A Man and His Wealth, the Root of Errors
--- Haidar Ali Khan

A man is the most complicated creation of God physically and mentally. He is impossible easily to be comprehended. He is regarded the representative of God on the Earth as mentioned in the religious and historical analysis. He is thought the best faculty of God on the Earth. Many a period he had been always chosen to change the rules of Nature. He did all that, for what he was destined. After all, he always thought of two vice things; 'Power in hand, and Wealth in planned.'
Before coming to the point, It is very compulsory to know about a man, from where has he come ? What does he do ? How does he live on the Earth ? How does he behave with his own society, and the other creatures as well ? There are some knowledges, which should be intentionally known to everyone of us, as we have been told us about a man and his superiority. There may be both of the reactions; either authorisation, or remark for rejecting the thoughts.
The Almighty has created more powerful, more beautiful, faster, having more patience, even more qualitative creations than a man in the universe. They never complain for anything. They live without uttering any single word to Him. They have the same society in all as a man has. They do all activities as the man does; They sleep, get up, bath, eat and drink, and so on.They did not develop in any of the aspects, but a man did. They are still today as they were in the time of the world creation. It is not a question of one creation, but millions of creations, except a man. None of the creations expelled from one another, for they are not created for many reasons, but for one reason. It was only man who made it possible, or it may be said that Only he was blessed from the Almighty for doing so. In the history, it is mentioned that he was positioned sometime after The Almighty or Equal to Him. Even after out of millions, only man is the creation who is ever found restless, desirous, and worried for something. It is very strange to be thought and agreed.
How can it be possible for a man who is regarded the inventor, discoverer, developer, maker and more of the qualities. What did he not do for the world ? He invented the fire, vehicles, bullet, mobile etc; he discovered and navigated the new countries to the other countries to spread his business on international level; he developed his all aspects of life, that made him all round flourished creation on the earth; he made the rules and principles through which he paved the way for cultures and religions; He conquered not only on the lands, but on the seas also, along with it, all that, whichever became as hindrances in his way. Even after he is always wanting of something every time. Why is it so ???

With the passage of time, He tried his level best and got everything done. As he has well mannered experiences, inherited from his ancestors. Today He has all the sources through which he can fulfill his desires as well the needs. After having a glance on the whole world, It never feels that a man can not live with dignity and independent; he can never be worried for anything if he has been flourished and prosperous enough, and blessed with such unique things; he, together with his coming generations, may live successfully and happily. Yet why does he wander about here and there like a naive.
Who can think about a man that he is superior to others, and may live a life of unknown to everything ? There can be seen a situation of an imbalance lifestyle, misuse of the rights and freedom, persecution and exploitation, and despotic domination amongst his all society. What is this all happening before him. In this situation, being the most representative of success and development of the world, a man has been leading a miserable and merciful life.
It is not over yet. He, according to people, behaves wildly or like an animal. In the study, either it is in his heredity and gene, or he knowingly reacts. To this fact, there are many theories to be gone through. Aristotle, the legendary Greek philosopher said, “Man is by nature a social animal; an individual who is unsocial naturally and not accidentally is either beneath our notice or more than human. Society is something that precedes the individual.”
For a moment, if it is so about a man as with the above comment on a man is right. Does it not look that Aristotle, having touched in deep, tried to remind a man in really his status that man is a social animal and comes from the wild land. He, in further, categorised his revolutionary fields, as he was expelled from the animals, and began to live as new creation with founding his own society. By and by It happened that he made himself unsocial from animals and Individual among them all. But The time has gone. The period after period has passed. The highest honours are rewarded to him on being an Outstanding and Individual creation on the Earth. He has made all the animals servants to him. It is not so that he was an animal, but a creation, Still he behaves as an animal or worse than that.
For his heredity and gene, it was researched scientifically in the ages that Primitive life is the background of this modern man. It is the period when a man lived with wild animals. The people of that period were not likewise today's. They were savages, uncivilised, cruel to one another, disinterested in relation, hunters for animals etc. In that period, a man was never in exception. After a long period, as the destiny falls, so he developed. It went on and on with happenings, and today's man became civilized, literate, and conscious. Here the facts sound of his ancestors belonged to the primitive period, due to his wild actions.

