Whats Up(app) - Whats Down

According to official Whatsapp 2020 statistics there are around 2 billion users. On an average 29 Million messages per minute. India leading with over 340million Whatsapp users. 2hrs 24 min. is an average time spent on social media. The impact is such that users give up their real world interest and their entire emotional quotient is restricted to the app.

The app has convincingly brought those at a distance closer, while those near are getting distant. It also seems an easy medium to move falsehood & hatred by some, this brings the app credits of bad marks. The usage being good, bad or worse depends upon the users mind. It is the mind which has taken undue liberties hence, now over several generations you may agree the presence of low morality. Values are compromised largely in our social, business and cultural institutions. Our daily breakfast is a sumptuous spread of disheartening news with corruption, failures, murders ,rape. We are vociferous & take pride in maligning people & institutions to settle personal scores. Our political dilemma is where there are two Indians we have three political parties. The I, Me, Mine is having difficulty to replace it with WE. Divorce cases are on rise, homes for the aged are increasing, what's breaking the family institution. The Mind is going astray influenced by the vices. If only our connectivity with the lord was disciplined people will know HIS will & our society would not experience what it is undergoing. I keep reminding myself the Human form I am in, is a gift of the creator. I could have been an animal, insect tree, bird, etc. from among the 8.4million species the creator could choose from. The mind needs its corrections to know what deeds bring HIS grace & you can then Live in Peace & RIP.

Gurbani on pg1105 says “The lustful, the angry, the clever, the deceitful & the lazy waste their lives in slander & never remember their Lord in meditation. Lets conquer our Mind and help others with it and be responsible.
