In olden times we
know that there used to be slaves who used to work in the fields, houses of the
landlords and rich peoples, these slaves were sold in the market in many
countries, in olden days, of the world. The slaves had to spent all his life in
slavery and his or her children were also being slaved from the early
childhood.
This was the
condition of the ancient world today such slaves are not bought or sold in the
world except in some places but the slavery still exist in the world. These
slavery is of different types. People are becoming slave of many things in
present time.
This slavery is very
dangerous than the slavery which used to prevail in the ancient times. As this slavery
is of different kind. The present slavery is, as we can say, is a materialistic
slavery, an immotional slavery, etc…….
In ancient times the
slaves did not have any choice as they were caught and sold away and mostly
they were the tribal peoples who were not literate. They only have to accept
the situation and live as their owner’s command. But the present day peoples
and in totally opposite condition they are well literate, they are not a tribal
person but then also they are a slave. How ?
Friends, today’s
people are slave of materialistic wealth and some are immotional slaves.
People long for all
the materialistic wealth. People want to possess everything. And once they
start possessing they slowly and steadily becomes slave they cannot do without
the thing and becomes frustrated. Here the slave is born. For eg. : if a person
once did not possessed a vehicle and used to go on foot everywhere but as soon
as he possesses a vehicle he will gradually stop going on foot and will go on
his owned vehicle and at last he would completely stop walking. This is called
slavery and then till his last breath he would be a slave.
Another type of
slavery prevailing is the immotional slavery. It is true that it is on in the
same proportion as materialistic slavery, it is in a very less proportion as in
present age immotional peoples are very less and they are called immotional
fools. But friends it is prevailing in the society. This slavery hampers a
persons own wish and will. He or she has to live as per others wish and act as
per others will. The person is not allowed to say or express any of their
wishes or could not act as per their own wishes if they do so they are
immotionally suppressed by their own fellow beings and the flow of reasons of suppressing
are also given immotionally.
Friends this stage of
life is a stage where a person first of all starts to do as per others wish, he
starts living as others want him to live and slowly and gradually he becomes
habituated to that life inspite of his own thoughts and feelings which he / she
has already started suppressing. Now the person is in that state the he / she
is not in a state to speak or express his / her own thoughts or feelings this
is a complete slavery which we can say is a mental or immotional slavery
inspite of the person’s sound mind and intellectual.
In both this type of
slavery a person is of a sound mind he is thoughtful and can think of his / her
well being but materials or immotional things makes him / her a slave.
In material slavery a
person enjoys his life inspite of being a slave but in immotional slavery the
person is not able to do so.
Lastly I would just
ask a simple question to my reader that is it true to be a slave of materials
and is it true to suppress a person who lives immotionally ?
