Listen to the Creator to avoid a Shock!!

Any new devices come with a user manual. If one tries to independently operate the device without following the instructions set forth by the creator in the user manual; one is sure to experience an electric shock or could malfunction the device itself.
Similar is the case in regards to the world we are living in. The creator of the Universe is the Supreme Lord Sri Hari and his instructions are codes in the Vedas which is a User Manual for us to make use of. Unfortunately; because the so called leaders of our societies and nation have failed to recognize and abide by this; we could see all the efforts go in vain in spite of their strenuous efforts to make the world a happy and a better place.

The Scriptures lay down a condition to the worldly people for peace and happiness. " Karananthu Dhyeya" " The Creator of the universe is the be meditated on".

 The Brahma-samhita confirms who the creator is : isvarah paramah krsnah sac-cid-ananda-vigrahah/anadir adir govindah sarva-karana-karanam. "The Supreme Lord Sri Hari is the cause of all causes"

Srimad Bhagavatham quotes" ete camsa-kalah pumsah krsnas tu bhagavan svayam"

The Katho Upanishad explains " nityo nityanam cetanas cetananam eko bahunam yo vidadhati kaman " 
" He not only creates; but has also been maintaining all the living entities and fulfilling their desires." 

Even in the practical world; we see; law abiding citizens are protected and nourished by government; however; the miscreants who violate the law are punished.
Vishnu Dharmottara quotes" Shruti:smritimamaiva AgyA-yastAm ullanghya vartatE AgyAcchEdI mama drOhI mama bhaktOpi na Vaishnava " The one who does not abide by the laws set forth in the Sruthi and Smriti are great offenders.

In the Bhagavad Gita CHapter 2 Verse 66; Sri Krishna explains the state of those who are not united with him in mediation.

nasti buddhir ayuktasya 
na cayuktasya bhavana 
na cabhavayatah santir 
asantasya kutah sukham

" To the one who is not united with me in meditation; true knowledge of the self does not take place
---> Thus there is no chance of mediation on the self ---> Thus there is no peace of mind for such a person ----> For one who does not have peace of mind; where could there be happiness?
