When you are satisfied …..
Deutronomy 6 : 1-25
When and what is our
state of contentment ?
Have we achieved it in our life time, or in
any time of our lifetime ?
One factor which enables us or at least
help us in achieving contentment and fulfillment is when we are in conformity with the rules and
regulations which procure the necessary
atmosphere and environment to make it happen. The accepted norms become
laws and then the laws regulate the society on these accepted and proven
commandments. Therefore adherence to these commonly respected rules must be
given due respect and must be admonished that all follow them for the ultimate
benefit of the society. Just a single
person, a single stone thrown at a person or car, can result in utter chaos
resulting in violence to man and
property and to the economic unstability of the country.
1.
The trust in your God and
following the characteristic of that God , solves all problems. There are no
evil Gods.
2.
Remember the Sabbath day, to
keep it holy.
3.
Do not take God’s name in vain.
How we swear on
God’s name without any respect for the name. We never like our name to be added
to anything frivolous and trivial or used for amusement and entertainment of
others. You want your name to be taken with due respect and honour which you
think you deserve, you think is your fundamental right in a democratic republic
in the 21 st century.
4.
I am a jealous God.
( This jealous nature is
not as our comprehension of jealousy. If
your child is snatched away by cruel people, what will the mother do ? Here the similarity of a shepherd comes in.
The nature of the true shepherd and the false shepherd are described in Ezekiel
34:1-10 and 11-
The same jealousy for
retrieval is described in Isaiah 11, 52,53,
61, 63, 64 etc
The Book of Malachai shows
how the holy institution of priesthood and family have deteriorated and remain so, even in the
21 st century with all sophistication and advancement in knowledge, skill and
technology, but lacking proper understanding of human mind, with all its
emotional, psychological , spiritual thirst for fulfillment within the freedom
of family and for the upliftment of
society eradicating false notions and traditions with mutual respect and appreciation. It is high time that all
search the scriptures , since all are literate.
)
5.
Honour you father and mother
that it may be well with you.
It appears so superfluous to tell mature, knowledgeable
sons and daughters that they must honor their own father and mother. How come
it had to be so specified and admonished to all generations. Genesis 6: 5,6
says, “ Then the Lord saw that the
wickedness of the man was so great in
the earth,
And that every intent of
this heart was only evil continuously and the Lord was sorry that He has made
man on this earth and He was grieved in
His heart. “
If our founding fathers of
our nation come to visit us, will they be delighted to see that we have
preserved and enhanced and nurtured the principles of the Preamble of the
Indian Constitution. Will they be thrilled that Gandhji’s Harijans and the
deposed royalty , the common men and women and children are enjoying the
dignity , which is their due in the free India. All their prison life,
their abdicating their luxurious life and donating their family heritage, and career for the liberty of their fellow men , has it brought forth
the desired result or will they repent that they labored in vain. When we do
something, we want the acknowledgement. But we cannot forget the ways in which
we have reached thus far and we have the responsibility to pave the way for the
future generations to aspire and achieve their dreams, leaving enough of
desirable treasures and skills and technology with which they can achieve
higher heights, so that they can look back and exclaim, “ Our fathers and
forefathers have left us such a rich, noble legacy that we are eternally
indebted to their traditions and
performances.
When we go through the
news everyday in the paper, TV and
radio, do we really wish that our children should follow the behavior patterns
of our present day leaders in the various spheres of life, irrespective of
caste, creed, religion, color and culture. Do we leave or intent to leave a
meritorious, noble, moral legacy for our progeny. When our children and
grandchildren discuss about their parent and grandparents. Will they be able to
keep their head high or will they be ashamed of our character.
Whether royalty, or tribal
or eastern or western, how do our children think about us. It is high time that
we look into ourselves and put mark instead of putting mark on others. They can
do better without outsiders evaluation, let each assess their own character,
behavior and code of conduct. Then
suddenly the whole nation will be upright and noble and majestic and
trustworthy. And other nations will be envious to become like us.
