The Mysterious Disappearance: Malaysian Boeing 777

It was deeply saddening  and painful to hear that Boeing MH 370 with 239 passenger on board disappeared in the vast space without much clue after its takeover from airport on 8th March 2014. The bombardment of hot news hit every media channels of its mysterious lost from radar still not solved with twenty-six Nations search teams consist of scientific advanced tools and satellite networks, brushing the Oceans for debris and black-box recovery. Who is the main deadly killer is unclear and blame game is now the last option for the cause of fatal accident of the Boeing 777 airplane taking away 239 lives leaving faint hopes of survival and safe landing of airplane in any Country if hijacked.

 Oh! The dirty hands of Pilots, the Terrorists,  Girl friends, Crew members, Passengers, Politicians, Ground staff and airliners' Competitors  must have done the criminal acts of diverting the plane from charted routes to crash intentionally are the points to blame after the damaged is already done. We are crying over the spilled milk.This is another failure of Science & Technology which we all rely on so grossly to make our life comfortable and easy. Many lives are lost due to failure of science and Technology in the world with an accidents and mechanical failures added by human intentions.  Even the small mobiles can kill the human beings if our life force is finished and such huge planes are deadly killers too. The sinking of huge cruise ship Titanic too killed many lives on board. Therefore, the truth of our life is so fragile and destroy-able by any ill forces.  

The lord Buddha said that" Human life is like a candle light placed on the windy and stormy area." which can be put off at any time by the forces of wind and storm resembling of very low survival chances. The good forces of living is very little as compared to the deadly killers surrounding us to end our life force like the candle in the air. Our own property, wealth, cars, planes and ships will turn into deadly killer one day by hiring the hands of Lord Yama. There are tens and thousands of ways that we all human beings may die suddenly without any notifications received from the Lord Yama and leave our parents, relatives, friends, sons and daughters with heavy heart. This is the truth; we all should learn to accept it with gracefully and happily instead of clinging to have answers and solutions. After all, we all are not going to live forever on this earth. 

Let us live happily instead of running into disturbed emotions and turbulence for the lost lives. The very moment we are born, we are bound to die.  The schedule is different to all of us. That the is the truth; accept it and learn to live happily in turbulent times. I know it is not that easily said and done but we should think in positive way of life and uncertainty is the truth. Rejoice the the candle light for few years with its limited good attributes. The wind  of death will blow from any directions even to us which had happened to our loved ones. Be prepared for the worse and rejoice the current moment with available resources that we have. Never try to built the house in the sky; that is impossible and unrealistic dream that we all dream as a business minded people.

The only last contribution that we all can make to our lost lives are dedicating our sincere prayers and merits for their swift rebirth into Pure Land of Buddhas and Bodhisattva. Deeply pray and hope to meet in the next life as same family  members in the next generations. I have my layperson's simple and humble prayers to those who lost their lives due to any causes that we are looking for to reach Zangdoperi and join the entourage of Guru Rinpoche. Life is full of mysteries;  this is another mystery that human beings are facing in this modern age with frustrations. I also share the burden and sadness that faced by the family members round the world. May you all live long and happy life. May your misery and sadness be reduced.
