Realization

Ignorance isn't always a bliss at all.Realization in time is a stitch in time.One has to remember the idiom "better late than never"with regard to realization.It is always better one realizes & does something.Without efforts no realization generally takes place. Before doing anything seldom one realizes what they are doing is wrong. They wouldn't have done it had they known that it's wrong. Realization is a slow process. Some don't realize what they have done is wrong at any time all. One who realizes what they are doing is wrong in time is really fortunate. One regrets most in life for not having realized in time. Realization removes darkness and opens eyes. There won't be confusion and doubts after realization. Realization makes one understand what's good & bad. It gives true & clear picture .It isn't an one time affair at all.It's continuous from beginning to end of life.It imprints not erasable messages on the mind & soul. It is an unforgettable necessary experience.

In Banking realization means that payment of an instrument has been received. It is a realization of the value of an instrument like cheque, bill of exchange, draft, etc. Duration taken for realization of a cheque drawn on a place say 200 miles away normally remains same.But in real life, realization depends on many factors like intelligent quotient, efforts, opportunities, inquisitiveness of individuals. In other words realization depends more upon an individual. There are individuals who don't realize simple matters too. Some individuals don't realize either difficulties or sufferings of other people. They are hard nut to crack. Further,quality and quantity of realization differ from man to man. Realization doesn't take place simultaneously in everybody too. That is why some realize early and some belatedly though all of them want to realize a particular matter only.

We needn't go to a forest & meditate to become a saint to have realization. We can remain in society and lead a simple life and have realization. After all there should be will, devotion and efforts.Where there is a will there is always a way.

In real life realization means ourselves coming to know and understanding completely and fully well through various means. We may advise a person a number of times, yet it may have a little effect . One would follow our advice only when they realize its value or usefulness.It is realization that can make one understand anything better.Realization is an effective tool . That which is understood through realization remains in memory for a long time. Realizations make a man different.

Realization is very important in life. In life,everybody has to realize right from their birth to their death. There is no end to realizations. It is impossible to realize everything also.Many times one may not realize good or bad of what they do until someone points out .What is the use if one does not realize good or bad of what they do or what others do to them.Many times we discard many things without realizing their value. Many times we realize value of people only after their demise.When one realizes that a person is bad they distance themselves from that person . Similarly,when one realizes that a place is dangerous they vacate it.Life is full of realizations .It is realizations that makes a person great.

What type of a person one is and how to deal with him or her we realize through their behavior.Not only One can realize their own strengths but also one can realize their own weaknesses too. Besides, one can also realize strengths and weaknesses of others too.

Realizations are undoubtedly there behind anybody's achievement. One’s capabilities they themselves can realize . Others need not point out their capabilities at all. There are two ways to obtain realization.One is self realization and the other is realization through others.

It is always better if one realizes anything instead of it being pointed out to them. More one thinks, more one studies, more one involves more pains one puts in, more one realizes. As one grows old one realizes more. Longer one lives, one realizes more. It is at the fag end of one’s life normally realizations are optimum. It is when one would have realized almost everything and a little would be left at that time to them to realize . Of course, everybody does not realize equally in this universe. Capability to realize varies from individual to individual. Some realize more and some realize less.It is better if realization or realizations take place timely. One who realizes anything in time is really fortunate. In fact,realization in time is as good as a stitch in time. Sometimes when realization takes place it would too late and realization would be of no avail at all. It is always better if one realizes earlier than later. At the same time one must remember an idiom -“it is better late than never” too. Of course, mere realization is also no good. Realization should be utilized appropriately. While advising also one should realize and when one should advise and when one should not advise, whom one should advise and whom one should not advise , what one should advise and what one should not advise.

Realizations give rise to feelings.It does not always give rise to same feeling. Sometimes realization makes one happy. Sometimes realization makes one unhappy.Sometimes realization makes one angry and sometimes it makes one depressed.When one realizes that the other has sacrificed for their sake they become grateful to the other. On the other hand when one realizes that the other is ungrateful they begin to dislike the other.

What would be one’s reaction when they realize that they have great talent in them? What would be one's reaction when they realize that they are affected by a dreaded disease? And what would be one's reaction when they realize they are good for nothing? Answers to these questions lead us to conclusion that sometimes realizations are sweeter, sometimes realizations are bitter and sometimes realizations are shocking.

Sometimes efforts are needed to realize. Sometimes efforts aren't necessary to realize. Sometimes circumstances or situations make one realize. Often studies lead to realization. It is on account of realization one comes to know what reality is. It enables one to distinguish between reality and fiction. Realization awakens one. Realization is a lesson. Realization ushers in changes in man. It transforms a human being. Generally one treads a better path after realization. It is only after realization, one commences preaching.On realization that all isn't well and something dangerous is likely to take place one puts themselves on guard. One draws up their own strategy. Realization unfolds solution to many vexed problems.