6.
You shall not murder.
This appears to be so
frivolous to tell adult people that they should not murder. Everybody knows ,
even small children know. B ut
because the adult often seem to forget it,
it is proclaimed as a rule !!. Murder can be with lethal weapons, can be character assassination, can be murdering with violent vocabulary and with
high tones and frequencies !! Modern revelation
that the water is very responsive to the words of kindness, love, or
hatred and abuse, and correspondingly
since our body is 70 % water, naturally we can conclude that the content, the
volume, the pitch, the emotion hidden in it are also affecting favorably or
detrimentally our body, mind and soul. The physical wounds heal, with
proper care and rest but how to heal the
mental agony and torture. Only those who have undergone them, can feel it ,
specially if the torturing was just to know whether deep down in the heart there is wickedness which we are
covering and pretending to be good !!! How the experiments have gone up on human beings by the specialists. Emotional
quotient, suffering quotient, perseverance quotient, stamina, hunger, thirst
and implanting chips to know what is going on
in the mind to make sure that one is evil or not , the modern experiments goes on unwanted things. ( The most surprising thing is that those who
do this, consider themselves as saints and angels. The angels and saints never
do such wicked things. So the whole process has gone avry. ) The
only solution and remedy is love and trust. Then all aspects of life proceed
smoothly in confidence, in peace and
harmony. How much time, money, man hours
are wasted for these silly experiments. Let us build a families, societies,
factories, offices, government based on trust, faithfulness, justice, liberty,
freedom and human dignity.
7.
You shall not commit adultery.
This is definitely to
adult married men and women !!!Therefore each and every man and woman decide
for themselves to indulge in this or
not.
8.
You shall not steal.
We always admonish our
children not to steal . At the same time
we break it ourselves in high places. With self discipline we can
completely prevent it.
9. You shall not bear false witness against you
neighbor. Neighbours are always around us
, with so many request for companionship, for material assistance, for
moral support, for advise on difficult matters, for medical and engineering
skills, for upliftment of social and family harmony.
10. You shall not covet your neighbour’s wife,
you shall not desire your neighbour’s house,
his man servant,
his maid servant,
his ox, his donkey, or anything that is
your neighbours.
( In modern times, the possession of people
has increased so much, that it is difficult to name all. Some still grab not
only neighbours possessions but the possession of strangers, foreigners, tourists, even body, mind , spirit, talents, etc are at stake. Let us
be content to work and earn what we need since all opportunities and raw
materials, instrumentation, technology, skilled man power, monetary resources
etc are at our disposal.
Apart from these ten simple rules, which we
can easily follow, provided we have
little diligence and self control,
all other things we can pursue and
live a normal contented life. If we do not meddle with others life,
without any provocation from their part,
we are behaving criminally, interfering
with their privacy and freedom to live in our free country. Following these simple
rules will make the society crime free, nations devoid of war, family in
perfect unity. What more do we need ?
The key is with each of us. “ One
misbehaving cell “ causes cancer, in
society , as in our body. One broken
part makes the whole body lean to that side to protect and support it to
relieve of the pain and pressure so that it regains normalcy fast. The cry of the innocent flow through out
eternity as the “ OM, AUM “ once
pronounced goes on and on throughout eternity.
How much we should be careful. The people who understood these
principles and practiced were not as civilized or educated or technology savvy
as we are at present. All the sermons, preaches, shouting, crying, laughter,
merry making, as well as torture sounds have their own place in eternity.
These instructions has to be in your heart.
If we print it, hewn it on stone , or
write on wooden planks, but do not know and practice it, it will be like buying
the prescribed medicine but not using it.
For ourselves, for our children’s sake let us take determined effort to
fulfill all correct measures to ensure safety and security of our future
generation…. The doctor never run to look into the book for the procedural
details while doing surgery, The family
relationships stitching together or taking apart every now and then will be
like opening up the broken parts every day and resetting it or can a plant be
uprooted to check whether there is root. How can healthy growth come from such situations. Sometimes
intelligent men and women become so foolish that their children suffer things
which no other generation has undergone !!! What sophistication !! Worse than
barbarians, and headhunters . Still they
consider themselves highly spiritual, moral. educated, sophisticated society !
