My childhood is dead, my youth is dead, my adolescence is dead, but I am still alive!

Spirituality is not just another department in life after 40 and after having fulfilled your responsibilities, in the material plane then to give us peace, happiness and contentment throughout our remaining life we turn to spirituality. The whole world must be seen as a cosmic wheel of activity governed by the laws of nature, and whosoever is not able to adhere to it, only leads a meaningless life Selfishness is not living as one wishes to live; it is asking others to live as one wishes to live, one does evil enough when one does nothing.
As the years roll by, life in all its myriad ramifications still seems elusive as ever. Living simply and wisely, like our ancestors seems unattainable in today's world. knowledge begets pain, seems to unify in the way of an unconsummated marriage of fire with water. No celestial dance of any kind, once you underwrite the ..."urbane madness" everything is unreal, artificial!!
Like the phoenix rising from thrashes of the pine forests of Arizona, my mind wanders in the complete silence of this symbol, to rekindle the lost fire in my heart. In love, pain is a blessing that will be blown away to the four corners, by the desert's vast supply of winds.
When we are young and immature we wonder through life as if it were a game soaking in the palette of colors of life missing the woods for the trees. Finally we bid goodbye to happy adolescence to don the finery of adult life. Now suddenly our vision is clouded by ideas, opinions, misconceptions and abstractions. By wearing the armor of ego, we lose the vital sense of mystery, and the burden of pain is thrust in our lives. It is the turning point in our lives and we become seekers to decipher the notions of the mind..--Vinay-
As God's chair is empty all sorts of self appointed religious heads sit on it, assuming all authority. They imagine all knowledge and their comprehensive framework outlining whatever meets their eye, some are good orators. They think they know everything worth knowing in this Universe. Everything?? Their main business is is to examine, not the individual, but the whole species and pass judgment. They of course don't understand the environment or the different species that inhabit planet earth.
We have been educated to such a fine (dull) extent, that we are incapable of enjoying the simple life. We don't follow our heart or intuitively trust our senses. Is there anything that we can build that will protect us/nation that the revenge of nature cannot destroy?
