Opening money:
According to anthropological studies, the first discovery that changed human life and directed it towards a better civilization was a firefighter. Then the wheel opened. The fire changed its power system, and the wheel improved its transportation. Then a man discovered hundreds and hundreds of cars to improve his lifestyle. He learned to fly like a bird, inventing airplanes, swim like a fish, inventing boats, ships and submarines. He invented radio, television and, above all, computers, the modern wonder of the era. But his discovery of money, rather, the monetary system is the greatest evil for society, because all human society is corrupt by the greed of money.
How did the whole system start?
Man is a selfish animal. He wants to keep everything that comes his way. The land on which he lives is his, he alone has the right to use water, plants, animals, etc. Thus, the ownership process began from the early stages of evolution itself. If others wanted a legal share on his wishes, they had to part with some of their things in return.
As civilization developed, man began to live in societies. Each society had its own leader. Then the leaders became kings with powerful powers over the area under their control. People had to pay a certain fee for everything that they used, such as water, food grains, etc. The initial operations were carried out only by exchanging articles known as Barter. Over time, the exchange of barter was tedious and cumbersome, and, therefore, was introduced for the exchange of articles. These tokens were modified as leather stripes with a queen seal that is universally recognized within the kingdom. Gradually, leather strips were transformed into metal coins with a king & nbsp; or "rupa", which means a replica of the face. This is the source of the words Muhar or Rupees for the definition of money. Nowadays, paper currency has replaced all other coins, and each country has its own currency. Gold, the only equivalent of money, is kept as a reserve by various countries. In countries like India, gold is still powerful and valuable than cash. But its value is so high that nothing can replace value, paper currency takes up everyday life.
This is the story of money, money or paper currency.
The impact of money on the human race:
From the foregoing, it will be clear that selfishness is the motivating force behind money. On the one hand, the development of civilization and the enormous development of science and technology, and on the other, egoism and greed for money cross all borders, and today money is all for man. Before, money was the medium between various business operations. But now the situation has changed, which is the main concern for any human actions.
Quoting Indian conditions, since the birth of a child, medical facilities are available only to the rich. Healthy foods are also available for them. As for school and college, they are transformed as a pure business. Getting a job, a bride, and so on. D. All this is connected with monetary considerations. When a person becomes ill, unless he is rich, he will not receive the necessary medical procedures. Even after death, his burial or cremation requires a huge bribe. There is a proverb in Tamil saying that a living person, if he has no money, is equivalent to a dead body. But even a dead corpse requires money for a funeral. Another adage is that if you offer to pay currency, even a corpse wakes up and sits down. “Even parents do not receive answers to form their children from abandoned parents, which is also associated with financial benefits. The treatment changes a person to a person depending on the amount paid by the beneficiaries who allow them.
There may be a funny situation. In India, there is a very large pilgrimage center for Hindus, almost like VATICAN for Christians. People offer their hair with a full head shave, known as Mundan or Mottai. If a good amount is paid, there will be a nice and smooth shave. There are so many poor pilgrims who cannot afford to pay. The government ordered a free shave for everyone, but those who cannot afford to pay can only have a partial shave, with some hair and head wounds caused by rough handling of razors. If a person can pay thousands of rupees, he can have a quick darshan of the Lord, if he cannot offer money, he will be very rudely treated and he must wait several hours to look at the Lord. The influence of money is even included in the Sanctum Sanctorum.
Now we will see how real values are lost for considerations related to money:
There is no real affection and affection for family members of the family. Children do not care about their children when they reach old age. Sometimes parents and brothers and sisters are killed for profit.
It seems that Love also lost its real value. The girl prefers a rich man who can not afford to spend. This aspect also gave way to acid throws and killings.
Getting a good job depends on the money spent as a bribe. For any work that needs to be completed, you have to part with money as a bribe. The author does not know about other countries. In India, corruption is rampant. Sadly, India, the religious capital and largest democracy in the world, is a bad example of corruption and bribery.
Education is expensive. Even for taking LKG, people should spend on lakhs. For medical receivers have to part with at least 5 million. A postgraduate medical student is trying to pay a lot, and people have to sell their property to pay their bills, provided they return from hospitals.
Candidates in the elections spend a lot of money. After the election, the winners resort to all types of methods of collecting money. Even awards and other recognitions for real talents are bought at the expense of money.
Thus, it can be seen that the evil influence of money has spread in all areas that corrupt all human value. Now we are at a critical stage to stop the further spread of evil influence and regain lost values. In fact, India, which has four Vedas and Bhagavad Gita in the world, should begin this exercise.
How to stop the influence of money and return values?
From the above paragraphs it is clear that selfishness and the craze for property is the main reason for money, which occupies a fundamental position in human life. Money, instead of being a carrier or reference object, occupied the main position, pushing all the values behind. One is reminded of a monkey who is sure to divide the sweet cake between two cats and finally eat the whole cake. Now money has been eaten or corrupted by all human minds.
The primary need to reduce the impact of money is to reduce selfishness. Ownership must be completely revoked. Claiming that everything meets, as my own must be stopped. This can be done by reducing desires. Yes! Buddha said that one cannot completely destroy desire. But you can reduce the desire.
Reduce desires. Practice sacrifice to precious things. Try empathizing. Help others by reducing your own comfort. Try to live a simple life.
These five steps automatically control the effect of money.
The role of governments: we do not need to expect cost control from the government. Instead, we must choose a government that will act as a benchmark for simple spending. Moreover, in such a democratic country as India, people should not get involved in pomp and show, but choose simple leaders who demonstrate austerity in everyday life.
It happens? Unfortunately, the answer is simple. People are transported by empty promises and elect leaders who empty the treasury for personal use.
Today, we need leaders like Mahatma Gandhi, who has toured around the world and had the courage to meet the British queen with her loins on her lap. You do not need to be a copy of Gandhi, but you can follow at least some of the principles that he observed in his life. The life and teachings of Mahatma Gandhi is the best emulation of a strict and simple life.
Let me complete the article with the sayings of a not very famous South Indian saint who preaches a middle approach in all aspects of life to his students:
Be kind, but do not be a slave.
Show pity, but do not be fooled.
Sacrifice liberally, but don’t lose everything and become a beggar
be economical, but do not skimp.
Be active, but do not rush.
Be patient, but don't be a fool.
Be chivalrous, but do not be outcasts.
To be a family man, but not to be sex hungry.
Have a troop, but do not become holy.
Love good people, but don't hate evil people.
The above statements, applied mutatis mutandis to monetary considerations, will solve most of the evil of the world and return human values that are lost.
