Be simple-Be sample

We live in a society where there are two school of thoughts as far as our standard of living goes.Some of us feel that “more the merrier”, while some of us feel “less the better”.

There is an indepth meaning to these two approaches towards life.With the world around us getting more and more competitive,we are forced to match up to the high standards,which at times get out of our reach and capacity. Today majority of us are stuck into the web of fictitiousness created by us. Hence to liberate ourselves from this web,we need to go back to our roots ,that taught us to “Live Simple and Think High”. But!! Is it feasible to live a simple life under a complicated and confused world? Why not? With strong determination, its not impossible at all,coz simplicity is our originality, so its not a big deal once we realise from within and get back to our roots.

Simplicity enhances clarity of our perception and frees us from the innumerable diversions of desires.When we become simple, our material world also becomes simple and beautiful and there is hardly any waste left in our life,with all our resources, time, thoughts, ideas, knowledge, money  and materials becoming more and more valuable and fruitful for us. There is a common myth among people that if we become simple,then we would be considered stupid or dull. But,we tend to forget a fact that all the research, in the field of science, agriculture, engineering and a host of other disciplines are based on fundamental principles. Likewsie the laws of the universe, are also simple.

Even though we cannot always grasp the wonders of nature, the underlying principles governing the universe are quite simple. When we respect the natural world, the physical world responds in a way that all our physical needs are adequately met. It is only when our own nature becomes complex and polluted by selfish desires that the outer world also appears to be complex. So when we move away from our inner space of childlike simplicity, we divert ourselves from nature and forget the art of working in tandem with the natural world.

Where there is simplicity, there is strength. Unnecessary possessions are considered burdens,that conume our time and energy. That’s why those who have enough but not too much are the happiest people. The classic example of this is lives of saints and leaders, who maintain simplicity in their nature and character. There is nothing mysterious about their motives and methods, but their holiness and greatness stems from an inner purity of purpose which is visible when there is simplicity in character. Hence once we learn to simply enjoy the music of life, there will be no complexity. It is only when we decide to probe the unlimited structures developing from the simple form, we lose sight of the truth and beauty of life .

So! Be Simple to Become a Sample, an example for others to follow.
