Sab Maya Hay ( Materialism )

Undoubtedly,Maya has various meanings in sanskrit  it means as "illusion" while in urdu it has four meanings such as "dhoka"(Betray), "fareeb", "saraab",and  it also means "money" .
It has been observed by me,people and society have become completely materialist ,they prefer and pay much attention towards the glittering materialist things like New vehicles,Well-constructed Bungalows and Bank Balance in spite of knowing that the person who is getting much respect in the society ,has been following the foot steps of the "Evil".
Ostensibly,It should have been a task of the society to make corrupt and criminal social animals as faultless but Ah! surprisingly society encourages those who are the followers of Demon rather than letting them know that they would be punished here and hereafter if their deeds remain same.
Society Per se can solve many problems which humans have been facing since the creation of our planet but it has never been observed ever why : no one knows.
Inevitably,Society is the best friend of devil who is also not facing much resistance while provoking others because humans have made themselves not less then an evil just because of leading the path of shadowy and having corrupted their faith.If humans have had not corrupted their faith ,they would not have made successful to demon but what is this ; is a game ,played by the creator in which players are aloof as well as helpless.
Although,we have history as well as several examples of previous marred societies which can be taken into account for making our society as much better as we can but we never ponder over it.
The above posted song "Sab Maya Hay" is overtly throwing light over numerous things which have been already mooted above,has provoked my thought,asking me to do something for the society but Alas! whenever one intentionally helps out the society and its people,would think that the person who is advocating,is their enemy.However,it has become very difficult to turn out the society from the current scenario.
Covertly,every one is thinking of having materialist things instead of making another example for the posterity in which the things have been adhered by our forefathers be discussed so that our future generation,would never make blunders like us.
Shamefully,It is seen today that amity,love,sincerity,truthfulness,passion of a certain things,wife and husband relationship,kinship, and respect are given on the basis of persons materialist status.For instance,a person who is earning 3$ in a single day would not be given that much respect as given to the person earning 10$ in a day and so on.
Moreover,there are three categories in the society such as (i) Upper class (ii)middle class (iii)lower class.these all types have certain living life style.For instance,Upper class will think many a times to have either dinner or lunch with a person ,hailing from lower or middle class same as middle class person does with lower class.The most cruelest class is lower one which faces not only livelihood related issues but also churlish behavior of middle and upper class,is also throwing cold water over it in spite of having the same physical structure,is apathetic to deal like this.
Anyhow,Through this article,i would suggest a few measure to my readers to take a part in my campaign in which i want to change vision of our people who not only distort their life due to lack of education but also about to leave an example for our future generations which is very disastrous.these are the measures (i) Educate people who are living around you (ii)Help out people without taking status concept into account (iii) clean out the perception of materialism from the minds of the people by quoting them Divine acts (iv)Think your society is a part of your family so whatever you can do for your family,should also be done for the society (v) the concept of humanity should also be followed.

Impressive writing. Well.. it is a nature of man that he wants to have a prosperous life. Our society is the amalgamation of different minds, culture and customs. We get attracted from others lives and wish to have peaceful and joyous life like others.
Now, it is the duty of man that how he achieves his desired status. Very good,if he gets by positive means such as working hard, invigorating his skills on timely works and it is painful for the society if he gets the desired living standard by negative means.
Here, the responsibility of the state comes forward and the real teachings of the religion.
Its true everyone is after of materialism. Is that our fault to be materialist or are we being forced to be materialist?
Here is the need to differentiate the realistic and idealism world.
Regards

The whole concept is very interesting and it is touching the bitter contemporary reality,which always revolves in ones mind to get more n more...People are running behind the greediness to get all and only those are respected ,who are materialistically established..
very well done..keep up the good work..

A nice effort. There was a need to write different things related to materialism. Recommendations were few. No instance from the practical life was quoted to impress the reader. Still there is something worthwhile to read in ur article.
