Almost everyone has a mobile phones these days. Everywhere you go, you will see people sporting the latest mobile phone models. Mobile phones have completely changed the way people interact. You can call, send text messages, read emails, play games as well as read and edit documents on the go. Today, mobile phones have become part and parcel of people's lives. Without mobile people feel they are handicapped, they have started considering the mobile to be part of their own body. Off course there are many advantages of mobile like you are always connected and you can have multiple use but there are some disadvantages too. And one of the biggest disadvantage is people have forgotten the real touch of each other, people have been interacting on social platform such as Facebook and Twitter, Viber and what's app, and we have practical experience of this so many relationships have broken due to neglecting real person standing in front and attending to those who are online.
Also there are some people who are mad after apps, constantly downloading newer and newer apps of games, books, social sites and they try to seek pleasure into that. They love their apps and phone so much that they forget everything else, It's well said that people have started loving things and using people, it should be loving the people and using the things. Even after taking new mobile and downloading newer and newer apps, person is not happy at all, because the hunkering of heart for love is not satisfied by app. Its a person who can give love and receive love and not the app.
This thing was very well understood by Vidura, 5000 years back, he asked question to Maitreya Rishi, he said, " everyone in the world is trying to get happiness by different things, but one finds neither satiation nor mitigation of distress, please therefore, give us the direction on how one should live for real happiness." Rishi Maitreya replied by saying, "It is only God(Krishna) who can give a real pleasure which everyone is seeking for", and Krishna is non different from his name, his form, his kathas and qualities, so whenever one hears about Krishna he is in connection with Krishna, who fills the heart with true love and satisfaction. Actually no one other than God knows us fully, He knows from which condition we are going through? What's our needs are? Because he is most closest to us as a super soul and most dear friend of all living entities.
So let's not waste our time in trying to fill the gap of heart with things like a apps but fill it with touch of supreme person 'Krishna' by reading, hearing, and chanting about Him.
