________________ 25 pride and honour and for the sake of being. recognised and called big, they forget all about Dharma, Karma and Atma. In the ultimate, these very souls have to taste bitter fruits of these very Karmas. The future is infinite yet for the sake of detestable pleasures of this momentary existence and short span of life they take upon themselves the burden of undergoing inisery for infinite time. Aha! What a great folly?... Man entertains vanity for his intellect. Becoming arrogant, he utters incoherently whatever comes to his mind. He thinks of every minute of this life but when this life becomes extinct what will happen? What will be the condition after the soul has left the body ? Where will it go ? He does not even think of this for a moment. Palaces, wealth and power all these are meant only for this life. Taking uneatable things like meat, fish etc., he fattens the body but he does not remember that at the end it will be turned into ashes in a minute. He forgets this fact entirely. - Ha | Ha! An ignorant soul spending his tiine in the enjoyment of sensual pleasures wastes his life like an animal and loses the advantage
