...We allow our Morals and Values to succumb to the greed of Possessions. We limit our Intelligence with the absence of appropriate Knowledge & substitute the same with worthless Speculation! Why?
The Modern We are so engaged in our daily errands that we hardly have enough time on our hand to focus on anything for a steady duration. We are constantly fire fighting situations at work, besieged in time management, concerned about our reputation rather than character & striving to strike a balance between our family & social life. So much so, that we barely devote enough quality time to thank the All Mighty! Why?
But yet we manage a lot of time to incessantly bribe the Lord to improve our existence! How?
Have you ever taken a child shopping? The child repeatedly asks for one thing & then the other & then another. Even if you negotiate for just one thing it will show keenness to buy another as soon as you have bought him one. That's the way a child is; always looking for more, desiring for extra. Now – imagine yourself in that child's place repeatedly asking for things from God. How irritating it would be for him that we constantly keep our hands spread out; asking for more & more.
God's response would be, "I have given you everything you need; your want is your concern!"
Today, we are so ritualistic in our approach that we forget the Spiritualistic aspect! Our orientation towards rituals is so extreme that we get disintegrated spiritually! We concentrate so much on the process that the spirit in itself starts to get feeble & our spirituality ends the moment the said ritual is over!
