THE BEAUTY OF LIFE

Life is a complex blend of opposites—good and bad, joy and sorrow, success and failure, hope and despair. It is within this contrast that we find the essence of our existence. The good, marked by moments of ease, peace, security, and happiness, is inherently beautiful. It is in these moments that we feel the fullness of life and its potential. Conversely, the bad, shaped by regret, sorrow, failure, and disappointment, presents life in its most challenging and painful forms. This, we often perceive as ugly, because it disrupts our sense of balance and fulfillment.

However, the beauty of life does not reside solely in the good moments. Life becomes truly meaningful and fulfilling when it transcends these surface opposites. A life is beautiful not only when it is filled with joy, but when justice is served, when truth is cherished, and when peace prevails. It is beautiful when society is fair, when people can trust in the integrity of others, and when the economy allows individuals to thrive and reach their potential. It is in the harmony between personal fulfillment and societal well-being that the true beauty of life is revealed.

An excerpt from: Evergreen Roses of Wisdom

                                                    THE ESSENCE OF HUMANITY

Humanity lies at the core of hearts and minds, crowning intellect, knowledge, and education with honor and glory. A mind devoid of humanity is like a waterless well, destined only for disappointment. To spotlight this statement, humanity is the essence that resides at the heart of every soul and the foundation of every mind, elevating intellect, knowledge, and education to their highest potential, adorned with honor and glory. It is this compassion and empathy that transform mere intelligence into true wisdom. Without humanity, the mind is like an empty, barren well, devoid of the life-giving waters of kindness and understanding. Such a mind may seem vast but is ultimately hollow, destined to yield nothing but disappointment and isolation. True greatness arises not just from what we know, but from the depth of our care and connection to others.

Intellect, knowledge, and education gain true meaning, depth, and purpose when coupled with compassion and understanding; otherwise, they risk becoming mere noise, like empty drums.

Third Excerpt from INTO THE SHADOWS, INTO THE LIGHT

“What is your version of a leader?” asked the driver. 

“I believe,” was my explanation, “a leader should have an immense, a profound conscience that can see and understand his people’s problems and care for. 

“Do you mean he should be a versatile?” 

“Multifaceted and resourceful he should,” responded I, “ but it’s not a great virtue.” 

“Why not?” asked he. 

“Because all the resources he needs are waiting for him on the wings. For example, if he is not good at politics, he can hire an excellent politician. If he doesn’t know economics, he can avail himself of prodigious economists. If he isn’t well informed of educational theories and developments, he can make use of very talented educationalists. If he isn’t talented at psychology or sociology, or philosophy, or science, or other important fields of knowledge, he can take advantage of many experts in these fields and domains...” 

“Then this leader is a jack?” he interrupted me. 

“But,” I continued, “if this leader is not a man of conscience, I’m sure, he will not consult anybody in the matter of conscience, and thus his sense of honesty and justice and prudence will entirely be disputed, and then his people will be in the hands of a jack. 

“But,” he asked, “Do you think it is practical that a leader should see and understand his people’s problems and care for?” 

“My friend, this is a real version of a leadership. Leadership means mountains of responsibilities.

An excerpt from: Into the Shadows, Into the Light

Perhaps God took my comfort and in stead gave me some understanding about life. I understand that people who oppress, rob, rape, kill, sin, and commit similar acts are in perfect disharmony with life and creation. So are the people who are arrogant, greedy, ignorant, etc. They can’t contribute anything to life, but, on the contrary, they devastate life and property of the people, and they are a threat to the people’s liberty, happiness, and comfort. Such wicked characters as Sarwar are heartless creatures from the shadows. In truth, they are so much in disharmony with this life that as if they think of this creation a theater, whose setting is imaginary, whose players are all clowns, whose artistic genre is buffoonish, whose theatrical affectations are nothing but to deceive the audience, and whose audience seems to be all fools; however, it is attended by few serious people who bear and ignore the deception and abuse under the impression that they are dealing with a light comedy, but not a single wise person among them. And what is important about this theater is that it is owned and run by a group of rascals and abusers. Because their deeds are in perfect conformity with this theater.
