Paise ke Peeche Insaan ki Daud

ER AHMAD JUNAID

Aaj ke daur mein insaan ki zindagi ka sabse bada maqsad paise kamaana ban gaya hai. Har subah uthkar log isi soch mein lag jaate hain ke aaj ka din kaise guzarna hai aur kaise zyada se zyada paisa kamaya jaaye. Pehle zamane mein log sukoon aur khushi ke liye jeete the, lekin aaj ka insaan sirf paisa kamaane ke liye jee raha hai. Aisa lagta hai jaise paisa hi sab kuch hai — izzat bhi paisa se, pyaar bhi paisa se, aur pehchaan bhi paisa se hi milti hai.

Lekin yeh daud sirf ek illusion hai. Insaan jitna paisa kamaata hai, utni hi uski khwahish badhti jaati hai. Aaj ke time mein kisi ke paas jitna bhi ho, woh kabhi santusht nahi hota. Ek chhota businessman chahta hai ke woh bada businessman bane, bada businessman chahta hai ke woh crore pati bane, aur crore pati chahta hai ke woh duniya ka sabse rich insaan bane. Yehi daud insaan ko andar se kha jaati hai.

Paise ki daud mein insaan ne apne emotions, apna pyaar aur apne rishton ki ahmiyat kho di hai. Ghar ke andar bhi paisa ek reason ban gaya hai ladaiyon aur ego ke liye. Bhai bhai se juda ho jaata hai, maa baap apne bachchon se udaas rehte hain, aur doston ke beech bhi competition paida ho jaata hai. Insaan ne paise ko itna important bana diya hai ke woh khushi, sukoon, aur insaniyat jaise jazbaat ko peeche chhod chuka hai.

Paise ki daud ne insaan se uska chain aur neend bhi cheen liya hai. Subah se shaam tak log job, business, aur hustle mein lage rehte hain. Itna stress hota hai ke dil aur dimaag dono thak jaate hain, lekin fir bhi dil ke andar ek awaaz kehti hai — “aur chahiye, abhi kaafi nahi.” Yeh greed insaan ko kabhi sukoon nahi lene deti. Har waqt uske andar ek khauf hota hai ke agar paisa chala gaya to kya hoga.

Insaan bhool gaya hai ke paisa zindagi ko aasaan bana sakta hai, lekin zindagi nahi de sakta. Paisa kharid sakta hai sukh suvidhaayein, lekin asli sukoon nahi. Paisa ek makaan kharid sakta hai, lekin ghar ka sukoon nahi. Paisa kharid sakta hai dosti, lekin wafadari nahi. Paisa mil sakta hai, lekin izzat aur pyaar milna mushkil hota hai agar insaan ke andar insaniyat na ho.

Aaj ke time mein education bhi paisa kamaane ka zariya ban chuki hai. Bachchon ko padhaaya jaata hai sirf isliye ke kal ko wo ek achi job lein aur zyada paisa kamaa sakein. Lekin koi yeh nahi sochta ke kya woh bachcha sach mein khush rahega? Kya uske andar humanity aur honesty bhi rahegi? Har cheez paisa ke daire mein band ho gayi hai.

Paise ke peeche bhaagte hue insaan apni health bhi kho deta hai. Har din ka stress, overwork, aur competition insaan ko andar se tod deta hai. Doctors aur medicines ke bill bharte hue log samajhte hain ke unhone zindagi jeet li hai, lekin asal mein woh apni sehat aur sukoon dono haar chuke hote hain. Paise ke liye log unethical raaste tak apna lete hain — jhoot, dhoka, corruption, aur crime tak pahunch jaate hain. Aur jab insaan ek baar us daud mein ghus jaata hai, wahan se nikalna mushkil ho jaata hai.

Kayi log kehte hain ke bina paisa zindagi nahi chalti, aur ye baat bilkul sahi bhi hai. Paisa zaroori hai, lekin hadd se zyada paisa kamaane ki lalach hi insaan ko barbadi ki taraf le jaati hai. Har cheez mein balance zaroori hai. Paisa ek zarurat hai, lekin jab ye zarurat junoon ban jaaye, to insaan apna asli maqsad bhool jaata hai.

Yeh daud insaan ke character ko bhi kamzor kar deti hai. Pehle log imaandari aur sachchai ko apna gun samajhte the, lekin aaj log shortcut aur jugad ke raste se paisa kamaane mein fakhar mehsoos karte hain. Yeh society ka wo pehlu hai jahan paisa insaaniyat par bhaari pad gaya hai. Ab log poochte nahi ke insaan kaisa hai, wo poochte hain — “Uske paas kya hai?”

Insaan jab paise ke peeche daudta hai, to uski aankhon se gratitude aur satisfaction chhin jaata hai. Usse apni blessings dikhai nahi deti, usse sirf wo nazar aata hai jo abhi tak uske paas nahi hai. Yeh daud insaan ko andar se khaali kar deti hai.

Ek waqt tha jab log kam paise mein bhi khush rehte the, ek saath khana khaate the, hans-te bolte the. Aaj paisa to zyada hai, lekin dil chhote ho gaye hain. Ameer log bhi depression, anxiety, aur loneliness se pareshaan rehte hain. Yeh sab paise ke peeche lagne ka nateeja hai.

Aakhir mein samajhna hoga ke paise ki daud ek end-less race hai jisme jeetne wala bhi haar jaata hai. Kyunki jab tak zindagi hai, insaan aur chahiye sochta hi rahega. Waqt ke saath paisa to aata jaata rahta hai, lekin jo sukoon aur satisfaction dil se milta hai, woh sirf tab milta hai jab insaan apni life ka balance banaye rakhe.

Humein apne dil ko samjhaana hoga ke paisa ek zarurat hai, lekin zindagi ka maksad nahi. Zindagi ka asli maqsad hai sukoon, pyar, aur insaniyat. Agar hum sirf paisa kamaane ke liye jee rahe hain, to hum asal mein jee hi nahi rahe, bas ek race mein bhaag rahe hain jiska koi anth nahi.

“Paise ke peeche daud kar insaan duniya jeet sakta hai, lekin apni rooh haar jaata hai.”
