life without Conflict
Women such as Sita, Lord Ramas's wife, have made their mark in this world. Their fame stayed here but what did they take with them to their next life? They took their mistakes and entanglements (causes; karmas)?
Whether you want liberation (moksha) or not, at least come here and obtain clarification of all your entanglements. You will find all the solutions here. Lawyers will charge you a fee to solve your worldly problems, whereas the solution you get here is priceless. You cannot put a price on this solution. Life is full of entanglements. You are not the only one with entanglements; the whole world has them. The world is a puzzle itself. It has puzzled itself.
Religion comes after true understanding. First you have to learn the art of living. One has to earn a certificate in how to be a parent, before getting married. Life is like an engine but it is meaningless to keep putting gas in the engine and running it without getting any useful work out of it. There has to be a goal in life. An engine will continue to run in vain but you have to get some work out of it. For example you can attach a belt to the engine that will get some work done. Unfortunately people live their entire life and achieve nothing. Rather than accomplishments, they create entanglements, which carry forward to their next life.
People's lives have broken down; they have no clue as to what they are living for. They have no awareness about the reason for a birth in the human form. They are not aware that there is a purpose of human life. What is the goal of the human life? The birth as a human being gives one the ability to choose any future life form, or he can even attain liberation from further births. No one is aware of the essence of human birth and that is why one continues to wander life after life.
Who Will Teach Us The Art of Living?
Today people are not aware of what is beneficial and harmful in life. The ones, who do have such awareness, have made adjustments according to their intellect (buddhi). Their awareness is worldly in nature because it is for attaining only worldly happiness. In reality, even that is not correct. Correctness comes only when one learns the art of living. One becomes a doctor or a lawyer and yet he does not learn anything about the art of living. He learns and masters all kinds of arts except the art of living.
This art is learnt by approaching the one who is living his life well. Ask such a person to teach you the art of living. Ask him how to conduct your life; then you will learn that art. You need to seek out someone who has mastered this art. Unfortunately, no one seems to understand the need to do so. They have totally discarded the importance of the art of living, haven't they? Those living around me will learn this art. However, I cannot say that absolutely no one in this world knows this art.
If a person learns the art of living completely, his life will be easy but he will definitely need religion along with it. Religion is the base for the art of living and it is a necessity. By religion, here I am referring to the code of conduct as prescribed by God. One need not pursue the path of liberation. You must understand the prescribed commands of whomever you have faith in, be it Lord Mahavir, Lord Krishna or any other God. If you cannot practice all of their directives at least practice some. Now if celibacy is one of their directives and you get married, then that would be contradicting their directives. In reality there is no contradiction; all they are saying is that you should adjust to the commandments to the
