More Ignorant, Blissful nonetheless
A very interesting comment to my previous article on 'Bliss'. Are we as humans, really capable of improving, considering that we 'have' an 'advantage' over animals and vegetation which have to evolve, on the contrary?
From the perspective of this question, one has to really go into the depths of religion for an answer (Totally a personal opinion). The Bhagwat Gita instructs that the ability of Man, as such to see the 'Big picture' is very limited. We get easily carried away by the 'petty' and simple aspects of life: Financial success (??), Achievements (!!!! 1st in a class of 10 students??). When we derive our 'strength' from such petty issues, we fail to go beyond to realize the higher echelons. Until this happens, my opinion is that we are as much animals and vegetation as animals and vegetation really are (Worse!!?? - personal experiences).
To continue, aspects such as 'Dollar' value and 'European' settlement seem to be the basis categories to establishing (& maintaining) communication with one another!
Conclusion(in my opinion): I am still Ignorant but Blissful nonetheless!!!

Naice One - It got me thinking along totally different lines!
I guess the ability of humans to define something called the 'Big Picture' itself, is proof of that! What represents the 'higher echelon' to me may be something that someone else would define as simple and petty! There is always a constant need for humans to evolve - and unlike in the case of most animals and vegetation, it isn't merely for survival. Thatz where the difference creeps in - and drags in the 'advantage' I guess..
Omg! That is such a random comment..hehe..But I agree - 'Blissful nonetheless' :-)
