Pride gives Pain to Everyone
He who enjoys worldly pleasures, whether he does it with his own wealth, knowledge, power and does it lawfully, as prescribed in scriptures etc. , then too he gives pain (sorrow, displeasure) to others. If you take pleasure from a particular thing, then that thing has departed from someone or the other, due to which you have gained pleasure from it. The reason is that all favorable things in the world are finite and limited. One can even get displeasure from a saint-great soul, but it is of a different kind. Their spiritual joy cannot give sorrow to anyone, but seeing them joyful as per their nature, others become displeased. Therefore that pain and displeasure is due to the other person's nature. Saints- great souls do not become the cause in that sorrow. He who with his prudence and cleverness acquires worldly things and enjoys pleasures with it, he inevitably gives sorrow to others. A happy person filled with spiritual joy, does not give sorrow to others, but others become displeased. Just as Shivaling is for praying, but if someone uses it to break their head, then what is one to do? Therefore he who is happy due to worldly pleasures, gives displeasure (sorrow) to others.
This is a very deep subject that without giving sorrow, pleasures cannot ever be enjoyed. That enjoyment of pleasures makes someone or the other dependent. With the enjoyment of pleasures, the objects of enjoyment are destroyed and the enjoyer is also doomed. No one can be saved from this. Therefore any which way, indulging in pleasure is the road to hell.
The main point is what has been told previously. Pay attention to it. Worldly pleasures are limited and are the kind to come into being and later disappear. Everyone is trying to acquire those things that are limited (finite), therefore those things will with certainty be divided (shared). But spiritual joy is unlimited, therefore there is no division of it. All can get abundance of it. Just as a mother may have ten children, then too the mother is not divided among the ten. It is not that a certain portion of the mother is one child's, the remaining belongs to the other children. Mother belongs to every one of the children, completely and totally. Similarly, God is entirely and totally ours.
When desires are entirely eradicated then pride will be wiped out and when pride goes away completely, then desires too will come to an end. When these go away, the affinity with the inert (world) will be cut off and all pleasures and deficiencies will come to an end.
Narayana ! Narayana !! Narayana !!!
