Why are we born? May be for Karma? But then while going through this entire round, what do we get? What do we bring here? What do we take from here? What is the purpose? Why education is so important? Why schools grow so much? Why every child has to be sent to school? What do we miss if we do not get education? Well, answer to all these questions is learning.
We all are born here to learn. Even from karma, ultimately what we get is learning. Let’s say someone is fulfilling the Karma for honesty. He was dishonest earlier. Now he feels everyone else is dishonest here. But then he starts learning, he can create a cycle of honesty and how it helps. Someone did not take care of the health and ate what he liked and did what he liked. Then doctors gave him an alarm and reminded him that how important it is to come on track. And then he learned about the importance of this body.
Everything here is designed in a way. Many years of initial years of our lives are spent in learning and we grow very fast. We learn so much. And then we feel we have learned enough! So we stop making an effort. Actually we had not made an effort to learn earlier too. We grow in a system where we keep learning by instructions. But once we are free from that system, we set ourselves so much free that we forget why was this stem created and no one can instruct us forever. And we stop learning. We feel we are free. In reality, we start going backward without learning. Staying where we are instead of marching ahead also is going backward. It is like we park our car on a busy road and feel, we have travelled enough. But then we would realize, everyone has moved forward.
So how do we continue? Learn all you can. Use all you can. Guide all you can. And when you start learning again, you would realize, how you start growing again in life. You would realize that how everything is becoming clear to you again.
