How many times has life disappointed or we have disappointed life? Either way, we are each a piece of failure until we actually become successful, until we make something out of ourselves.
We think if we attain physical fitness, that would be it! We think if we can cultivate love and marriage in the relationship, that would be it! We think if we can win the Nobel Prize, that would be it! We think if we make money like Bill Gates that would be it!
But what happens when we attain that goal? We immediately start searching for a new record or goal to break or attain.
Why are we not at peace with ourselves? What is it that we really crave? Can that be satisfied with the material gains and the physicality of our existence?
The truth is we are souls, not bodies, not minds, not emotions. We are fooling ourselves by hiding the truth from ourselves. And until we seclude ourselves to know the answer comes from ourselves, we’ll keep running after the crazy ideas.
Evolution and God-realization is a natural process. If we keep following the natural course of life without much interference from beliefs, and falsehood, we will eventually get where we were supposed to reach.
