SUICIDE

What a novel way of escape from the experiences of life. And really what a unique method of taking revenge on the fellow human being.

Death is considered a passage of the soul from one body to another which is also not a permanent one. When we were created along with all other human beings of this Universe, were we given any assurance by the creator that others will be there to please us always? In frustration individuals should get more determined to succed to survive, which is the main purpose of frustration. There are no circumstances, no situations or no surroundings upon this Universe where there are no frustrations, due to unsuccessfulness in the different schemes of life. Who could give anybody any assurance of success in everything everytime and how? What assurance do we get and from where that we would get a better deal than the present one after committing suicide? Most of the suicides are the result of frustrations in relationship failures with our fellow human beings.

Possessive or extreme possessive aspect in any human being is the real factor for the particular individual in having any failed relationship with the fellow human being. Humankind has forgotten to have a relationship with Nature which could be a good alternative and an eternal one without the play of dice of give and take, incase any failure in with the fellow human beings.

Mankind with all it’s soffisticated ways of learning has learned many things except the purpose of the life and death upon this Universe.

Nature, Mother Nature is always ready to make humanity’s existence more meaningful if only the great humanity wishes so.

Let us be aware of other presences around us than fellow human beings, especially the tiny plants with tiny flowers and fruits called WEEDS.

Let us learn from them, how to live the little moments of life with perfect joy devoid of ego. They only can teach us a life without suicide, because they never commit any.

Suicide does not mean only causing death to oneself by hanging, burning, shooting, cutting or by any other means but by living an artificial life full of lies. So therefore, there is nothing like any personal loss or death or suffering. Our existence upon this Universe not a mere technicality but a truth manifestation.
