Comparison : The theft of happiness

We compare, because we haven’ t understood the quality of the self. We compare because we under estimated ourselves that something void is there within. We make beliefs that someone is better and more deserving than the self. When we dont work on ourselves and dont admire own qualities, we feel inferior. Introvertness can’t be achieved if being looking outside.

Difference or uniqueness?

When we have this special experience that each one has his own ability. When everyone does work according to their own ability and experiences and that is everyone’s own effort, then we will not compare. It is said that whoever does it will be able to get. This is the field of action, here in the land of action man is identified by actions. The deeds that you do will be proved. Now looking at every human being, what to see is a matter to understand. Whatever differences are seen, it shows unity in mutual diversity. We are all alike, but difference is a sign of uniqueness.  

Why comparison? How subtle is the sanskar?

We compare that means we lose faith in ourselves. And the people in front want to understand each and every one and wish not to try too much on their own. If we talk in subtle, then it will be known that the root of this sanskar is greed. There is a desire that is not over yet. So there is a sense of comparison that they have more and themselves have less, or they have good and themselves are not that good. Greed is a disorder. When we knew the root of any disorder, it would be easy to overcome it. When it is known that the comparison is after all and why, then the result is that the comparison has to be made between good and evil. And not from each other. We may have a lot of potential, but when we compare, we can get only a little more than others. But we may have the ability to do much more and better than that. Therefore, a person of understanding or a sensible person is the one who works on his own shortcomings. and finds ways to remove them.

Example:

In ecology, there is a following link of the population interaction- 

Species interactions within ecological webs include four main types of  interactions:

• mutualism,
• commensalism,
• competition, and
• predation.

Now assess it yourself with knowledge and intellect, then you will know what we want in our life and where we come.

• Mutualism: – both sides benefit each other ♥
• Commensalism: one benefits, other is unaffected ♣
• Competition: both sides negatively affected ⊗
• Predation/ parasitism: one side benefits other side negatively affected ∅

 

Comparing or sharing?

Now when we understand the culture of comparison which has arisen out of greed, then the second step would be that we have to do the transaction of superiority, not comparing with each other. We may win over each other by comparison, but the conclusion is that one side might be unhappy and the other is happy. And when we exchange good thoughts, good thoughts with each other, then there is happiness and peace on both sides.

To conclude:

So in the end we should check that what is the end result of any action? When both sides are ready and the vibrations of happiness and contentment come, then actions are the best.
