Secret of Success.

You might be wondering why some people do amazing things and come up with wonderful ideas while others try hard to achieve success, through tools like education, connections, hard labor, etc.
The secret of success is “Detachment”. If you perform any task without getting attached to it, you will be successful.

Think of life like a journey, and the path with many shops on its way. The more you network with these shops, the longer it takes you to finish the journey. (Networking here means engaging ones mind and body into sensual sensations). Your only chance to success (in this life) is to make a shop on the most frequently used path.

You can be least successful in life if you sell items that has a market for more then 100 years (by selling everyday use items like food stuff, health care, etc.)

You can be a little successful in life if you sell consumer goods, which have a market life, no more than 5 years. (Like electronics, software, vehicles etc)

You can be most successful by actually selling (or involve in selling) addictive substances like cigarettes, drugs, alcohol, firearms etc. (stuff that leaves the customer happy for a while but leaves him coming for more)

The least rewarding, financially, is obviously the most rewarding spiritually, coz if you sell stuff that will last for 100 years as opposed to the one who sells stuff that has a lower durability, you are doing a favor to the one who visits your shop to move on; however, I believe that the tables are turning; more people are towards world peace and even more are into healthy, organic living then ever before so basically, someone who sells stuff that’ll last for 100 years will also be rich.

Or you could choose to be a guiding light to whoever strays upon these shops and tell them to move on with the journey. Saints do this; they use compassion, they have nothing to gain (in this life) by guiding you away from these shops but just because they have compassion, they get you out and guide you to the finishing. (Although a true saint is hard to find during these time).
Then there are those who choose to use force, like the terrorists, to remove you from the shops, they believe that since the word of the Lord has already been in existence through ancient times; the one who doesn’t recognize the true path and enters a shop, is a sinner, and that sinners should be eradicated.

Although I wrote a previous blog on “Stronger than Steel” where I described human nature to be an entity very hard to change, I believe that all souls can be directed to God with Compassion.

I’d like to end this blog by a verse from the Bhagvad Gita:

Ch 3 Text 42
“The working senses are superior to dull matter; mind is higher then the senses; intelligence is still higher than the mind; and the soul is even higher than the intelligence.”

The senses are different outlets for the activities of lust. Lust is reserved within the body, but it is given vent through the senses. These senses are like serpents which poison your mind and ultimately your soul into so called different bliss levels that ultimately, are infinite in variety but never to completion; and thus you tie your self ever so more, to many births, every time you make a desire.
