THE TRUTH OF THE LIFE OF THIS WORLD (VIDEO)

http://api.fmanager.net/api_v1/productDetail.php?dev-t=EDCRFV&objectId=1276





Wickedness, injustice, grief, pessimism, trouble, loneliness, fear, stress, frustration, distrust, unscrupulousness, anxiety, rage, jealousy, resentment, drug addiction, immorality, gambling, prostitution, hunger, poverty, social corruption, theft, war, struggle, violence, oppression, fear of death… News about these issues appear in the newspapers and on TV every day. The popular press devotes entire pages to these subjects, while others serialise articles about their psychological and social aspects. However, our acquaintance with these feelings is not limited solely to the press; in daily life, we, too, frequently come across such problems and, more importantly, personally experience them.

People and societies endeavour to liberate themselves from the distressing experiences, disorder and repressive social structures that have prevailed over the world for long periods. We only need to glance at ancient Greece; the Great Roman Empire; Tsarist Russia, or the so-called Age of Enlightenment, and even the 20th century-a century of misery which saw two world wars and world-wide social disasters. No matter upon which century or location you concentrate your research, the picture will not be appreciably different.

If this is the case, why haven't people succeeded in solving these problems, or at least some efforts been made to remove such social diseases from society?

People have encountered these problems in all ages, yet each time they have failed to find any solutions because the methods they employed were inappropriate. They sought various solutions, tried different political systems, laid down impracticable and totalitarian rules, stirred up revolutions or subscribed to perverted ideologies, while many others preferred to adopt an indifferent attitude and merely accepted the status quo.

In our day, people are almost numbed by this way of living. They readily believe these problems to be "facts of life." They picture a society immune to these problems as being nothing short of impossible-a dream utopia. They persistently and openly express their distaste for such a way of living, yet easily embrace it, since they think they have no other alternative.

The resolution of all these problematic issues is possible only by living by the principles of the "true religion." Only when the values of true religion prevail can a pleasant and tranquil scene replace this gloomy and unfavourable picture, which is doomed to continue so long as God's limits are ignored. To put it another way, people are enslaved by these complications as long as they avoid the values of the Qur'an. Put simply, this is the "nightmare of disbeliefe" and the link below for this wonderful book:



http://fs.harunyahya.net/popup/Download.php?WorkNumber=256&Format=pdf



you will find how the regulation of life by the "norms of morality" introduced by the Qur'an revealed to mankind by God will banish the "nightmare of disbeliefe," how pessimism, corruption and social restlessness can be eliminated from society, how the individual can surround himself with an ideal environment, what spiritual and material benefits he is likely to attain by adherence to these norms of morality are gone into in detail, and finally, that the unique alternative to all these problems is the morality of the Qur'an.

So far, many books have attempted to deal with the social and psychological problems societies face. Yet, what distinguishes this book from others is its stress on the most realistic solution. It also sincerely warns people against the troublesome future they are likely to face if they fail to resort to this solution.

We expect that every reader of conscience will grasp that peace, mutual trust and an ideal social life is attainable only by embracing the values of the Qur'an and will turn to the true religion, which is Islam.

They will then happily join the ranks of those who never suffer, mentally or physically, from any of the above-mentioned complications. Around them, there will always be an abundance of favours, comfort, love, respect, peace and confidence, and moral virtues will prevail. They will know how to earn God's approval, by observing His limits and the commandments of the Qur'an. They will thus, by having faith in God, attain His mercy and at last enter Paradise.



Real happiness and peace can be ONLY found in submitting to the commands of the Creator and the Sustainer of this world. God has said in the Qur’an: (Truly, in remembering God do hearts find rest.)

(Qur’an, 13:28)



On the other hand, the one who turns away from the Qur’an will have a life of hardship in this world. God has said:

(But whoever turns away from the Qur’an, he will have a hard life, and We will raise him up blind on the Day of Judgment.) (Qur’an, 20:124)

This may explain why some people commit suicide while they enjoy the material comfort money can buy. For example, look at Cat Stevens (now Yusuf Islam), formerly a famous pop singer who used to earn sometimes more than $150,000 a night. After he converted to Islam, he found true happiness and peace, which he had not found in material success.

At this web page, you can read the thoughts and feelings of these people, who are from different countries and have different backgrounds and levels of education.



