Here lies the Truth



The great saint of India Swami Vivekananda once told- Man is marching from Truth to Truth not from error to Truth.
In our day to day life whatever we do irrespective of our work we search the Truth. All of us lead a life that is with Truth only. But we live relatively with lower Truth.
In our day-to-day life we use to say that Sun rises from east and sets on west. Actually neither the Sun rises nor does the Sun sets. The Sun is always in its original position. It’s the Earth which is rotating around the Sun. But according to our knowledge Sun rises from the East is Truth to us. So Truth varies on the manifestation of Knowledge.
As we are growing our knowledge is also refining in the different stages of our life. When we were in Kindergarten we studied A for apple and gradually we came to learn many things by using the letter “A”. So when we were in Kinder Garden the Truth to us was that ‘A’ only stands for Apple and as we grew our knowledge modified by different vowels and words.
When a lady is responding her husband then she is a wife and when she is answering her son she is a mother. So that is a wife as well as a mother, both the appearances are True.
No one in this world is completely perfect. And no one is imperfect also. We all are walking to be a perfect one. We fill a bottle till it becomes full. Just like that there will be scarcity in our life till we realize the taste of “Oneness.” No matter whether we are rich, whether we have enough money for our entertainment or not; at the end of the day we want more and more. Nothing can satisfy us because we always find the neck of the bottle is empty.
We have to look for our Source. In our search for Truth once we will surely find that there is only the Truth. And everything is the layer of our thought that lies over the Truth. It is like the dust lying on the mirror. For this we cannot see our Self. But that dust cannot harm the mirror. As we remove the dust we will see our Self again. The mirror remains the same. It is our thought which always creates problem. The Truth always remains the same and unchanged and untouched like a drop of oil on the water.
When we will end our journey we will find that we are not marching from the Truth to Truth, actually we are theTruth

Very few are there who really dares to conquer life. Most of us try to remain satisfied with what life has provided us. Our search in life mainly remains confined only with the fulfillment of our desire. We spend all our energy, knowledge, experience and time just to satisfy our desires. Is this the life should be?

May be we are a respected person in the society, but does our work and attitude towards life support this? If we try to meet this question with all our honesty most of us will feel that yes we are trapped with the web of our desires that we have so long been weaving. We had been on the run to fulfill our desires only.

Life is short. It’s better to wake up early. We should divert our consciousness towards a meaningful mean to meet the ultimate satisfaction in life. Our knowledge should mature itself enough to reach the optimum satisfaction. Then only we will live a worthy life.

In this world from the time ancient there came many great persons who showed us path to find the solution of life. The persons like Lord Rama, Lord Krishna, Lord Buddha, and Lord Jesus etc. Their path of life was for peace and prosperity. Some of us still may put an argument that it’s too old fashion solution of life. Then my simple answer will be- show me a life that worthy enough the life of such great men. I don’t think we can. So it will be better to start looking at the life with a new vision. Lets do what we were doing, enjoy what we were enjoying but just add that extra vision of life which the great men taught from time immemorial.

The teaching of them is not to walk out from the problems of life but to solve it. We have the right to enjoy and conquer life.
