pushed into ignorance.


Now from Bhagvat Gita and other vedic scriptures, we get the information, though death is fact, it is not the end of life. A person or a individual we see in this world is a eternal spirit soul, this spirit soul is never destroyed, burnt, wettet, dried or anhiliated, the symptoms of the soul is consiouscess in the body. The nature of the soul is to be blissfull and happy ,hence every individual in this world is searching for happiness,

The search for happiness is not something material , it is the property of the soul. But the major drawback of the modern philosophy is that they are not adequately made aware of these principles and hence they are misdirected to fall in to ignorance. Now one may ask , ok if there is a soul so what is the connection of death? The answer to it is , death is a phenomenon, wherein this soul , changes body and goes to another body according to the activities and desires in his present and previous life. So life of any person who is a spirit soul or the consiouscness and not the body, is eternal and does not end. As per the activities it performs in this life will determine his next life. For example , if a person not considering these things, carelessly , indulges in just eating , sleeping, mating and defending, which pertain to this material body , will have to accept a body of an animal , which has better resources to fulfill the purpose which he is interested in, i.e eating, sleeping, mating and defending. These are the repucursions of living life of so called " enjoy and be merry life is short" , indeed life is short hence one should immediately think of utilizing it properly in Krishna consiouness and not wasting it. For, you do not know , when you will again get a chance of this human form of life with advanced intelligence.

Moreover, if you analyse the life lived by a Krishna consious person and a so called modern man, you will find that even materially , a Krishna conscious person is happier and satisfied than a modern day man , who is always tensed and full of anxiety due to fear and unpredictable future, since he is in ignorance without the wisdom of age old Bhagvad Gita.

So lets analyse the aspects as they stand today.

Modern philosophy,

1. Enjoy, life is short and one day
your are going to die, what is the use of following regulative priciples.

Vedic Philosophy,

1. Human life is meant to achieve Krishna consciousness and elevate to spiritual realm of GOD.

Modern Philosophy,
2. Highly insufficient to explain a logical
explanation of origin of life and
purpose of life.

Vedic Philosophy,
2. Gives exact number , dates and years on the species and the creation of the universe.


Moder Philoshophy
3. Looks very lucrative , but pushes one
into a darkness where people are frustrated
envious, jealous, hypocrates , lusty, and
criminal minded.


Vedic Philosophy
3. Indeed requires some hardwork and effort to understand the philosophy and apply, but makes on self realised of the true meaning of life and it gives happiness if practiced.


Modern Philosophy
4. This philoshopy is based on mental speculation

Vedic Philosophy

4. Philosophy can be realized in its true essence when practiced properly under the supervision of a bonafide spiritual master.

Modern Philosophy
5. Leads to lot of after affects , life , frustration
anger, anxiety, fear etc.

Vedic Philosophy
5. No harm at all, will make person lovable, free from anger and fear.

So it is a point to be thought by intelligent men, whether , it is worth spending the most valuable human form in quest of something that is never going to be true, or to utilize this life for finding out the truth and following them. First step to understanding the absolute truth and end the cycle of birth and death is to understand in toto the philosophy of Bhagvad Gita As it is and try to apply it practically.
