Serve Self

Article Summary by: ashwani    

Original Author: ashwani
Self serviceServe society Serve soulMany often refer to God as Almighty, shapeless, beautiful, handsome, endless,
and thousands of such adjectives are used. Somehow I could not develop that kind of ability to analyze God. I am not a man of sciences and even do not know bit of that. But some rationality has crept in with passage of time. I understand the mechanism of existence. That too, have started learning more clearly now. So far, many factors were responsible for upbringing, but now this addition makes me feel, mature enough to understand more clearly. Mechanism of motives is as natural as is Sunlight or blowing wind.All directions and behavior are emerging from motives, right from individual to that of community, society and countries. These are often called as self-interests. Struggle for meeting self-interests, if clothed properly- remains accepted most often. And more over, if balanced-every thing remains cool and peace in relationship exists. But this presumption is not realistic. Every individual is born with different genetic deficiencies or surplus. And accordingly behaves. Either as contended or having urges to earn, or learn or do both, starve or fulfill or do both. Saint Morari Bapu narrated sometime back that one needs to be samyak consciously. I understood a great message in that. He uttered telling that `Assurs` will consume the most as per the physical or psychological needs.`Devs` manipulate to serve themselves. And the rivalry continues. The moments of contentment with both are rare.Where is the solution?Solution suggested is serving self that is gratifying your needs. And also serve your society. Community, country. And human being. But- at the same time, keep cleaning your soul and consciousness. All three must continue simultaneously. Without purifying your soul, you will not be able to do justice to self and society. And at the same time, without serving self, you will not be able to do anything for society. So distribute your attention to these three aspects consciously. Mind you, the process of purifying your soul is as vital, like serving God. And I assure you God will be very happy, if we achieve a balance.
