The way to end sufferings –
Sufferings, mental and physical
afflictions, the pain of separation, grief, poverty, and illnesses are the genuine
cause for the interest in spiritualism, it is the ultimate truth and no one
can deny it. Spirituality is knowledge of self and
God-realization, knowledge about Supreme Being who resides as a soul in living beings;
we are madly driven by the sensual pleasure without the awareness of supreme
consciousness which is the permanent cure for all the sufferings. The practice of Knowledge of self is
definitely not a shallow pond; it is an unfathomable ocean. All the religious practices teach the ultimate objective, that is true enlightenment and liberation from worldly
existence. The practice of spirituality is
definitely not practicing on a particular method of belief or faith which is
more appealing and compatible, and practice on it and if it does not work, leave
it and pick another one. Bhagavan
Krishna says in Srimadh Bhagavad Gita that practicing one’s own Dharma, though practicing
it with flaws is better than following another person’s Dharma with
perfection, which could bring dangerous consequences, Varnna/classes was established
to follow Dharma meticulously, four
classes are established such as Bhramana, Kshathriya, Vaishya and Shudra were
entrusted with certain responsibilities and duties to follow strictly. The Brahmanas were entrusted with the duty of
study of scriptures, promote the growth of Vedic way of living and sincerely
follow Bhraminic rites, the performance of fire sacrifices, share knowledge on
scriptures and Veda, ensure the augmentation of Vedic knowledge and protection
of the same. The Kshatriyas were entrusted
with the duties of protection of Kingdom, implementation of rules and
regulations for the welfare of the people of the country, protection of the
country from its enemies, ensure the prevalence of peace and welfare in the
country. The Vaishyas were entrusted
with the duties of production of grains in abundance; protect the country from famine,
development of agriculture and animal husbandry. The Shudhras were entrusted with the duty of
serving all the three Varnnas with utmost sincerity. Therefore following one’s own duties and
responsibilities which are prescribed in the scriptures only can bring
salvation from repeated births.
