CONTENTMENT, HAPPINESS AND PEACE

People who are working on different fronts can be primarily categorised into two groups. One is those working for the sake of work, nothing more than that. The other is those who want satisfac1tion for their doing.Such ones, if do not get satisfaction shall leave the work and move away. The former category shall continue to work until the scope of work is left. Whatever efforts we may put on something, but if it does not fetch any contentment, many of us may not be able to continue with it. Hence contentment is an essential return expected by many who put their efforts for anything.

There are another category of people whose ultimate aim is not contentment alone but they find something more by sharing their contentment with the near and dear ones. And what they attain from this is happiness. Happiness is, therefore, derived from sharing our contentment with others. It is a state of ECSTASY.

Then comes peace. Peace is not man made, it is divine. While many are targeting contentment, few are going for happiness but only a handpicked are seeking peace. Neither the power nor the tool and place nor the atmosphere behind our efforts are created by us and as such the contentment and happiness too do not belong to us. This concept itself is peace. All the returns from all the efforts are to be shared by all. This thought and the subsequent action fetch peace in abundance. Therefore, if we seek peace behind every doings, we shall certainly have it. We can also share the peace with all those who are associated with us. That must be the supreme state of human life on earth.

DO WE NEED TRADE UNIONS ANY MORE?

Image
Finally the communist government have forced to impose curbs on the Trade Unions in the state to mitigate the unbearable actions taken by them. Trade Unions have come into being when employees were put on hardships by the employers. The time have been changed since then. Now it is our own government and our own laws. All safety, security and welfare measures are ensured for the employee of all types. No third party is now required to safeguard justice for employees. Appropriate forums are established for employees to register their complaints either singularly or jointly. Therefore, as far as employees are concerned, they do not need any assistance from Trade Unions today. Trade Unions are now functioning as power centres of political parties. If the government is willing to stand with the people, then they can ban all Trade Unions activities in the state/country. Trade Unions today make negative contributions to the economy of the state and the country as a whole. Infact t
