Happiness Only in the Hereafter

The Creator has created the present world only for action. Happiness and comfort are only for God-fearing men and women, in the Hereafter.

Charlie Chaplin the famous British film star (1889-1977) was a comedian, who used to make people laugh with his antics. But Charlie Chaplin himself was unhappy on the inside. Despite all the material objects and comforts he possessed, he did not find happiness in his life.

It is said that once a man visited a psychiatrist and said to him, “I am very depressed. Can you advise me as to how I can be happy?” The doctor advised his patient to go and see Charlie Chapline’s movies. The visitor said that he himself was Charlie Chaplin. “I make others laugh, but inside my heart is crying.”

Charlie Chaplin was a comedian, but by the time he was 88 and death was near, he had become a tragic figure. The man who had made others laugh, once commented on his own condition: “I always like walking in the rain so that no one can see me crying.”

This is the story of every man and woman in this world. People are stimulated to laugh, but they do not get any pleasure from inside. People tell stories of their success, but on the inside they are of a defeatist bent of mind.

The fact is that there is no happiness reserved for anyone in the present world. The Creator has created the present world only for action. Happiness and comfort are only and only in the Hereafter for God-fearing men and women.
