Are Newage Comforts worth it...

The life we lead today is full of comforts and facilities to make life a piece of cake....So it is in the big cities of the world.....

We have an alarm to help us maintain a routine of remembering to do things on time.....most common, is to give a heady start to the day
We have geysers heat water at a switch click...
We have Television to provide the necessary entertainment at home
We have a refrigerator to keep food items cool / dry...We have fans and coolers to keep home cool....We have ice and cold drinks to keep ourselves cool....
The list is endless and with passing time we are just adding to the list....

At most level this is a good progress we have made...but are we humans really evolving as a better Human nowdays ????
We have become dependant on our facilities....we have retreated into our comfort cocoons...we have stopped make extra effort to b one with our nature....

A scary thought, but if u read all these fictions...it’s an inevitable fact -
The world will be made of machines and not of trees and soil.....
We will be living out of oxygen masks and there will be not fresh air
We would be given tasteless food out of machines...no more will fruits grow out of trees....

Are we going in the right directions....are we doing justice to the nature which has facilitated our evolution from a monkey to a human.....are we doing justice to ourselves by making the machine smarter than us...... ?????????

The question which has no right or wrong answer.......
But the important part is...do we have the realization within us......

True, my friend.
We all are yearning for sucess without giving a thought where we are moving.
Part of this thought process is due to the cut throat competetion we face these days and do not have time for our daily "dincharaya" which our predecessors used to do.

No one will do a surya namaskar or a sandhya today because they are busy in office and work or sleeping during that time.
