GOAL OF HUMAN LIFE

 

Every individual depending on their mental status and will power has

a certain goal to fulfill.

 

Goals of life are of two types:-

 

A] Intermittent goals i.e. Dharm, Arth , Kama, Moksha.

B] Ultimate goal i.e. Moksha

 

Intermittent goal is usually a material goal like becoming doctor,

IAS officer. Such goal gives transient peace.

 

Ultimate goal gives uninterrupted peace of mind for which we travel

through the intermittent goals that is to manifest divinity which is

latent in us.

 

Peace is indeed a projection of human mind. Joy could be direct,

i.e. getting a new car or indirect like winning a lottery.

 

Unlike animals driven by instincts, human being has mind and

intellect. When mind and intellect are allied then there is perfect

peace and harmony. e.g. mind is a river full of emotions and

thoughts. The way river has a dam to control the flow; our intellect

should serve as a dam to control the mind. Hence, intellect should be

developed.

 

A newborn is governed by emotions. As he grows, intelligence grows,

intelligence develops and hence reasoning develops. So, use

intelligence effectively.

 

E.g. In a lake if a stone is thrown, lot of ripples are formed and

hence the mud comes to the surface of the pond. Similarly, a bad

impulse from sense organ [mostly eye and ear] can generate

disturbances in mind. All the hidden previous impressions on bottom

of mind come up and disturb the mind.

 

Hence, clean the mind regularly with Satsang, Discipline and

Meditation (SDM).
