No comparison
This comparison is one of the biggest reasons of our sufferings and difficulties. The comparison gives birth to competition and it gives birth to jealousy and enmity.
Most of people can not rise without competition. A second ranked student wants to get first rank. When my neighbour brings a costly car, I want to purchase a costliar one. This competition does not stop upto individual level. It goes upto society to society, nation to nation, even religion to religion.
Nowadays we are listening a new word i.e. Healthy Competition. But we can see ourselves that it always converts in jealousy and enmity.
This comparison and competition also give us inferiority complex. When we get unsuccess in comparison to others we come in grip of inferiority complex.
So how we can progress. The spirituality gives us the natural answer. It says that your soul always requires to be perfect. So Do not compare with others, listen the voice of your soul, it will give you a way for your perfection, then you will not be seeing others. In a practical approach spirituality says to always try for your 100%. If somebody is 85% in any field, you are not to gain 86% but to try for 100% and it will drag away the feeling of comparison and competition. There will be no jealousy and enmity between person and person, society and society and nation and nation.
So we should believe that every person, every society, every nation has been made for a particular achievement. There is no need of comparison in any respect.

Towards Spirituality
Is there anything which is higher than mind , to understand it, to feel it is the first step towards spirituality. We often feel that our mind is unable to solve our problems and that time we normally call the God, we get solution from God but we forget it when our happy time comes.
If we do not break this little contact with God and try to develop it we can see all our problems have been vanished away.
But when we get our happy days we come to lower consciousness. Why? The God’s consciousness or God has three aspects or powers. These are existence ( Sat ), consciousness ( Chit ) and bliss ( Anand ). But to feel the bliss of God is tougher. Till we do not feel somewhat of this bliss, we come back to lower consciousness to get pleasures which are stained forms of bliss. In our days of problems we normally go to Sat and moreover then to Chit. We get our problems solved and that was our only aim. Without feeling bliss it is but natural to come down to lower consciousness to get pleasures as man can not live without pleasures.
These pleasures are transitory and take our high amount of energy to acquire them and to enjoy them. They give us a diminishing pleasure as well.
So we should try to live in continuous contact of God to feel his bliss. In starting we will see some little glimpses of his bliss. They will attract us more and one day will come when we will understand that these pleasures are nothing in comparison to God’s bliss. Whatever we will get in form of God’s bliss that will be always perpetual and ever increasing. And then it will be impossible for us to go back to those petty pleasures.
