MAN-MADE DEATH:

                                       

We are not the owner nor we have invented the basic ingredients (earth,water,air,fire & ether) of material creation, but by overuse & misuse of material creations, we have introduced more pollution, disease & death than God Himself...LOL 😂

Audio: https://www.dropbox.com/s/13uf7r7mtybc8l4/MAN-MADE%20DEATH.m4a?dl=0 

Let’s see some data from Google below.
1. Slaughter house industries: 3 billion animals killed every day. Bird flu, swine flu, mad cow disease, and now COVID-19 which have resulted in deaths of thousands of people all over the world. Have we ever heard about mango flu, strawberry flu, yogurt flu or mad cauliflower disease?.... LOL 😂.  

2. Alcohol industries: Worldwide, 3 million people die from from harmful use of alcohol. The harmful use of alcohol is a causal factor in more than 200 diseases and injury conditions.

3. Oil, gas, chemical & plastic industries: Toxic air, water & soil pollution kills at least 9 million people around the world every year. (Stroke, heart disease, many other diseases, lung and other varieties of cancer due to pollution).

4. Drug industries: Illicit drugs use is responsible for 750,000 death every year.

5. Tobacco industries: Tobacco kills more than 8 million people each year. (7 million of those deaths are the result of direct tobacco use while around 1.2 million are the result of second-hand smoke). 

6. Gambling industries: 15 times higher rate of suicide.

7. Junk food industries: Unhealthily diets are responsible for 11 million preventable deaths globally per year, more even than smoking tobacco. 

8. Weapons industries: 250,000 death per year due to gun violence. Nuclear weapons can kill million people in one shot.

9. Motor vehicle industries: Approximately 1.35 million people die in road crashes each year. An additional 20-50 million suffer non-fatal injuries, often resulting in long-term disabilities.

10. Technological industries: Sedentary lifestyles due to too many comforts, facilities, and luxuries from technological industries are responsible for even more diseases & deaths.

In summary, approximately 3 billion animals & 150,000 people die & many more suffer from these industries every day. If we observe carefully, our hospitals are filled with patients affected from above mentioned industries. If we go back 250 years, how many of these people & other creatures would have died from these industries?, maybe none; there were no above mentioned industries. These industries keep us busy, give us some comfort, excitement and then disease & premature death... 😂. We invented many diseases as a byproduct of these industries & now we are too busy inventing medicines & methods to cure these diseases... LOL 😂. We can save these many lives everyday & also can make this planet pollution free if we LOCKDOWN ourselves at home....LOL 😂 or otherwise we must accept the reality of this rapidly progressing material world. We can’t manufacture the necessities for survival (food, air & water come from the nature) but we can definitely manufacture MAN-MADE DEATH in these industries.

On the contrary, Grains, Vegetables, Fruits, Plants & Cow farming industries support the survival of whole world without harming anyone. Just imagine, with simple & healthy lifestyle as recommended in scriptures, how many lives we can save per year? Spiritual knowledge doesn’t kills but rather facilitate the survival of others. I am not against the industrial revolution, research & science, but remember one thing, at the end of a day, any unnecessary material activities, creativities, inventions and interventions work against us. We are now dependent on these industries; it is almost impossible to unwind it, we can try our best to use it safely & wisely. Even in the presence of an unhealthy environment, we can still maintain our health. Spiritual knowledge & practice helps us to slowly detach from the unhealthy materialistic life to a healthy spiritual life. The first wealth is health. Happiness lies, first of all, in health.

Bg 6.17 — He who is regulated in his habits of eating, sleeping, recreation and work can mitigate all material pains by practicing the yoga system. Vedabase.io

TEXT 7: Bg 14.7: The mode of passion is born of unlimited desires and longings, O son of Kuntī, and because of this the embodied living entity is bound to material fruitive actions. 

TEXT 8: Bg 17.8: Foods dear to those in the mode of goodness increase the duration of life, purify one’s existence and give strength, health, happiness and satisfaction. Such foods are juicy, fatty, wholesome, and pleasing to the heart.

