Do Gaz Zameen (2 feet land)

by **khajabi** » Thu Jul 11, 2002 8:42 pm

Why on earth does human being runs after things immortal (land, money, fame etc…), the things that brings disturbance in life, that takes away peace of mind and are not going to make him/her remember for-ever. Why a human (both men/women) forgets that one day he/she will DIE and nothing, for which he/she has runs the WHOLE life will go along with them. It will remain back on earth, the only thing you will remain with you is “DO GAZ ZAMEEN”. After sometime, even this piece of land will not be yours!!

Then why human being RUNS after those things in order to achieve (more & more) success, most of the time, leaving devils (shatan) behind. Never thinks what a RELATIONSHIP means and what is your DUTY towards, brothers, sisters, relatives, friends, neighbors on the whole, human beings. I wonder a DAY when everyone remembers that the things they are running for will not come along with him and death is their final destination, where everyone goes alone.

\"Hai justajoo ke khoob se khoobtar kahan - Ab taherti hai dekhiyeh ja kar nazar kahan\" (Haali). The trouble with most human beings is that they are greedy and want to acquire everything. Acquisitiveness, that is, the passion for seeking an increase in wealth, position, the number of adherents or followers or supporters, mass production and mass organization, may affect an individual as such, or it may affect whole societies or nations. Other people\'s example or rivalry in such things may aggravate the situation. Upto a certain point it may be good and necessary. But when it becomes inordinate and monopolizes attention, it leaves no time for higher things in life. A clear warning from a moral point of view that Man may be engrossed in these things till death approaches and he looks back on a wasted life, as far as the higher things are concerned. People dont realize that when the time comes, they will have to leave everything behind and lie in their graves. Mahatma Gandhi once said, \"There is enough for one\'s need in this world, nothing for one\'s greed.\"

Khajabi: Mazurat key saat kuch sher pesh hein: \"Abba Dadda Betey Potey ek ek karkey so jayien gey, Upper nichey mithi hogee hum bhee mithi ho jayien gey, Mithi hee aagaz hey sab ka mithi hee anjaam jahan ka, Mithi hee hey ek haqeeqat baaqi sub ahaas zayan hey, Lekin hum jo uhad waafa hein lafaani hein aur rahein gey, Bazam jahaan key ruh rawan hein lasaani hein aur rahien gey, Khalq Khuda mein mouj hawa hein sozdaron mein nagma jaan mein, Harf wa saada mein lafz wa bayan mein, Kun ki lehrien ab bhee rawan hein, Jesey jesey rut badlegee hum zinda hotey jayiengey, Abba, Dada, Betey, Potey phir peda hotey jayien gey\"

Khajabi, You are absolutely right, Material things do not necessarily bring you happiness. That is a fact of life. It is a hard fact to understand sometimes, especially in a society that tries very hard to teach you otherwise.
It is very common to get into a mode where you think, \"If only I had object X, my life would be perfect and I would be happy.\" You REALLY want something: a new TV, a new car, a special pair of shoes, whatever. Then you buy it and you LOVE having it for a few days. But over time you get bored or it wears out. You can see this pattern repeated constantly in your own life. For example, your parents and grandparents likely spent thousands and thousands of dollars on toys for you as you were growing up: Dump trucks and Barbie dolls and video games and electric cars and on and on and on. All of those toys got boring or broken or outgrown eventually. They brought happiness for a moment or a week, but over time they became worthless and your desire turned to a new object.

The thing about \"wealth\" is that there is more than one way to measure it. Traditionally it is measured in Rupees, Riyals, Dollars, but there are many other scales. You can be \"rich\" in ways that have nothing to do with money. For example:

Rich in friends—A person who cultivates friendships and who is a joy to be around can have hundreds of good friends and can be rich beyond the wildest dreams of others.
Rich in health—A person who spends time eating right, exercising and relaxing from stress can be extremely healthy, and this health can be far more valuable than any amount of money.
Rich in strength—A person who works out with weights every day, runs, swims, etc. can be rich in strength and will have an attractive body.
Rich in family—A person who devotes time to his or her spouse and children will have a strong and happy family that is rewarding throughout life.
Rich in knowledge—A person who reads and studies will become rich in knowledge.
Rich in skill—A person who practices anything daily (a skill, a sport, prayer, whatever) will become excellent in that skill area. Excellence has its own rewards.
Rich in character— A person who works hard at being honest and truthful in all situations will become rich in character and will be trusted by everyone.
One funny thing about all of these different areas is that none of them are taxed. You are taxed on the money you earn, and that is it. There is no knowledge tax, for example. You can learn freely throughout life and acquire a huge \"bank account\" of knowledge. No one can steal it or diminish it in any way. Presumably, knowledge is the one thing you might be able to take with you to Heaven.
All of these alternative types of wealth are different from financial wealth, and yet all of them can be equally rewarding in their own ways. The point is that the act of buying things by itself, despite what television tells you, may not be what will bring you maximum happiness in life. Things like good friends, a loving spouse, well-raised children, a home built on love, a good relationship with God, a clear conscience, a worthy goal and a job you truly enjoy bring you contentment that lasts and has meaning. These things are often very hard for some teenagers to understand, but as you mature they become more important.

As you look at the world around you and come to understand what is important to you, keep these things in mind. Think about what it is that you enjoy and what makes you truly happy. See what you find. In thinking about it consciously, you might be surprised by what you discover. Money is incredibly important—you need it to survive. But it is not the only thing you need, and money itself will not bring lasting happiness to most people. Man does not live by bread alone.

I would like to add one more comment to this. We need to seperate our needs from our desires. This helps in acheiving a balance of life. Most often in India we were encouraged to focus on spirituality than material aspirations. Although it is true, the same is not true for everyone. For example, in the west it is easy to drop materialism and turn to spirituality. That is why we have so many organisations in the west which encourage spirituality.
