Dear Friends,
We all sends greetings to our loved one indicating "Happy New Year" every year but does this greetings of New Year is really a happy part of us is a question which I have tried to explain this post titled "A Meaningful New Year".
Gladness and happiness are the two important parts in our life.We always try to be happy at all the times but it is also found that sometimes we pretend to be happy and we are not actually from inside.I believe that happiness must come from within i.e. internal on the other side it is not so always.We meet friends , relatives , brothers and sisters and their presence makes us happy for a moment but after sometimes the situation becomes similar to the condition we were earlier.Life is full of emotional attachment with our near and dear one,we feel happy when we get attached to someone but suddenly we feel very much sad when we depart from each other,this is life all about.I had thought that we must enjoy meeting others and also enjoy that separation as this will again leads to a bond of reunion in future .As you would have experienced ,there are many people ,incidents or experiences that have satisfied you emotionally.The mental satisfaction is precious and rare.Those who have it are really Happy People.
As we all are stepping in the New Year -2013 and eagerly waiting for the moment that we can have the celebration of 31st December night followed by New Year celebration and entering the New Year-2013 with rejoice, happiness and cheers.It is good to have such beautiful moments of happiness but is that thing leads you to mental satisfaction or just for the fun and passing time we are momentary happy and then again we will be coming back to square one where we have started.I was very much shaken by the incident that took place in the last month of this year 2012 in Delhi the capital of India that have stirred whole country and raised the question that where the mankind is going and in which path we all are progressing.At both the ends i.e. victim and the culprits they belong to the same society where we all resides,and what makes them to do this heinous crime shows the state of mental imbalance of the minds of wrongdoers.Now look again and try to answer where the happiness is? I think that it is purely missing at both the ends.
On a quick review I don't think that being happy from outside and not from inside is real happiness.We all are conditioned to think that our lives always rotate around great moments.Real mental satisfaction leads to happiness and to achieve it man have to look towards the path of Dharma or Spirituality because it is that area which gives us peace,mental satisfaction and also teaches us to become a responsible person which is above all and then only it would be a "Meaningful New Year" otherwise this coming year will also be like the yesteryear's that have passed without any impact in our life.
In anticipation that you would have understand the real sense of a "Meaningful New Year"
Happy New Year -2013
