A country/person with incorrect priorities never give any fruits to it's civilization. Statistical outcomes may give economic dominance over it's previous years and also over it's neighboring countries. Perhaps this dominance is a temporary phenomenon and a real myth. The longevity always exists in self-realization. Our main problem in today's world for majority of countries and majority of people is living a life without having this self-realization. We need many material and immaterial things in life beyond our basic and self-esteem needs. This unwanted extra stuff creating all sorts of nonsense to us and diverting our priorities to unhygienic and naturally-unlawful though these are constitutionally lawful in many geographical parts.
This world has seen many historical events which have created all sorts of brutal destruction. For me all these could be traced their origins into the failure of self-realization. Yes, Alexander realized on his death bed that he failed to understand the meaning of life and wasted his life in wars and became a cause of so much civil unrest around the globe. The story of Mongol warrior Genghis Khan moves in the same way created blood bath in the then societies. And Hitler, we all know what this world has paid for his activities. All sorts of evils took place on this earth only due to failure of self-realization. Throughout the history we have crossed many stages from nomadic life style to permanent settlements and from monarchy rule to democratic rule. Only change I can see in todays so called democratic society from other previous societies is the change in the form of slavery. Earlier people had to struggle for food in some periods and had to live in slavery under different reigns. Now we are same slaves of our life. We became slaves to technological innovations without realizing what we are getting at the cost of what we are losing. The whole world is being driven by currency and material relations. We want money and money and more money to build future of our family/country. But non of us realizing ourselves money is not the replacement to what we are actually missing. A country wants to dominate the other by showing economic statistics and military spending. A family wants to show their power showing their assets and income and by luxury unwanted spending. So, in both cases we try to feel happy ourselves by exposing something we have that others don't have. If others too had what you have then certainly that won't become a source of satisfaction. We always need something special day after day till the death leaving no meaning behind. For our selfish wants we are destroying our nature more than ever before making it a hell to future generations.
Self realization is that which enlighten us to lead peaceful life with whatever we have hurting none. After all the activities we are certainly leave this world. So, everyone should keep this in mind, most importantly when they are young. Self-realization is the motivating force that drives our activities to help others and to live with nature in harmony. It unites our soul with eternal joy by joining in every good aspect of society. It is our responsibility to give the best to our future generations. I always like to dream a group of small kids playing in green pastures breathing pure air drinking clean river water. These kids are very very rich than the kids playing in costly video games.
