How are we to determine that God-realization is the goal of our life? Since wealth is also worthy of being obtained, honors and status are also worth obtaining, comforts and convenience are also obtainable, so many things are thus to be achieved, the question arises as to how to be sure that God-realization is the goal of our life? Is there anybody among you who wants to be happy, such a happiness which is not perfect or complete, which is in-complete and transitory? Does anybody want such a life which should not always be like that, we should be living sometime and not live at any other time? Who wants such a life? Does anybody wish for such a knowledge which is incomplete? We want such a life which should always be beautiful. We want such knowledge which is supreme and perfect without the least faint of incompleteness therein. Such a longing is in fact, the longing for the supreme truth of life, God, save God there is nothing which is eternal, perfect and absolute. We hush up the desire to seek Truth by petty worldly desires and become happy or unhappy at times at intervals. Even a dog is pleased by happiness in small measures. A donkey too gets pleased by that way. That happiness should be achieved which is in no way in complete, which is perfect in itself. The world cannot provide such happiness which has no deficiency or short coming. Thus worldly pleasure or happiness is not our goal, it is not our destiny.
