What are we seeking?

Every day we rise in the morning and with that starts the circus we have put ourselves into. Flurry of activities to be done occupy the mind. Ticking of the clock keeps reminding us what has to be done and what to be skipped.

We are just living like a sophisticated designed animal that can express widely but has forgotten that aspect inconveniently. Expressions are not the exercises our minds used to emerge into anymore; it’s just the exasperated anguish of our hearts and mind.

It brings me to this central question which has occupied my mind ever since I have started thinking where will I collide eventually.  What am I seeking?

All the religious scriptures offer a rather common view of divinity is the final destination. Material ideas of a place called Heaven. Am I running day in day out to reach a place I have no idea about?

Religions have made God a very expensive commodity that is not available unless the prescribed rituals are followed or certain acts are orchestrated. Is that the ultimate culmination of the purpose of life?

Money, Success, Position, Power they seldom satiate our constant need to move on. These are just benchmarks of the process. Does this process have an end? Do we really know what are we really seeking?

We are exactly same like the Deer running in the forest trying to find the Kasturi which is in its own belly. We are trying to find ourselves. The process we seldom realize is the upliftment of the self. We lack at introspection. The idea of even sitting alone doing nothing gives us a squirm. We are so busy doing other things that our own self is neglected.

Gym and playing games is a very healthy practice for our bodies. Do we exercise our brain, intellect and thoughts equally? Do we really bother what forms our thought process, why do we take positions that we take.

Today the world is really a very small global village with communications. But, humans are far away from themselves to be close to others.

The popular term “Mid Life Crisis” is nothing but a position where you feel satisfied with what you have achieved as off now, but when you look back you feel was it worth all the sacrifice? Was this my goal when I did start with life? Is this what I want to die doing?

Let’s give a little time to ourselves to realize what we need. If you really can answer what you are seeking, you will understand the purpose of life is bettering yourself to better the environment.