It's not only after successes one realizes, but also one realizes even after defeats, failures, and mistakes too. Normally, one laments if realization does not take place in time. If realization takes place after an event or incident it may not serve one a great deal at all. It may be put to use only in future. It can be only noted by one for their future guidance and follow up. Of course, it is better to have some realization than not having anything at all. Even a realization before an event or after an incident may not fully serve a purpose. It is always better if realization takes place at an appropriate time. If realization does not take place in time one gets perplexed. They would not know what to do at that moment and whatever they do would be generally imperfect. If realization does not take place in time a failure is certain.It is realization that brings makes one understand whether it is an important matter or a petty matter. Further, mere realization is of no use too.One has to translate whatever they realize into deeds to get benefited.It is difficult to predict when and how a realization would take place in a human being.

There is much much to realize in life. There are no bounds and barriers to realization. One can realize as much as they could. Nobody disturbs them in this regard except their will. There is realization of difficulties, realization of weakness or strength, realization of faults or mistakes, realization of truth or falsehood etc. Then there is self-realization, spiritual realization and realization of nature of other people by studying their behavior etc. Enlightenment is also nothing but realization. What Bhagwan Mahaveer, Bhagwan Gautam Buddha and other saints had is enlightenment. Realization is a great quality. It is not vested with everybody in the same proportion.

Realization is always better in any matter than anybody advising and our taking a decision. Similarly, others realizing and taking decision is better than our advising them in any manner whatsoever. If we are humane, if we have understanding nature by experience we could realize these various types of realizations according to circumstances, we face, opportunities we get and capacity we have. Further, whether it is a poem, a novel, an essay, a write up, for that matter any literary work, whatever it may be is nothing but realization of the relative authors. Realization is supreme in life. It can do and undo many things. Generally, realization is there behind every success, and invention.

Many of our problems would be solved and we would have great satisfaction provided we realize what is good or bad and make others also realize what is good or what is bad. Realization needs always thinking. More we think, more we realize. More we realize more knowledgeable we would be. It is all a chain. Realization is cure to many ills. If we could make the victims realize ill -effects, definitely it would be easy to eradicate drunkenness, and drug addiction. Generally at least at the end we realize something . Similarly, realization leads to many beginnings too. Realization has no bounds at all. One may realize what the other may not. Our efforts are always quite important for the purpose .

Society comprises of various kind of people. In it,some are rich. Some are fortunate and don't come across any difficulties in life. Some are poor, some are hard working, and some are lazy. Some are selfish, some are kind hearted and generous, some are harsh and miserly some are educated, some are uneducated and so on. The attitude of every kind of people would be different The way they react to different situations in life differently. The way they realize is also different. Some realize quickly. Some realize gradually. Some don't realize at all. Realization depends upon an individual.If one is selfish, they may not care to realize others’ difficulties even if others are suffering before their eyes. Selfishness makes them blind and makes them lose humanity too. Sometimes revengeful attitude makes the people very hard and they stand watching the enemy suffering even though they could realize that enemy is suffering. They do not go to rescue.

It is the nature of a person that plays a dominant part in realizing others others difficulties. If an individual is kind hearted good natured, he immediately realizes and rushes to help the person in difficulties, whoever the latter may be, his only concern would be that in what best way he could render help. This kind of realization is quite essential. Society needs such people. But realization instinct isn't vested in everybody in same proportion.

Human nature is unpredictable and it is very difficult to understand the same. If somebody realizes others difficulties and renders timely help, whether the latter would be able to forget it. Definitely they would not be able to. A friend in need is friend indeed. They would be always being remembered .A feeling of gratitude would arise in latter. Otherwise they would be called ungrateful. The bond of friendship or relation further strengthens. They would be waiting for an opportunity to reciprocate. On the other hand if some realize but could not extend help because of their plight in life. But they express their sympathies and win over the hearts. In such situations even sympathies work wonders. They give the strength to the aggrieved to bear the difficulties. It is known as moral support .

There are other people who not only realize the difficulties but also could help but do not help despite a request being made .They do not shed crocodile tears even. Instead they laugh at the plight of needy .It might be due to previous grudge they bear to the people in agony or they might be sadistic. The relation gets more strained or broken or widened. There are people who do help with a motive or anticipation. When the anticipation does not materialize they become sad. Even if they want the aggrieved to reciprocate their gesture, it is not praise worthy. There are people who want to take advantage of others difficulties. They wait to usurp the properties of people in distress at throw away price. That is misusing the situation. There are people, even if somebody is dying also who are not at all bothered. They are in their own world. They are either drug addicts or drunkards or heartless. That is why it seems elders say that people of different nature exceed their numbers. Always we should help others without anticipating anything in return.

