There is very instructive incident involving the life of Alexander, the great Greek king. Alexander, after conquering many kingdoms, was returning home. On the way, he fell ill and it took him to his death bed. With death staring him in his face, Alexander realized how his conquests, his great army, his sharp sword and all his wealth were of no consequence. He now longed to reach home to see his mother's face and bid her his last adieu. But, he had to accept the fact that his sinking health would not permit Him to reach his distant homeland. So, the mighty conqueror lay prostrate and pale, helplessly waiting to breathe his last. He called his generals and said, "I will depart from this world soon, I have three wishes, please carry them out without fail." With tears flowing down
Their cheeks, the generals agreed to abide by their king's last wishes.

"My first desire is that,” said Alexander, "My physicians alone must carry my coffin." After a pause, he continued, "Secondly, I desire that when my coffin is being carried to the grave, the path leading to the graveyard be strewn with gold, silver and precious stones which I have collected in my treasury." The king felt exhausted after saying this. He took a minute's rest and continued. "My third and last wish is that both my hands be kept dangling out of my coffin." The people who had gathered there wondered at the king's strange wishes. But no one dare bring the question to their lips. Alexander's favorite general kissed his hand and pressed them to his heart. "O king, we assure you that your wishes will all be fulfilled. But tell us why do you make such strange wishes?"

At this Alexander took a deep breath and said: "I would like the world to know of the three lessons I have just learnt. I want my physicians to carry my coffin because people should realize that no doctor can really cure any body. They are powerless and cannot save a person from the clutches of death. So let not people take life for granted.

The second wish of strewing gold, silver and other riches on the way to the graveyard is to tell

People that not even a fraction of gold will come with me. I spent all my life earning riches but cannot take anything with me. Let people realize that it is a sheer waste of time to chase wealth.

And about my third wish of having my hands dangling out of the coffin, I wish people to know that I came empty handed into this world and empty handed I go out of this world." With these words, the king closed his eyes. Soon he let death conquer him and breathed his last.

This is the truth of life khali hath aye the hum kahli hath jayege

By nature human is not materiastic..
   It is i think concern of inner nature verses outer nature.
   If mind is more nearer to soul then never a problem..
   you will se many example of this during freedom struggle...
   and if it is attached to external thing dettachment is bit    Difficult..

   As i think...as i right???

Most of the time materialism come from scientfic world...
we can call it as Scientific materialism.
Initailly our need are limited...gradually grows...and at last
we are bound by it.We should cantrol our mind but in such situation mind cantrols us..
we more attached to senses....rather being master of senses....Its natural process...
Ultimate solution is we should more attached in search of soul ..atman..
More attached to our inner nature....
As you said you read gita..you will find Bhaktiyoga..Rajyoga.Dnyanyoga..and karmayoga..
are the ways to live life peacefully.....
Man me kashi man me ganga...
man me snan kare...
man me mala..man me mudra man me dyan kare....
Kahe kabir ....sun bhai sado..bhatkat kaun fire....
            

   What i said everyone knows.....

yeah...meditation not easy job...
it require really constant practice.....
i am trying it from 3 years...
if it is regular....we feel change...if we miss to do...it takes again same time to concentrate....
that could be reason our sages..saints would go hills..himalaya's...ashrams....to have calmness.......
SPIRITUALITY IS MORE DIFICULT THAN SCIENCE....isn't it???