BE HEALTHY AS A HORSE..... LOL 😂.

THANK YOU.

MY SPIRITUAL INSPIRATION , SOURCE & THE GURUS:

I am inspired to hear & read the Vedic Scriptures by regularly listening to Sri Pandurang Shashtri Athvale, also known as Dadaji ( speaks on Srimad Bhagavad Gita, Veda based discourses & western philosophy ) and the association of Swadhyay Parivar every Sunday in Swadhya Kendra. 

I also hear and read the discourses & literature on Vedic thoughts from Srila Prabhupada, his disciples & grand disciples ( HH Bhakti Rasamitra Swami, HH Chaitanya Charandas Prabhu, Shubha Vilas Prabhu, Vraja Vihari Dasa, Sutapa Das, Amarnath Dasa, HH Bhakticharu Swami, HH Urmila Devi Dasi, HH Sivarama Swami, HH Radhanath Swami, HH Romapada Swami, Lal Govind Prabhu (Gujarati & Hindi), Prahalad Maharaj in Surat (Gujarati) .......and many more from ISKCON......). 

FYI: A good source of Vedic literature: Vedabase.com Srimad Bhagavad Gita is the essence & Srimad Bhagavatam (SB) is the nectar of all Vedic scriptures. Repeatedly hearing/reading & meditating the Scriptures, Eating Sanctified Pure Food and Chanting or Hearing the Vedic Mantras are nourishing to our heart (Soul), transcendental to our consciousness, purifying to our senses and thus helps us to overcome our weaknesses or deficiencies. Yes, we do have good qualities within us but there is always a room for improvement. 

It is always a good idea to share our good thoughts & knowledge with others. Thanks to the Facebook & Social media for providing me the platform. Of course I use Smartphone & Google search to collect some data. 

Besides my parents, wife, teachers, family & friends GREATFUL to EVERYONE WHO HAVE CONTRIBUTED in MY LIFE. Hopefully my enthusiasm will continue by Grace of the Guru & God (Krishna , Absolute Truth).

NOTE:
Many times a word Hearing is used instead of Listening when it comes to the Scriptures. Because Scriptures are so potent that simply by Hearing them even if you don’t try to interpret or analyze or understand them still there will be passive positive effects on our mind & senses.

We can follow either the Quran, Bible,Torah, Tripitaka-Buddhism, Agama-Jainism, Guru Granth Sahib-Sikhism, Gita or any other Philosophy which makes sense to us, purifies us, elevates our consciousness and qualifies us to understand God and instill the love of God & his creation. (whichever way we can understand God — either Personal with many names or Impersonal as an universal consciousness & energy).

Don’t try to understand God by Name, Religion or Depiction (means image, picture...etc) but try to understand him by the Definition through Scriptures. The Transcendental subject of God & his creation cannot be understood by mental speculation. Some times people ask why God is Supreme? It is just like asking why is the circle circular? Just by definition, the circle is circular. Similarly by definition, God is unborn, complete, unlimited, infinite, eternal, the Absolute Truth the source of everything, cause of all causes. 

I see God, besides the above mentioned qualities, as an eternal living person (not a abstract or some kind of light) known by the name KRISHNA meaning one who attracts everyone has also MANY other NAMES, forms, abodes, incarnations, activities, qualities, associates, is full of wisdom, bliss, and the cause of all causes.

Bg 9.17 — I am the father of this universe, the mother, the support and the grandsire. I am the object of knowledge, the purifier and the syllable oṁ. I am also the Ṛg, the Sāma and the Yajur Vedas.

TEXT 18: Gita 9.18: I am the goal, the sustainer, the master, the witness, the abode, the refuge and the most dear friend. I am the creation and the annihilation, the basis of everything, the resting place and the eternal seed.

Bg:13-12:— Accepting the importance of self-realization; and philosophical search for the Absolute Truth ( God ) – all these I declare to be knowledge, and besides this whatever there may be is ignorance. ( Vedabase.com ).
