The way to real happiness
It is a common place observation that in spite of apparent worldly prosperity, most people are far from happy. The reason is not far to seek. Material pleasures by themselves do not lead to lasting happiness. Amassing of wealth and acquisition of power bring in their wake other problems which contribute to misery rather than happiness. The conflicts and contradictions in the world of today are attributable to the exclusive pursuit of material pleasures, and the ignoring of the spiritual satisfactions. The remedy for this state of affairs is that man should endeavour to rise above the self and seek a higher life. A necessary precondition for such a higher life is the liquidation of all basic traits to make way for the cultivation of a higher purpose in life.