Similarly to realize some universal truths like wealth is not everything, charity begins at home, if character is lost everything is lost, if health is lost something is lost, if wealth is nothing is lost, an apple a day keeps the doctor away, early to bed early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise etc persons take their own time. It is the experience or circumstances that make them realize these truths and thousands of other similar truths.All quotes, sayings and proverbs are realizations of our elders only. There is no end to learning, limit is sky. Truth always prevails. By learning we can only understand matter but to get the same deep rooted in us we should experience or realize. Once if one realizes the truth means the same would never loath them. If at all falsehood triumphs, it is only temporarily. We can fool anybody once but not always. Lies would come to the surface, sooner or later. If one is a liar, would always continue to be a liar.

Every living person has feelings .We should realize others’ feelings and know how to sooth them .This is always quite necessary. What we need for this tact is experience, common sense, will etc. As far as possible we should not hurt anybody’s feeling knowingly or unknowingly. One who does not care for others feelings is not human at all. This does not mean that we should try to please others but at the same time harm others too. It is not possible to please others fully. It is foolish too. We must give due importance to others feeling so that we need not repent for that at a later date and subjected to cursing by the aggrieved persons .It may even lead to animosity unnecessarily.

More than anything else our conscience shouldn't prick us for the wrong doing eventually .Insult is nothing but wounding one’s feeling. Wounding one’s feeling tantamount to hurting lion in its den; a serpent in its nest .Only weak people may remain calm. But they do remember the insults and would wait for an opportunity to strike. Even a child may forget the beating it had from kith and kin but would remember the incidents which wounded its feelings .Actually, they are done with good intention of teaching proper behavior and as soon as it realizes the same it forgets it. Similarly we may forget a fight or a quarrel which we had with others but not the insults. Insults remain within us .Insult is just like adding salt to the injury. Nobody generally share their insults with others. Insults are never forgotten unless they are settled. Insults end in murders, revenge etc. too.Insults anger everybody.

Some realize their mistakes and repent . They resolve not to repeat them. They try to make amends for their mistakes too. There are instances where one does not realize their mistakes through out their life also. This should never be encouraged and allowed to take place. One should realize their mistakes and faults too. It is known as self realization. Otherwise, one cannot make out that they are treading a wrong path though others in the world could easily make out. Self realization is a great quality. It does not take place in everybody. It takes place only in some that too occasionally. Self realization can bring in results where other efforts like advice by dear and near were of no avail. Further, once one realizes what is good and what is bad, they generally would never tread a wrong path.

As soon as we come to know of our fault we should try to set it right at the earliest. Mistakes are generally committed unknowingly. As soon as we realize our mistake, or pointed by somebody we should express regrets.We should note to not repeat such a mistake in the future. If we repeat the same mistake once again; it would become deliberate or intentional. Mistakes committed wantonly are unpardonable. Certainly, there could be some motive behind such mistakes. To-day or tomorrow the purpose would come to light that might jeopardize relation or act adversely to us. They would not be called as mistakes even. However we should learn from our mistakes.

Everybody has their strengths and weaknesses. Nobody is perfect in this world. Unless we mingle with a particular person whose strengths and weaknesses we would like to know,it is impossible to realize the same. We must observe and study their behavior to come to know of their strengths and weaknesses. It is an art. It requires patience knowledge and capability.

Similarly we could develop any number of habits. But to realize which habit is good or bad, we should have experience, knowledge, common sense. Sometimes it is said that it is company that spoils us. If we are in a bad company, we would fall a prey to bad habits. But mainly it depends upon an individual only to a great extent. It is said that lead a good life and habits would make it pleasant. Education, culture, traditions etc show us right path. While treading any path we should be very careful. Tomorrow there is no use of crying over split milk. Circumstances, knowledge, experience etc teach us and make us realize what is right or good and what is wrong or bad. Nobody does anything wrong or bad knowingly unless they are made up of such mettle. But ignorance of law is no excuse.

Conscience is nothing but realization which needs compliance and we would be reminded again and again of our duty by our sub-conscious mind until sub-conscious mind is fully satisfied with our compliance of our duties .Some people’s nature is such that they cannot keep quiet. They have to do something. Whether it is good or bad they do not think even. They have to do something in return. Especially adolescent people who are not brought up properly or those who are not matured adequately belong to this category. They do sometimes what is wrong or bad but once they realize what they have done is wrong or bad, they do not repeat such acts generally again. However it is better to keep them under close supervision and guidance till they attain complete maturity .Here maturity means their ability to realize on their own or understanding anything and everything they themselves. Some people think that they are always right. It is impossible to mend such people. It is waste of one’s energy and time. At least when we realize this fact we should discontinue our efforts. These are the lessons of life .

It is only enlightened people who had self realization know fully well what's good or what's right. They act accordingly.They act perfectly for the welfare of the people in this world. They are the only who could guide the people in all respects. We should follow them. Realization has bearing on human nature and transformation of human nature too.Only after Kalinga war blood thirsty Emperor Ashoka realized violence is bad and became a follower of Buddhism which preaches non-violence.It is always better if one realizes at appropriate moment. Of course, realizing at any time does not serve often any purpose.
