Everyone is a seeker by nature, but everyone lives his life without knowing its real purpose. As a result of the ensuing sense of aimlessness, people live in a state of confusion, full of contradictions. They yearn to find something, without knowing what it is. A tension-free mind is one that can function positively despite contrariety. People work, but find no job satisfaction. They earn money but experience no inner satisfaction. They live by the formula ‘Enjoy life’, but they don’t know what real enjoyment is! It is a paradoxical situation. Everyone is living in this state of self-contradiction. This is a self-created problem. When the Creator has given you a mind and made you free to use it, you should make use of this opportunity. Activate your thinking capacity. Discover reality. Read what is hidden in nature in an unwritten form. This is the only way to extract yourself from this psychological chaos. The consciousness of truth is interwoven in your nature; it is very easy, therefore, to discover the Truth. The only condition is to shun distraction, to follow the well-known principle of simple living and high thinking. If you want to save yourself from going astray, activate your thinking faculty. Think, think and think! You will surely reach the gates of Truth. o Circulation NOTICE to "SOI" Subscribers Esteemed subscribers of ''Spirit of Islam'' monthly are hereby informed that the magazine is posted under a Postal Registration Licence from Bengaluru on 24th/26th of each month.
