The paradoxes of life!
 
 
 

‘LIFE’ it makes you think


The paradox of our time in history is that
 
We have  
 
Taller buildings   Shorter tempers
Wider freeways Narrower viewpoints
Bigger houses Smaller families
More conveniences But less time
We have more degrees Less sense
More knowledge Less judgment
More experts Less solutions
The paradoxes of life!
More medicine Less wellness
Multiplied our possessions Reduced our values
Conquered outer space Not inner space
Cleaned up the air Polluted the soul
Split the atom Not our prejudice
Higher incomes Lower morals
Become long on quantity Short on quality
 
The paradoxes of life!
We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often.
We've learned how to make a living, but not a life;
we've added years to life, not life to years.
We've been all the way to the moon and back, but have
trouble crossing the street to meet the new neighbour.
 

We spend more, but have less;


we buy more, but enjoy it less.
 
The paradoxes of life!
These are the times of
Tall men Short character
Steep profits Shallow relationships
World peace Domestic warfare
More leisure Less fun
More kinds of food Less nutrition
Two incomes More divorce
Fancier houses Broken homes
 
The paradoxes of life!
It is a time when there is much in the show
window and nothing in the stockroom

‘LIFE’ it makes you think…


 
Searching for the right
thing in the wrong place

The Goal of Human Life
To inquire about -
? A permanent solution to the REAL
problems of life
? Permanent relief from all miseries
? An eternal life of BLISS, PEACE and
HAPPINESS.

Therefore to inquire about -


? The root cause of all causes
? The source of everything
"One should inquire into
the Supreme…"
