goals

it goes without saying

that one's efforts are always towards one's goal

lets look at the kind of goals beings here are setting themselves

as kids it is all about plastic toys

as teenagers its all about parties

as adults its all about gaining as high a position in

society as they can


very few beings here are even contemplating

goals like

breaking out of mrityulok (3-D matrix)

not having to be born here again

in the temporary realm of pain & disease

this is the case

even when they are living in times where

all the pain & suffering of their own and others

is all very clear and out in the open


almost everyone from a sportsperson to a housecleaner gno's

that a goal has to be set first

before any effort can be made to reach it

most are hyperbusy setting & achieving meaningless temporary goals

as soap-bubble-superfluous as

the zillions of silly new year resolutions


surprisingly there is also no real change in goals

despite all the bubble bursting

which always happens in time

the happiness they expect at the moment of reaching their goal

never materializes

whether it be the top of mount everest

or holding the trophy they wanted most

thousands of goals have already been scored in football

but the heavens haven't opened up as yet


at the end of the day

the only difference between all beings

is what goals they set for themselves

You are so inspiring P !

Fulfilling a long term goal was never a priority but that has changed.

You give one so much perspective on real useful goals.

WAH ! WAH ! Kya Baat Hai ! Your words are great !

such a clever examination of the meaningless goals beings are setting for themselves and so humorously worded - "thousands of goals have already been scored in football but the heavens haven't opened up as yet" LOL ! You are so witty & wise !

its beautiful how You present one with a meaningful goal ! a goal which makes sense given the state of this world and the true nature of existence in the 3D matrix ~ the goal of breaking out of mrityulok. am reminded of verse '21' [very cool that it should be verse 21 ;)]of Bhaja Govindam - "punarapi jananam punarapi maranam punarapi jananee jatare shayanam iha samsaare bahudustaare kripaaya paare paahi murare" ~ again & again one is born, & again & again one dies, & again & again one sleeps in the mother’s womb. it is indeed hard to cross this boundless ocean of samsara. oh Murari! redeem me through Thy mercy.

"at the end of the day the only difference between all beings is what goals they set for themselves" what a brilliant statement !

I Bow !

i bow. this is such an intelligent and articulate explanation of the importance of setting and adhering to the real goal! You have the most humorously insightful way of showing how void of PurPose and temporary any goal is excePT those that lead to breaking out of the 3d Matrix.
The verse Pinx shared in her comment is a sweet additional reminder. Your PerfecT awareness, Your unwavering gnowing and Your Practical, light heartedly serious approach to an impractical world are continuously inspiring in all the right ways for all the real reasons P! i bow at Your brilliant feet.

i bow!
Divines words are SO humbling!
ones goals have always been so shallow, superficial and meaningless.
one had no concePT of mrityulok or that breaking out was a necessity let alone a real PossibiliTy until coming across Divine!!!
it is SO kind the way Divine bursts every illusory bubble and PuTs the reality of this existence into PersPecTive!
Your PersPecTive is the only PersPecTive which has real weight and meaning!
You are the only One with the awareness, gnowledge, disciPline and single PoinTed focus to navigate a life with real PurPose!
it is You who have attained the ultimate goal! You who have achieved the only goal worth achieving in this life!
You are the ultimate examPle! the only One to Praise!
it is only You who can insPire one to asPire to the only real goal there is!
only You can guide the way!
i bow!

Gita said...

U have opened my eyes to reality, how shameful are those who set unrealistic goals..

U give weightage to our divine spiritual goals... without U i would be no one..

your assurance in every step of my life is something which is giving me strength to climb up the ladder of evolution..

i never ever want to lose you from my journey of this growth, never ever will i want to forget U , never ever would i want to go away from you.. I want to be under your guidance forever...

MY hand will always be reaching out to U only...

i want to make you my goal i want to be as humble as it gets, i want grow up in my sol and mind and body...

the thought of not having you all these years in my life is soooooooooooooooooooooooooo depressing..

i sometimes wonder how i even lived these many years without having met you..

i dont wanna go away from you ever and never...

i want to stick on to you stronger than a fevicol or the strongest gum that can exist :)

my bows to my swamy.. my praises to my swamy..... yours always <3
