The comfort



Every comfort in our lives has degenerative impact to our physical, mental and spiritual progress. In the sense, the comfort we get from luxuries has the power to degenerate our physical strength. Similarly, to talk of the mental poisons; desire, anger, attachment, hatred, etc, which are suppose to be giving temporary pleasure have equally devastating effect to one’s mind and spiritual progress. The pleasure of five senses, the taste, sight, fragrance, touch and sound leads us to demand for more pleasurable sense objects, ignoring the basic pleasure we obtain at initial phase. So we demand more luxuries, which in scientific term could be related to development of resistance, as that of drug resistance over frequent use.
