Whenever our sense organs discharge any act, their subtle bodies (senses) convey their experiences to the brain which stores all data collected through sense organs. It is the mind that does the comparison and sets it definition of pleasure!

Man is in hurry, he creates material objects whose life span is very short. He plans, keeping in view narrows perspective. He creates for his comforts or destruction. But nature creates to evolve itself to fuller heights-to ultimate completion and perfection.
Exchange of both, lands (minerals) and people is un-natural! To some extent, it are right. People forced to leave their lands and cultures have not been able to assimilate with their new lands/peoples even after centuries. They always try to find their roots
To preserve energy and to prevent quarrels, embarrassment& spreading of ignorance, talk should be used minimally only to convey what is most essential, not to impress others!
Our eyes are mere organs. They can only see but cannot react. It is the faculty of sight in them that makes them see, so is the sense of sight that observes but is also cannot have pleasure as it lacks qualities of discrimination!
Cosmos are on move along with all their ‘existence’; where it is going, to the nether world? It is moving towards its source. Similarly, evolutionary process of life, is also moving, progressing towards a goal and that goal is its source. Genes tell us to move towards lost goal…
Man is a helpless tool, tossed this or that way by the elements. Incapacitated he is by him imperfect senses and is being mauled in an incomplete molds of nature! Still he survives by the power of adaptability!
Mind discriminates the tastes and decides which dish the most was deliciously prepared. It is the mind that does the comparison and develops its standards. It is the mind that impels sense of smell and taste and induces watering of the tongue!
Man should work in harmony with nature. Whatever nature creates is for its fostering as well as for the benefit of humanity. Material progress by man is necessary but not by destroying himself and natural resources. Otherwise, his progress will lead him to doom one day!
Of the 83, 99,999 species of living beings, only man eats cooked food. Please note, when I use the word ‘man’ it includes woman, of course. Also we eat meat of living beings. It is unnatural to eat cooked food and kill animals and eat them!
In our vocabulary there are no such words as, mind, religion, conscience, intellect, wisdom and soul. Thousands of tons of useless literature have been written about them. All has been waste of time, paper & ink. We are where we were. Have they contributed any improvement in us!
Before we implant seedling we know names of their forms, as mango-apple etc. Before a child is born we know it would be a human being. The categories of life in nature are in sequence of improvisation of evolution. Nothing in nature is happening, perchance or in haphazard way!
Put man in any situation, he will adapt. He not only adapts but transforms himself suitably to new situations. Nature has taught him well. Like nature, he tries to maintain balance. Nature keeps perfect balance in the scheme of her evolution!
Nothing that exists in this world is useless,superfluous. Every object, live or inert has a specific role in scheme of nature. Each sensation/emotion creates an idea, which again is a part of nature. Any act discharged, is an extension of nature. Nature is not different from us!
Elite in real life, their sizes were lesser than those of the ordinary mortals, they were the real midgets. As their sizes were many times, lesser than the images they had projected in the external world. They existed only in their images and inflated personalities.
Faculties of hearing, smell, touch are communicating tools of the mind: Take away mind the bearer is immediately bereft of his friends. A fool though, tastes, smells, hears, touches, sees but he does not enjoy or discriminate their fruits. He does not derive pleasure out of them!
Super stars, celebrities, whose images made soft niches in hearts of their fans: Ordinary folks worshiped them; their sensational exposure, enthralled barren lives of love torn hearts. They were not only masters of their professions but the masters of the hearts of their fans!
To keep up to their images, elites constantly endeavor to devour others, who came their way. Continuous strain imbalance their lives, and invariably they yield under its stress and became drunkard, drug addicts and what not!
As long as we are in the subjugation of mind, we can’t have permanent state of pleasure. But we can have bouts of pleasure if we keep our senses clean, unbiased and untouched. That is possible only if we observe world honestly, not influenced by the mind!
Deserts, snows, forests, vegetation, oceans, are where, they should be. It is man who is disturbing the nature’s chemistry and is suffering because of that. Nature had sufficient resources to sustain life on earth but man has overpopulated and has annihilated forestry.
