It is quite natural for a person to set a goal and achieve it. According to the teachings of Ayurveda, all aspirations, fantasies, actions and thoughts of a person can be combined into 4 basic groups.
To become happy, to achieve integrity and harmony is possible only if a balance is achieved between desires and the real situation in life.
A strong desire generates our aspirations. Conscious and unconscious motivations force us to act.
Ayurveda identifies four groups of life aspirations:
- ARTHA, which includes desire and pursuit of feelings, wealth, business, prosperity, profit;
- DHARMA, which chooses religion and includes a sense of justice, virtue, merit;
- KAMA – the pursuit of pleasure and lust;
- MOKSHA – enlightenment, liberation of the soul from worldly vanity, unity with the Consciousness of the Cosmos.
Creating a square out of these aspirations leads a person to balance, stability, and harmony with the world around them and the universe.
We can also talk about the presence of four dimensions in a person's life: physical and material, mental, emotional, and spiritual. All these dimensions exist regardless of our position in society, our activity or passivity. They exist and must be reckoned with.
Dharma, in principle, is a set of moral values and actions that correspond to natural attitudes. Concepts such as "good" or "bad" should not be used here, based on our preferences. The natural principles of existence cannot be changed or adjusted to suit our taste in such a way that it pleases and suits only us as a person.
Artha is closely related to the mind. It also involves our organs of five senses and the organs that realize these feelings – hands, feet, tongue, excretory and genital organs. In this case, we can talk about the physical dimension of a person.
Kama is related to our feelings and emotions. This is where our inspiration comes from, and our emotional rise or fall, and the rise of creativity, and love.
Moksha is our spiritual dimension, which people often neglect, believing that it is not worth developing this component. This is the great misconception of mankind!
Our aspirations are defined by 4 dimensions. Our life activities are always associated with one of the groups, therefore, they are the motivation for the desire of the body or the physical world, sensations, feelings or emotions, the mental or spiritual world.
For motivation, all aspirations must be combined into a single whole. Having set a goal for oneself, a person must simultaneously prepare the body, mind, soul and heart. Only then will the goal be achieved, the plans implemented and the forces saved.
Mechanical activity or action is always ineffective. Being active with the presence of reason, but without a soul, can create situations where, in order to achieve one goal or another, you simply have to go over someone's heads and disregard the moral and ethical code. Acting with your mind, heart and soul is what you should strive for!
To fully realize yourself in life, you should always strive to find a balance between the four dimensions or aspirations. According to the teachings of Ayurveda, a person should turn his gaze towards spiritual goals (Moksha), based on the principles of morality (Dharma), and supporting his existence with material desires (Artha) and emotional and social aspirations (Kama). Only then will the world open up in all its beauty and give you the joy of being and good health! brabet
