The life of man is not for enjoyment. The superior life is not for this inferior purpose. The ordinary man lives with limitations but with complete access to the pleasures of life. However, this human body, this mind, this heart and soul which we have are not meant to be wasted in the fulfilment of pleasures. This is where the whole problem has cropped up.
The human body is a superior creation of God and this human incarnation has been ordained for us to fulfil the purpose of spiritual experience. No being other than the human being can have access to spiritual experience. Only we can have the experience of God, of atman, of the Supreme. God created this superior frame for the fulfilment of the spiritual purpose. But when we squander away the qualities of this superior birth in lower enjoyments, we bring pain, frustration, heart disease and mental breakdowns upon ourselves.
All the problems man is facing today are caused by the misuse of his incarnation. That is the only reason. We have been misusing this valuable human body. Not all of us need to become swamis, but definitely we must become devotees, bhaktas, and day by day increase our spiritual awareness, so that some day we may not be disappointed like some swamis who come to Munger for samadhi and end up with shankhaprakshalana.
