Human challenge: Harmonizing spiritual and materialistic life
Humans are undergoing intense
challenge that is how to balance spiritual and materialistic life.
Materialism and Spirituality both
are contrast to each other. Materialism identifies physical matter as the only
reality. Consequently, it focuses on
material comfort and headway. Materialism
basically reflects the yearning for material possessions and the continuous
struggle to accomplish them. It is the exploration
for Artha and Kama.
Whereas spirituality is visualized
as the inconsequential reality, the soul, the super-conscious. People who
espoused principles of spirituality are detached worldly possessions and do not
have tempt to achieve material possessions.
It is closely connected with inner self.
It is recognizing the oneness of all creation.
Both Spirituality and Materialism
are devoted part of human nature. They
are both realism. They reveal the intrinsic
duality and contradictions in human nature and in human lives.
Materialism is unavoidable. We as a human cannot overlook senses and
desires. They have to be fulfilled at the right level. Desires are the force
that pushes human to move forward in life. Materialism is required but if we
have excessive desires, it may create problem in life. The spiritual life is
natural and normal.
People must make alignment
between Spirituality and Materialism in order to lead satisfactory life. To
balance these aspects of life, people must involve in chanting, prayer. These
living styles give inner satisfaction to humans.
In ending the dialogue, Spirituality
and Materialism are inherent in human and they have to smartly balance in life
to achieve their supreme goals. These are two effectual approaches to life.
These are equally important in human life to protect from worries, anxieties
and lead to peace, happiness.
