A hungry man cannot be imparted knowledge .He needs food to burn out his fire in his belly first. -Lord Buddha
Imagine a world where nothing is left to imagination,where nothing is left to desires because we all already have what we want seems very much like the description of PARADISE what our teachers taught us in schools,isn’t it ;the only place where sickness,death and pain are forbidden to enter,the place we all dream about inspite of knowing we will perhaps never make it there,but we all hope we do,when old age or solitude is our only companion.But did you ever think what if our PARADISE could be right here,right now with us?
Have you ever asked yourself why have we been not able to achieve what we were capable of? I bombed my mind for some days wondering what could possibly be the greatest cause of our agony,our pain,our dis-satisfied lives?Is it money?Is it power?Is is lust or our own mirage of desires?
In my journey through the meta-physical and physical i realized that all of the above are but small fragments of a greater disease,symptoms of an incurable cancer- Hunger.
If we never needed to feed ourselves,if the evolution of species could continue without consumption of a source of energy ,then we could all have suck up sunlight for breakfast ,lunch and moon light for dinner.It might seem pretty dramatic or a poet’s notion to you,but imagine if there was no hunger we could all done what we wanted insead of having to worry to feed our stomach.
If you have ever been down to third world countries like India,China or to African countries like Sudan,you will not know,you will “see” and feel what hunger is,what it can do to a human being.In absence of hunger we could have what we wanted.Lovers could lie on the beach making love all day and night,men could drink beer all day ,children could play without having to worry ,poets could write epic poems and ballads,no rush no race. There would be no thief as ultimately a thief steals for food.There would be rich and poor,for the mother reason for introduction all economics,of money is related to food and hence hunger.No hunger would devoid us of inventing the concept of money.Of course we would still have some other way of measuring our progress and grow as an advanced civilization should ,but i am pretty sure even a fool can percieve that we would be much more happier as a society.
We have faced many decades of war,all for money,and what do we ultimately do with money -Feed ourselves.We have fought with our brethen in name of God,religion and greed,fed on our dearest and brought shame to ourselves-all in the name of this atomic need,this biological indigence.
If i were to leave you on an island where there is no other food,with just one more man,after 5 days you would lose all your humanity and either eat him up in a vulgar display of cannibalism or be fed upon.What seems such a disgusting idea to you now would no longer be so disgusuting after hunger has driven you “mad”.
“Madness”-a strange word.What is madness i ask?Why can’t a hungry man be imparted knowlege?
Why does hunger drive us mad?Why nothing beautiful seems so beautiful to us anymore if there is a fire in our belly.Why would a hungry man be ready to even kill for food?
If you have never wondered about these things before think,could there be a greater disease,a greater epidemic than hunger for us.
We have suffered,fought and walked for long,more than two thousand years.We have moved from jungles to concrete jungles ,moved mountains,reached the moon and beyond,but this primitive force still limits us-the day we conquer our hunger,that will the day of true rejoice for mankind,our greatest conquest.
Nirvana - The search within ! 
Jalright “hunger” can drives a man to be mad, so as to animals in the jungle
why there are hunger in this world? It’s not bec of lack or drain of “money” but its bec of lacking in “equal and fair chances and opportunity”
alot of stupid-fool-naive-apathetic ppl thinks that equal money sys is the answer to this epidemic they are absolutely wrong n plays blind to see the real root of this disease!
Money is not everything and it cn’t ressolve all.
Whilst other hunger was resulted as their personal choice, try to look at those who are lazy-idle-sit’s in one’s butt waiting for someone to scoop the food into their mouth, n aid from the gov’t
other choose not to fill their stomach starve theirselves to comply with their beliefs or to their diets.
Even the well-develop countries,they are not spare from this prob. It’s not bec of lack of equal money but its simply bec of personal choice n lack of equal n fair chance n opportunity 🙂

Very right bebe,equal money distribution would not lead to a happy place i understand,but what do you think is one of the prime cause of a lot of evil we end up doing…killing,extortion…if there was no money system at all would it not have been nice.About animals,they kill only when they are hungry,they never kill and cause pain to others to have fun.We humans are only creatures who do so.They kill only to satisfy their “hunger”.While our hunger started with food,it has crossed its boundry and converted into hunger for lust,money,power..and so many other things.Some times i wonder if we have really evolved into “social” beings at all.
