Yousuf Raza – How to find fulfilment in life

But we also do a lot of things

to achieve a sense of fulfillment.

For this, people do a lot of things.

They go on a tour of a country

or go skydiving.

People do a lot of different things just

to get some kind of sense of fulfillment.

A lot of people want a new and

big house.

They want a nice car and stuff like

that.

Just to have that feeling.

So my question is, while living in this

world, can we achieve that level of fulfillment?

See, if fulfillment becomes our goal, that we

achieve a state of complete satisfaction and peace,

then what?

Then what will happen?

Let me give you a scenario.

There is somebody who is suffering.

On the road, in the hospital, anywhere.

And that suffering person needs help.

Okay.

And for that help, two people look at

him and say, this person is in need.

This person requires help.

Okay.

One of the people who sees him, that

person is also restless.

Okay.

He has a pain inside.

I'm not satisfied.

I need to do something.

I need to get out of this state

that I'm in.

I need to...

He is restless.

He needs to do something.

He needs to achieve something.

The other person is in peace.

Relaxed, chill.

Which of them is more likely to help

the person in need?

Yeah, I think the one who is already

suffering will tend to help the other one.

Yeah.

He knows, yeah.

He has the...

He knows how it feels.

He knows how it feels.

He has something to, you know, look forward

to give.

Okay.

Versus someone who is absolutely fulfilled.

That's sort of a retirement plan.

It's...

I don't know.

Some sort of a vacation resort.

It looks good in their advertisements.

According to Allama, According to Allama, And

in this, okay.

We want...

We alternate between...

See, a healthy life, right?

A healthy, mentally active life.

We need to alternate these two states.

Restlessness to do something.

To get somewhere.

And then satisfaction with achievements.

With a relaxation.

Some break.

Some, of course, happiness.

We need both of them to be alternate.

If one of the two becomes absolute, then

our functionality compromises.

What we can do for the community will

compromise it.

See, there is so much potential in the

human being.

Some of which cannot come out.

If there is no experience of something.

You pick up history and see.

The people who have done any significant work

for humanity.

They are people who have suffered.

Yes.

Right?

They didn't do anything.

They kept chilling.

And everything was easy for them.

And they were sitting comfortably.

And no one ever pinched them.

You don't find them as having contributed.
