WEALTH, HEALTH AND HAPPINESS



Everyone nowadays is working hard for wealth. Most people are doing extra work to accumulate wealth. More you get, more you desire...a never ending process. Everyday new things are added in your list of purchase. You are never satisfied, even how much you have, still the desire is here to get more and more. During this running after wealth, more energy is being drained, health is deteriorated. Still you are not conscious about the torture you are doing to your physical body. The physical body is a temple. It's delicate and you have to take care of it. This body is more precious than wealth.

We do need wealth but we have to be fit also. Without a good health, we won't be able to work. We have to live a well balanced life. If everything is well balanced, then wealth is here, health is here, happiness is here. Nowadays most people are in the rush to be richer and richer without considering the bad effect it will cause to their health. This physical body is not a robot.

God has given this physical body to you for other purpose. Every moment, He is whispering within you, reminding you why you are here for, but you don't care about that. You are too busy with your material life and you think that you are doing the right thing. Every action you do, you see the reaction coming to you after.   But still you continue on doing it.

God has given you this physical body. God has given you the oxygen you breathe. God has given you Cosmic Energy for the movements of your body. Still you find that all this is yours and you forget Him. If all of a sudden, He takes out oxygen and Cosmic Energy from this physical body, then what will be your state. What will you do with your wealth. Even with your wealth, you won't be able to buy all these. With your wealth, you are limited. You can't buy everything with this.

So why not try the unlimited. God is unlimited. Come back to Him. Be more aware of your existence. Come so close to God that one day, all of a sudden, you find that you don't exist, only God is. This is possible for everyone here. This is the purpose of life. The merging with God. More you go far from Him, more you will suffer and when you are one with Him, then you are blissful forever.
