Truth and illusion

What appears to us is not always the truth and we are way apart from the true world in which we actually are. We engage ourselves in so many things, that we forget for what we actually are in this world. These things includes the social and emotional behaviors. These behaviors are so intensified , that we keep on making hallucination of various things to be actually taking place, which actually are not taking place. Let me make this point clear by taking example, a father working hard fulfilling all the needs and requirements of his child, assuming his son to be a fine human being and a successful person , and also most important , his son would support him when his old bones will get stiffed. He goes on making hallucinations that whatever he is thinking and working for, will definitely come true. Under these kind of illusions person usually forgets everything and is never ready to accept anything else, even the truth.

We have so many things in our life, or I will say there are so many barriers in between us and the truth. And these barriers do not let us move out of the vicious circle of illusions in which we are caught. Getting caught in these illusions is very easy, just leave you conscience and practical nature for sometime and you are caught. But coming out of it is one of the toughest things to do.

We often think that money makes our life very easy and money can buy everything and just keep on running after it for whole life time, and at the end we find that we lost a lot than gaining this money which is not going to accompany after one dies rather creates disputes among the relatives and successors.

These illusions are adopted as a part of marketing life too. Those who have too sell something brainwashes the other person with his tactful ways and creates an illusion that life without his product is very difficult. Hence these illusions if used tactfully can be of great use.

This illusion is such an indispensable part of life, that it makes very difficult for a person facing it to differentiate it with reality. And one goes on wasting his life on worthless things, rather than doing something constructive. One should just try to use his conscience in best possible way, and try to remain as close to the truth as much as he can, this is the only thing which can be done.

I am not saying that one should leave all the relations and leave all the responsibilities, I just want to say that truth is not what can be seen very easily and so is the life given to us by God. Don’t just waste your life on unnecessary things in life which are not going to get count at our end, rather try to do such constructive things by which one can get maximum satisfaction. Living in just a truthful manner is not possible of anyone, one got to make compromises with this truth. Thus its very illogical to think that we can live with complete truth and reality, so we should try to be maximum as possibly as close to truth and live life by applying our brains in best possible way. Because at the end nothing else but the things that we have achieved makes count and makes our live valuable.

  1. Hi Rahul,
    yes i agree with your views, we should try our best to be close to truth as much but side by we should not forget the reality and logic and pratical point behind the situation. we should fullfill all aspect of life, not only towards others but their is also a gr8 responsiblity toward ourself also.
