Srimad Bhagavat Gita commentary chapter 16 verse 11

 Chapter 16 verse 11 

“They are obsessed with endless anxieties that end only with death. Still, they maintain with complete assurance that gratification of desires and accumulation of wealth is the highest purpose of life.” 

When we will all realize that the entire world is a stage where a play or drama has been setup for us to act out? As I say, we are all actors on this material stage of the world. “rang manch ke kat putli-puppets in a puppet stage play”. I have seen close relatives who were anxious about family, great grand children et al which shows the love and affection they have for family but at some point, we need to detach ourselves from the material world without being disengaged. Recently, a hedge fund firm in wallstreet went belly up due to gross over leverage of derivative calls. Gordon Gekko in the movie “wallstreet” said “Greed is good”. It is not. “God is good and greed is demonic”.
