Passion is incomplete without compassion


We all have heard as to how important it is to follow our heart, passion and how that leads to success and happiness.. It is true, it cannot be denied but have we even bothered beyond our success????
Today, success has become a synonym for happiness but how many of us have reflected within to really understand if this is really true ....
We need to be passionate about work or hobby or anything that can bring us pleasure to derive the best form of pleasure but at the end of the day it is ONLY SURROUNDING SELF... it is all about SELF PLEASURE.... It is only self contained..
And anything that is self contained has a never ending longing and greed... To the extent, it becomes SELFISH in nature... Thus, passion in its pure form is SELFISH.
Compassion on the other hand helps us in empathizing with the other, compassion helps in balancing the pleasure we seek.
If compassion is accompanied by passion, we are constantly aware of not putting others in any inconvenience for our passion(happiness)... Compassion on the contrary can indirectly help us in assisting others too towards their pleasure.... Be it growth or be it happiness it is not fulfilling in spiritual term if it doesn't happen with others....
For instance, if I quote an example... Diwali (festival of lights) which just went by.. Assume, only we are privileged to illuminate our houses where our surrounding is not in a state to decorate and illuminate their homes.. How happy or contended will we feel in such a scenario??? Most of us wouldn't feel truly happy as how much ever we fool ourselves that we are only self contained, the SPIRIT within us is always looking at us doing something profound, as that is the real happiness we all seek.
Thus, it is fabulous to follow passion and being passionate about something but if we lose out on compassion, we are only fooling ourselves with the pseudo happiness we derive.
Choice is ours..
It's not very difficult to inculcate compassion in our lives to get that magical feel of divinity..

DON'T DIE WITH YOUR DEAD...

Did you know that when you cry for your dead, you cry for you and not them? You cry because you “lost them”, because you don’t HAVE THEM by your side. You think it all ends in death. And you think they are NOT there anymore. So if you’re dead no more, where are they? Yes they have left, or they are now somewhere else, is that place better than this? Yes, definitely that place is better than this; so Why do you suffer for their departure? When you have finished accepting that they are no longer "NOT here", but they are still in another place even better than this, for they’re where they are no longer sick, or suffering. Then you'll stop mourning them and you'll get them back in memory so they keep accompanying you with the joy of all that you've lived. If you truly loved them LOVE them AGAIN and this time with greater strength, with greater purity, with greater delivery. Today, there will be no more reproach of any kind. Only LOVE, will be the essence b...

India needn’t follow ‘broken’ US healthcare model

India is at a good vantage point and needs to create its own path.  We need not follow the path that has led the United States to become a billion-dollar market for Big Pharma’s dream run. February 13, 2023   North America is Big Pharma’s wet dream, with 45% of the global market share coming from just 4% of the total world population. Mayo Clinic found 70% of Americans are prescribed at least one medication including, antibiotics, anti-depressants, and painkillers. What better than to model the whole world, after this dream run?  OVER-DIAGNOSED AND OVER-MEDICATED  In 1976, Henry Gadsden, CEO of Merck &Co., told Fortune magazine, he wanted Merck “to be like chewing gum maker Wrigleys”. He said: “It has long been my dream to make drugs for healthy people because then Merck would be able to ‘sell to everyone’.” This interview was reproduced by Moynihan Cassels in his book,  Selling Sickness. This strategy works to make everyone–a patient–and sell perpetual, chr...