THE PLIGHT OF THE POLIGOMOUIS FAMILY !! There is no end to their woes. In
individual families with one husband and one wife, we know the happiness and
the complaints of the husband, wife and children. The time, the attention and care each one demands, and is provided , is so imbalanced because of
the pressures of office, and physical, mental, spiritual shortcomings. One man
meeting the needs of a polygamous family with limited resources, limited time,
limited emotional development etc is very burdensome. We, as a society must
help them to cime out of it. If you are given a free cheque book with full
trust and faith, do we misuse it. WE NEVER WITHDRAW the whole money from it. If we are allowed to marry 4 times, we can
determine with self will that we will maintain one single wife and her
children. Similarly there are so many laws and regulations , which because of
their lack of usefulness, we make amendments. If
all concerned take a proper decision on the divorce, triple talaq, polygamy, we
can save our muslim families from this never ending cry of talaqued women and
manmade orphans, ( father is alive, but they arte equal to orphans ) All these
agonized soul cry will never leave the eather realm. It will be there for
eternity mingle with the 5 times prayers, OM and the Qurbana of Christians, The
chanting of Sabarimala Ayyappa, the chanting of Hare Krishna , Rama Rama and
other saintly voices of prayers. The
eather realm will be like a battle field with these mingled human voices.
The funniest part is that when we do these,
our mind is at rest. Our family is at peace. Our society thrive. Everything
will be well with us in all spheres of life.
If we do not do, the
repercussions are also for ourselves only !!!
Another important thing is that we should
maintain that peace, prosperity and harmony, specially when we are enjoying all
the benefits bountifully….. The temptation to go astray is so much that it
really destroys the weak personalities. They want to experiment to see whether
they can manipulate to make some commit unwanted things. Just be wary of them
and resist and determine in your mind
that you will keep yourself pure as Daniel dis and others will not be able to
over power you. It is a very difficult
world where evil lurks , so be on constant vigil to protect yourself and your
loved ones. Until the day we can trust
whole heartedly, we must be vigilant. Will that day come ? It can come if we
decide. While driving car on the road,
can we be negligent even for a single moment. It will result in fatal
accidents. Life is a journey which should be undertaken with constant
vigil irreproachable care with
gentleness when necessary and firmness when necessary to lead a faithful life
which will benefit ourselves as well as our family and nation.
For the continuity of maintenance of peace,
all these simple rules must be transmitted to the next generation and they in
turn to their descendants and so on. When we send our children to school, the
teachers will start from the very beginning , all the alphabets and numbers.
They never say that because your father and mother know these, we will not teach you the alphabets and the numbers.
Will they say, ‘Let us start with the theorms
or with Shakespearean dramas ? Hence the importance of all moral and
spiritual laws also to be taught to all
children for a strong, confident, vibrant, just and noble personality
development. If they are morally right and strong, they can overcome all
temptations on personal life, business life, research life, office or
government life and gradually the whole world will come to take notice of this
just, noble, righteous, fair - dealing
country and they would like to have friendship and business and
educational and research ventures together with us . The world has enough and
more material goods, precious stones, oil and natural gas, The world need men and women who will stand up for righteousness ,
integrity, so that the world peace is
attained and maintained without another world war, but by following simple
rules of everyday life in their own respective countries so that one country’s
peace does not become an other country’s
responsibility and burden. Can another
person be in charge of your family ? If so , your family life is doomed. Same with countries also. Will anybody give
authority of their company or school or factory to any strangers who have no
grasp of the institutions concerned !!!!! Then why do people interfere with
other families and personal life. Who gave them authority . Will they take orders from strangers.
Where is freedom?
Where is liberty ?
Where is independence of India ?
Is it turning feudal ?????????
Who are the feudal lords ?