In the Holy Quran, God (Allah) has said:



125. Those whom Allah (in His plan) willeth to guide,- He openeth their breast to Islam; those whom He willeth to leave straying,- He maketh their breast close and constricted, as if they had to climb up to the skies: thus doth Allah (heap) the penalty on those who refuse to believe.

(Quran,6,125)

Not eating for any number of days isn't going to create permanent weight loss. You're dizzy because your body needs food, and water. If you are really concerned about weight, start eating again, start with some vegetables, carrots, celery, and the like. Throw in some fruit. Go for a walk. Those endorphin things everyone talks about will kick in, help burn calories, but also help lift your mood.

And... you probably don't want to hear this.... go to the doctor.

or therapist.

Depression is nothing to mess around with. Been there, regularly. Had the suicidal thoughts too. But you need to let the little rational side of your brain talk to you for a minute.

How does suicide really help. Okay, you think you won't feel like you do anymore, but no one really knows if that's true. And what about your friends and family? how are they going to get through? Are they going to start thinking it's all their fault? They should have seen it coming? Are you leaving things behind that someone else is now going to have to deal with, because you couldn't?

There is help. A lot of it.

Please, Please, Please, talk to a professional.

it may take some time to work through everything, but there are better days ahead.

In the mean time, please eat something, even a peanut butter and jelly sandwich (I like mine on toast)



Good luck.

starving yourself is not the way to make yourself feel better - i have had depressive states since I was 11, every now and again I get this euphoric state of happiness - like nothing could ever bring me down and its a strange happiness, then I have terrible bouts of massive lows... I feel like if I eat it only makes me feel like thats all I am ever going to do in my life, always just eat, sleep, get up, feel bad, eat more, sleep again and the cycle goes on and on...

I used to cut myself to make myself feel better but all it does is ruin the way your skin looks and makes people wary of you - Don't starve yourself, eat some sugar and especially chocolate, it releases the hormone Vitamin B which is known as the "happy hormone" because its that that controls your moods etc.. Dont commit suicide- I am sure your life is not as bad as some peoples - I mean from what I read, all it seems is that you want to lose some weight and because the pounds are not falling off you are unhappy. This is a stupid reason to feel depressed...Now I am not going to preach to you about third world countries and how they are suffering more than you because I have been there and when someone says that to me, it only makes me feel angry. I know you will only turn around and say "But thats not me, I am living my life and theirs doesnt affect how happy or sad I am..." etc.. but what I will say is this - just try

You are perhaps confusing your MIND, since it realizes that you are "starving" yourself, and to facilitate the process it is suggesting a more rapid means of death?



Losing weight is not about starvation, at least voluntarily... it is about reducing those things that tend to be broken down into sugars such as starches and of course all things sweet. To lose weight means to lose the habit of eating that which is beyond ones body to use. Smaller meals and as I said, let off the sweets.



As for suicide, if you are at all aware of Karma, then you know that there is no such thing as death, merely a transition from one form to another... and if one is not happy with being human, then there are lots of other forms one can incarnate as.....



The "cost" of suicide is really very high, and not something anyone would chose.... if one has the choice. Wishing one was dead.... due to many different circumstances one can be required to endure.... is very different than a relentless fear that who ones MIND fears that one is, might be exposed.



Always keep in mind that what one is going through that is not nice, or desirable is due to ones Karma. That is, due one for ones previous actions, usually in previous lives. Since one is unaware as to the "cause" for what one is experiencing, one tends to "think" that what is happening is unfair, unjust, cruel, etc. While in point of fact it is precisely what another or others had to endure at your hands.



Develop a better ability to endure, and accept. You do not have to "like" what you must experience, but you must realize that it is "due" you. Unless you have a problem with doing nice things for yourself, then when times get distressing and difficult to take.... take a break from the normal and go and do something nice for yourself. Enjoy what you do as much as you can. Really get into the emotion of it, and let it take your thoughts entirely for awhile.



Depression is a conflict between either too much rage, or too much grief. Neither should be "too" much for you. Work on extending your capacity to experience rage [not that you need to act it out] but that you can acknowledge it active within you... and it is OK. Same with grief.



Peace

You need to talk with someone immediately. Call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-TALK.



Please, call them now.

No one goes to heaven by committing suicide. You need to talk to God. You definitely don't want to suffer in this life and the one after. Find someone to talk to that cares, even if it is a stranger.