With all the above facts and fictions, the same question arises, " Why has a man been restless, desirous and worried for something ? There are hundreds and thousands of argumentative facts which gave to some perspectives things, that are either cursed for a man or bliss; ambitions for power; fame or prominence. A man has been sick of such leads as shows him the puppet of God controlled by Him. He does it all, to be very frank, for the most dominating and reigning, the Wealth.
Since the world is created, all the dominations were like wild goose chase for him, but by the time, they became works and roles finished in no time. It was only the wealth which stayed with him, never to be lost till the day of judgement. It was the wealth - it made him conquerer of the lands and empires, like the Mongols; it made him the notorious in the society; it made him the so-called political leader, like in Asian countries; it made him lost in the darkness, like Satan; it made him wild to his relatives and neighbours, as media reports the cases daily; it made him egoist; it made him poorer than poor, and richer than rich; it made banished his ideal status in the world.
'Wealth is itself a vice, so it makes a man vice'. The experience emphasises, "A man had better seek refuge in God as wealth invokes the Satan in greed'. It does not have desires to console a man in need, but ambitions to surpass the needs of life, for those he sometime becomes animal in vain. When he does not get his ambitions, he is infuriated and behaves wildly with no reason. It happens all because of the wealth.
There are a number of movies, stories, religious beliefs, sayings and tales of revolting the wealth at any way. To be awared, there are some everlasting sayings and thoughts; 'Money is the root of all evils', 'No vice like avarice', and 'The greedy is never satisfied'. These are such consequences of wealth that are never taken in argument or debate, whether you have or you have not. It is the main reason to call it vice. Only the Satan is satisfied with it. A man can never be regarded as satisfied with it by any means. Why is it so that Satan is satisfied with it, because Satan is free from all restrictions, whereas a man is dependent on one another, even on God ? It happens sometime that a man becomes satan in greed of wealth, and lost his consciousness to do anything; legal or illegal; forbidden or permissible.
Today's man is completely living a life of errors and evils just for wealth. Everywhere, a man has been suffered from inevitable problems. Wish for there would not be wealth, and money in the world !

There are not all but some who commit errors and sins. It is not regarding to one field or society; In the field of services and jobs, We can see many of the services and promotions are based on money and wealth. What to say about Excellency there ? Excellency is of no value in already set departments. Offices and officials are never made up of ideals, principles and laws, but of wealth and money. It is mastered by the names- bribe, corruption, black money, and so on. It is a laughing stock when there is any advertisement for requirements and vacancies in the newspaper or on social sites. It may be found in government sector as well as in private jobs. They are given facilities, like income, insurance, luxury, to some people, free food, and living etc. Having full of desires, they are restless day and night. What do they need in reality that may cure them from restlessness ? The wealth ?!?!
What is the status of girls or women in this 21st century. They are nothing but the stuff to be used, oppressioned, persecuted and victimized. Before this century, She was used by the rich and aristocratic people directly, but now she has been formalised by indirectly. People think that woman is safe and empowered by doing jobs and works outside homes when man is free from responsibilities of her and all. Actually they are blind to wealth and addiction. It is not called the freedom of women, but a cloudy compulsion that is forced by society and men. What to speak of a woman ? She is born with five blessings to men. She is thought to be like in form of God. As The most suffered from compulsions, Gandhi is the second name given to a woman who bears the tortures of the society. How ? It is only she who knows where her shoes pinch. Once a man be blessing to woman, only than She can be safe and empowered. It is impossible in such a greedy and injustice century. Contrary to this fact, It imparts the new generations equally how to earn and be superior, and forget the cultures and true teachings of religions.
Think of the girls, are over aged and not married yet. Think of the girls, work in offices and companies, and are exploited for money and promotions. If they go against it, they are raped. It is not a series matter that she was raped by some boys and men. The real matter is that the medias, the politics, and some people find a chance how to get wealth in planned through this case. Think of the girls, are tortured for dowry by the society indirectly before marriage, and by laws house directly after marriage. They should shame on them calling themselves humans. Is the wealth dire need in their life, for that they commit any error or sin.

It is not the fault of humans, but his ambitions for wealth. Sometime it looks that he, may be, needs a proper education to be virtuous so that he may become conscious wordly as well as spiritually. But It is only for observing the thoughts more and more which is also possible without paying any fee or a part of wealth. If it comes to be practically, a man has to bow down before wealth at any cost.
It is said that Knowledge is Power. A man is regarded superior to all creations, due to his wisdom and knowledge which make him witty and wise, but it is not in reliance in some places and people. As Alexander Pope, the Augustan age satirist, criticises a man and says, "A man boasts of his knowledge, but in reality he is a bundle of contradictions and weakness." From An Essay on Man, he further says,
"Know then thyself, presume not God to scan;
The proper study of mankind is man."
Here the poet wants the readers to know that Whatever is right, is right. A man can not deny this doctrine, and escape from the reality which is before him. He worship God, prays to Him, offers the obediences, and chants hymn to Him, as his olders used to do . What benefits did come from that ? Only as repose as sleep at night. He again returns to the same mood or business, as was restless all day. What is the problem with him having wisdom and knowledge ? Nothing but love for wealth to gain through any way.
There was a movie named Shivaji the Boss, of which Main Hero, Rajnikanth, the Superstar, speaks of the country, India that here poor gets poorer while rich gets richer. The common people consider it the Fortune that favours the rich. Some do not think so, and oppose it by commenting that Fortune favours the brave. They further add that God has created the world and all the things for human beings to possess equally. It is only man who, in his mean and ego, does not care for others.
The Institutions after institutions, of any thing whether social or religious, are being founded in the name of social services. Where is there a need of another sun If alone the sun can give light and heat to whole world ?
Today, the whole world need to think on it from the depth. A man should think of his ideal, legendary and deserving status. He is the representative of God, not of The Satan. He should get rid of ill-will and make limited his desires. Of all the great contributions, The best of a man is to be the representative of humanism however be it is possible, and wherever it needs.
