Death and Secret of living

Today when I was checking my mail, I noticed a mail from my college friend Shaining. He asked me to spare some moment and help him in his project by answering the question.

What is your Opinion on death and suffering? What keep you going in life? what is the secret of your life?

I got chance to impress someone:):):) How could I let the chance go like that..?

I said,

Death.

On this issue i completely agree with my Guruji's words. He once said, Death is a gate from where either you come back as brand new, or you will reach your destination. (पुनर्नव or अपुनर्भव in संस्क्रुत ) Death is not the end point I say. We faced death many times before and will be facing many times hereafter.

Death just says, "Time up, you need to come again in a new name if you want to reach your destination" or "Congrats..!! you have done it, you need not come again".

Its is like a flight which will take off at a specified time, you need to finish all your work and get back to your place in that flight my Guruji said. This is not our first life; we can make it as a last one by achieving our Goal. We had life before birth, similarly we will be having life after death also. It is just to leave the body and to go to the other one. Just like you get a rickshaw to go to the bus stand from St Alloys and from there you get the bus to Bangalore, there you get train to your city. :):):)

And sufferings are the blessings we get to purify our-self. It is like when we come to earth in this birth, we bring with us all our back profit and loss, just like our brought forward and carried forward. Whenever we get pleasure our profit goes down, and when we suffer, we reduce our losses. When both of our profit and loss get nullified and when we reach break even point we get the real happiness, that we call as मॊक्श and there our life gets it's Goal.. then we will be waiting for Death without any fear.. The Death will be अपुनर्भव.

Secret of life.

Its very simple, i surrender myself to the higher energy. This is the only way to lead our life peacefully. Take all the responsibility on your shoulders, as if you are the person who is responsible for everything; discharge your liability completely. And then once you finish, think that you are just the representative and be quit. Do not take any compliments; submit it to the higher energy (you can call it as God, Boss, or the superior).

I remember the character named भरत in रामायण. He ruled the Kingdom of अयॊध्या when राम had to leave the Kingdom. He placed राम's footwear in the सिंहासन and ruled in the name of राम. Never he said that he is the King but he ruled better than राम himself. When राम came back he submitted all the reward and books of accounts to राम and became his servant.

The secret of happy life is detachment my dear friend. Never attach yourself to the material things. Enjoy life but please be assure that your decedents are not disturbed by your lifestyle.
