Real Life is Trash..!!?
So it started like I was surfing through my newly downloaded app Potterzone when I came across this "you should dream and dream and dream because real life is trash". That really touched me, it's not the first time that I've come across such idea but it's prevalent especially in western side.
Well frankly speaking such kinds of philosophical statements really excites me. So I thought it should be discussed so here I came to put my opinion. Hope it helps.
So let's get started.
What is the meaning of Real life?
It's sad that many of us think that this real life is trash. So much sufferings, sorrow, deaths, weaknesses, etc. We don't get what we wish. We cannot really enjoy what we want to enjoy..so and so...
But in truth real life is not trash. The thing is that what you're calling real life is not real life. You should use more accurate term for life and that is "wordly life". Yes in wordly life you don't always get what you want, you cannot really enjoy what you want to enjoy, even if you do that you'll have to pay its cost... Eat your favourite chocolates all day and night and you'll soon need to get your teeth replaced. Yeah it's sad:/
You want to travel the whole world but alas there's very very little chance that you're going to have that enough money. And the sad part is when you'll able to collect that much money then you might need to carry a chair with you because of you knee problem. So yeah this "worldly life" is pathetic.
Now let's talk about Real life, Real life is comprised of Worldly life plus eternal life. In equation,
R = W + E
In real life the weightage of real life is largely depend upon the factor E, that is Eternal life.
Now what is eternal life, it is the life which is followed by the worldly life. This eternal life is of two kinds. Good eternal life and bad eternal life. Good eternal life is given a name heaven or jannat. Bad eternal life is given a name hell or dozakh.
So let's revise, Real life is not just this wordly life. Indeed worldly life is a part of Real life but it does not completely define real life. Eternal life is major part of Real life. And when you consider that eternal life in real life then you find that there's nothing more beautiful than real life.
Life is created by God, how absurd is to think that He created trash. No, He didn't create trash but He created a beautiful thing called Life. It's our false perception about the Real life that make us think that life is trash.
Inorder to understand Real life, we must have to have knowledge of both worldly and eternal life. It's the worst part that because of overwhelmingly surrounded by materialistic philososphy from school, to media to our very culture, we start to think that Only this worldly life is the Real life. And because of this false notion, all other problems arise.
Once you know the true nature of Worldly life and accept it as it is with truth. And once you understand the concept of eternal life and its bounties then you'll find that there's nothing beautiful than real life.
Dream and dream and dream because Real life is trash. Rather the truth is, it's not the real life which is trash it's the wrong perception about real life which is trash. You are seeing a red object black because you are wearing the blue specs, just remove those specs and you'll find the object is actually red not black.
So is with real life, if you see it with the specs of materialistic and nihilistic philosophy then it appears worthless, boring and trash. But as soon as you start looking it with the truth you get what it actually is.
Is eternal life a matter of dream? No rather your limited perception about real life which is based on ignorance is dream. As soon as you'll seek the knowledge you'll get to know the difference between reality and dream.
What is eternal life. In very very brief, the way you live your Worldly life according to that you'll have to live in eternal life. It's like the law of nature. It's like action and reaction. In analogy, if you board on the train that goes to Delhi then you'll reach Delhi, if you want to go to Mumbai then you'll have to board on train that's going to Mumbai.
The problem arises when people want to go to Mumbai but don't want to board on that train. They board on Delhi train just because it is appearing attractive. Well, what's the point of train being attractive, train is just a medium of traveling, you don't have live in the train forever. So instead of getting into training by seeing its attraction we should get into the train which is going to our desired destination.
So is this life we all want to go to heaven but we don't bother to do good deeds. We get deceived by Worldly life, as though we are going to live here forever. No not at all, we're not going to live here forever this worldly life is just like the train, this is just a medium of journey. We're journeying towards our eternal destination. So instead of doing things which we find attractive, we should do things which are right. Attractiveness might give short term pleasure but it's only right things and good deeds that gives peace.
Okay so what's good thing, how to live good. So again in very very brief in one sentence "be submissive to God" (incase if you don't know, what God is, how to be submissive, how would I know if I'm on the right path, so for that you can ping me, I'm trying to make an ebook anyway).
Well don't think that God is in need of our submission. See God made us, so he knows what's good for us and what's bad just like the maker of a machine knows what's good for machine and what's not. So when he commands us to do something, it's not for his benefits but for our benefits. But we, being ignorant as well as stubborn think it our insult to obey God. However it's the greatest pride any human being can have to love respect and obey his/her creator.
So in a nutshell, being good means to be humble submissive to God. If you follow just this one sentence then you'll get the complete sense of what's good and what's bad. And the first and foremost thing which comes under this is that never make anyone else equal to God.
It's ironic that reading such things look like a children's moral story book. You'll get people saying that "be practical in life you can cheat fraud, deceive, insult others, be immodest, just enjoy anddo whatever you want to do YOLO.... it's common.." These are same people who would later say that life is trash. So don't be deceived by them.
Whether you accept the reality or not but it is the truth. Yes in worldly life, things doesn't work like that. You won't necessarily get good for good and bad for bad. Because it's the life of choices, here everyone is free to do whatever you want to do whether good or bad. But eternal life is strictly connected to deeds. So there you'll only get what you did.
So in conclusion, whether you want to make your Real life Trash or Beautiful is upto you. If you're too stubborn or lazy to understand the concept of eternal life then even "trash" word is small define your pathetic condition. And if you're a seeker of truth, the goodness and righteousness then congratulations "Beautiful" is the small word to define your ecstatic condition.
