Whenever we have to introduce ourselves, we generally say our name, profession, address, and family. Question is, is it our original identity or acquired identity?
We live our whole life based on acquired identity and the biggest irony is that, after death, we no more call a person with a name. We start giving reference of the body through which we knew him or her. Why is it so! that a person who had acquired everything, suddenly gets referred to as a body only.
Whole life we put efforts to acquire our identity by being body-conscious and suddenly after death, the same body is no more valid. Then it means there is something superior to our body which operates through the body to perform all task and once it leaves, the body is of no use anymore.
*What is it called? who runs our body?*
You call it soul or energy or consciousness which is eternal and never dies and acquires a different body each time it takes birth.
When the soul is born it doesn’t have any labeled identity. But slowly we start acquiring it from childhood to adulthood. All focus is on to nurture body, yes it is necessary to do that but we never think of nurturing our soul, reason! A lack of knowledge.
We run whole life to achieve our materialistic desires thinking that by achieving it we will get happiness, peace, and love in our life but even by acquiring all materialistic things people are unhappy, unfilled, lack of love, no peace in life. Why so?
Yes! it’s important to achieve materialistic dreams but the truth is it can only bring comfort in our life. Then what will bring permanent happiness, love, peace, and contentment in our life!
The answer is, we can achieve it by being soul conscious. The reward of becoming soul conscious is, we can acquire our original quality which is peace, love, happiness, bliss, knowledge, purity and power.
In this world, whatever product humans have developed comes with a manual to help us understand its usage. Similarly, the 'Creator of all souls' is the Supreme Soul, 'God' and spirituality is the manual of God. There is a difference between being religious and being spiritual so don’t get confused. Religious practices may lead us to towards the path but spirituality is the path.
