WHERE OUR SECURITY LIE? [november 2007]

Two event or reading I came across yesterday are cause behind resurfacing of this article. Written somewhere in November 2007 and thrown somewhere in past. Before you read that article, here is a pip into those cause or Nimitah, as per terminology of Indian Scripture. If you are not interested scroll down and read small article separated by an image.

First event occurred in morning. Old friend of mine Mumbai Samachar and I spent few minutes together in morning. Like a habit after glancing at headline, I quickly turned to last page to see one of my favorite writers column 'Good morning'. Written by Saurabh Shah, good morning column brings up various issues, anecdotal records and reviews from films, novels, politics to common observation of daily life.

In a way, after my prayer and all, this article set tone of the day. 

Second event or reading occurred around noon time. This time article wasn't fresh one but little pld. What happened was, last month I had subscribed for newsletter called 'Dailygood' by Servicespace.org

One of the article I had saved on hard drive for later reading. As article was long and mind was wandering and anxious at that time, I had saved it. Yesterday, while searching some other material, I came back to that article. That article is:

I began reading this article from the point I had left it. Some electrifying thing started happening. I am not going to describe all here nor I have capacity and power to describe it. Whatever that was a wonderful experience I passed through for good interval of time. That was time this article written in 2007, resurfaced in memory. Today, I started searching for it on hard drive and cloud. Luckily, I found it on Yahoo, in one of the sent mail. There is small part attach about my current position and future action. As slowly this words are not remaining words but some experience and learning. I am sure more learning is going to follow. so may be soon and may be not, another article with same title.

WHERE OUR SECURITY LIE?

Is it in money, in spouse, parents, and children, in having nice home and home appliances? Where exactly it lie? Oh parampriya, tell me where exactly it lie, where???

Till now in whatever thinks I was telling where our security lie is perishable, then how my security is in it. Wait a minute, but why I need to be secure? Is any need of it at any time, why am I looking and working to secure my place, work, my self and other secure by various ways?

Now, seems it’s imprudent to work to secure life, money and others. It’s like making a golden cage, like to live inside it and say self as having every luxury and enjoying freedom while remaining inside of it. If we so conscious about this relative term security then we are missing something, we are not on the right track any more. Our inherent property of independence and freedom vanishes in running behind the security. Because it’s not absolute thing to have, it always vary relative to something then why we all over and over again thinking and working for it. While our more subtle virtue of freedom lie within it, which is absolute thing everyone has.

Here most of us fail, till date I was also running to make myself secure, but when I ponder on such question again it given some real awkward answer of my question.

My security doesn’t lie in bank-account, in my nice family, nor in my home neither in career or any perishable things which one can think of. It’s deep-rooted in my parampriya, my lord a supreme-soul. Who is not perishable?  To know the real absolute virtue and happiness, an absolute freedom, if we are running for that foolish securities then we are selling our own freedom, slowly we start not living for ourselves but our self. Not working for parampriya only working to find that relative security in something isn’t it. Let me sign off, going in search of that my all hidden absolute virtue. Would you like to come with me??
