Perhaps what comes to mind is world peace, no sufferring, everyone is happy and emotionally satisfying. Well, you can include it in your bucket list. This environment, although achievable but it is impossible for the time being. The reason I said that can be evident from what is happening to the world today. War, crimes, homosexuality, adultery, rapes, kidnaps, prostitution, organ harvesting, torture, hatred, corruption, illnesses, epidemic, human trafficking, gangsters, corrupted authorities, immoral activities, and the list goes on.
So, what is an ideal world?
- Think of others first before we do anything
- Look within when problems arise, don't point figures at others
- Stay calm and kind disregard of all matters positive or negative
- Have a compassion and tolerance heart, and be truthful
- Gradually remove all human attachments, desires and demonic thoughts
- Improve morality
- Be compassionate to all beings
- Built virtues
- Remove envy and jealousy
The nine factors I mentioned sound simple and can be followed, but in reality, it is impossible to achieve. If it is achievable, why are there so much social illnesses? Poverty? Crime? Corruption etc.
Today's measure of success is really distorted. It is measure by only one factor, money. Well, the reason we come to that is because of ourselves, we let money to become the measurement and the only tangible achievement people can see.
I personally worked with billionaires and millionaires (Tan Sri, Dato' Seri, Dato', Datuk etc), and I can only sum up in one word, they are morally corrupted. What they do is basically cheat from the mass, and enrich themselves. They have all the justifications and excuses for themselves when they are confronted, saying, the environment is like that, everyone does it, this is a way of life in this society. It is this way because they let it, it takes two hands to clap. The easy way out is to blame.
Some twisted minds or majority even supported this concept, saying that this is street smart. In the ancient time, these people is a disgrace to the society, and should be stoned to death. Because, today the law is on their side, they will use money to buy their way out. I can safely says that they are just cowards hiding behind laws.
