Hungry for Power

Why are people hungry for power?
People are hungry for power because they want attention and recognition.

Power is a means, just like money. Passion is for an end. People who do not see power or money as a means, but see it as an end in itself, they do not live, they simply exist.
If you do not realize that you are THE power -- that is to say that you are enlightened, then you crave for power.

You crave for attention and recognition if:
You don’t have any talents,
You have no love or passion,
You are not innocent and childlike.

If you don’t have any talent and you are not contributing anything substantial to society, like an artist or a scientist, or an Art of Living teacher or volunteer, then you are hungry for power.
If you don’t have love or passion to bring about transformation in the society, then you are hungry for power.

If you are not innocent and childlike and don’t have a sense of belongingness with the whole world, then you are hungry for power.

Those who do not have any of these four, like some politicians, crave for power.
The true power is the power of the spirit; real confidence, strength and happiness all spring from the spirit. And one who knows this and has this is not hungry for power at all.

सत्ता की भूख

लोग सत्ता के भूखे क्यो होते है?
लोग सत्ता के भूखे इसलिए होते है क्योंकि वे अपनी ओर ध्यान आकर्षित करना चाहते है औरअपनी पहचान बनाना चाहते है। जिस प्रकार धन साधन होता है उसी प्रकार सत्ता भी साधन है किसी परिणाम को पाने के लिए जोश होता है। जो लोग सत्ता और धन को साधन न मानकर, साध्य मांन लेते है वे जीते नही है, केवल मौजूद है। यदि तुमने यह नही जाना कि तुम ही शक्ति हो- अर्थात तुम ही ब्रह्मज्ञानी हो तब तुम में सत्ता की भूख होगी।

तुम अपने ऊपर ध्यान आकर्षित करवाना चाहोगे और अपनी पहचान बनाना चाहोगे जब-
तुम्हारे अंदर कोई प्रतिभा नही होती, तुम्हारे अंदर प्रेम या उत्साह नही होता, तुम मासूम और बच्चों जैसा सहज नही होते।

यदि तुम्हारे अंदर कोई प्रतिभा न हो, समाज मे तुम्हारा कोई सार्थक योगदान न हो, जैसे कि एक कलाकार, वैज्ञानिक, आर्ट ऑफ लिविंग टीचर या स्वयंसेवक का होता है, तब तुम सत्ता की आकांक्षा करोगे।

यदि तुमसे समाज मे परिवर्तन लाने के लिए प्रेम या जोश नही है तब तुम सत्ता की अभिलाषा करोगे।

यदि तुम एक बच्चे की तरह सहज नही हो, सम्पूर्ण विश्व के साथ तुम्हे अपनापन नही लगता हो, तब तुम्हे सत्ता की अभिलाषा होती है।

जिन लोगो के पास इन चारों में से एक भी नही होता, जैसे कि कुछ राजनीतिज्ञ, वो सत्ता की आकांक्षा करते है।

सच्ची शक्ति , आत्मा की शक्ति होती है। वास्तविक आत्मविश्वास , बल और खुशी का प्रस्फुरण आत्मा से होता है। जो यह जानता है और जिसके पास वे है वह शक्ति के लिए बिल्कुल भी भूखा नही होता।
