“Mennu ehh vi
Chahida, Mennu Oh Vi Chahidaa, Mennu Chahida Chahida Chahida…….”
(I want this, I
want That, I want, I want, I want)
A human soul is the slave of his/her desires. As a human, I
always am in the need of this and that, and more than my need, it is the want
of anything new, anytime and everytime. The human desire is that feeling which
makes you crib for something till a point you do not have it. And as soon as
you possess the thing, your soul starts cribbing for another desire to be
fulfilled.
These desires, range from having a big car, big house, huge
money, success and position and a lot more. This desire to have something which
you dream, has no end. Once you have one thing you start desiring something
bigger. It never cedes away. Just make you restless till you achieve the thing
you want.
We often see people unhappy, unsatisfied and complaining
about their current life, for the things they do not possess. But no one is
seen being thankful for the things they have. This desire is unlimited. If you
have all the wealth in this world, you would have the desire of something or
the other. No one remains satisfied for long, you too will not be satisfied if
you keep running in this mad race of desire. This cobweb of desiring something
or the other will not let you calm down, ever.
This means, this cobweb is a deadly disease, a disease
without any cure….
What should be done about it? When a doctor is unable to
find the cure of some disease or deformity, he/she tries to use the strength of
the disease or the deformity to be transformed into a less deadly one, so that
a person is harmed to the minimum. If someone’s blood pressure increase without
any reason and do not come down, he recommends taking less salt in diet, to
neutralize the effect of higher pressure in veins as salt increase the
pressure. Similarly, we cannot make our soul free from desires, but we surely
can use this disease of cribbing to our benefit, if we start having realistic
and useful desires, the desires, which make our personality more favorable. It
can be the desire to know everything, to increase our knowledge, to have
fluency of language, to be well versed in an art, to be someone who helps
everyone, to be a great motivator, to have success, but in a way that it do not
harm other people and to have happiness and contentment in life, at last…. And
even can have the desire to meet god at spiritual levels, to have their
blessings and to seek their support..
By channelizing our desires towards the right thing, we can
atleast use this cobweb to the best of our favor and to lead a happy, satisfied
and a calm life, which we always dream of…
