Solving Man's failure from the root (intro)


I
t was all a perfect world! When they were created, they were kept in a garden.  Eden contains all fruits and food they could eat. So the problem of planting and cultivating is reduced. Also, they were naked but did not know. So, they did not need clothes. Adam and Eve were provided with today’s basics amenities, they have them sufficiently; food, shelter and clothing were none of their problems. Security was not necessary; the other animals were friends and not enemies, no other man existed; there was therefore no potential enemy.
There was love, unity, and peace among all the creatures. So the first people on earth had little problems to solve, there were no endemic diseases, no road accidents, no plane crash and unemployment.
The major obligation of man was to tend the garden; to keep it. Everything he would need as food, shelter, medicine and many more were ready made available in the garden.
Suddenly, there was a total change in living. Ways of living turned to the opposite direction. Insecurity sets in their lives, the basic amenities were no longer available, enmity between them and other creatures set in, trust was destroyed, peace and love became a thing of the past. Since that time to this present moment, the problems of man had gone from bad to worse. Endemic diseases such as AIDS, SARS, chronic heart diseases, polio are all characteristics of today’s world. Poverty and hunger, and natural disaster statistics now made themselves important on our media coverage, hatred seethes, and love is nowhere to be found even in a family.
As this present precarious condition persist, man became obsessive solving these problems; always trying to make living easier for himself; trying to go back to the former way of living. This brought about the concept of desire. He now wants things, emotion, and self gratification for himself. In his enigma, he desires answers. He desires power, wealth, peace and influence among many of his kind.
 As a result, if he achieves his desires- his wants, he says “I am successful.” A man is said to be successful if among his people, he has been able to acquire that which they all aim to acquire. Therefore, every man desires and wishes but not all are successful. Every man wants to solve his own mystery, every man wants to make a better living, have his own desires before his exit from the earth as death is inevitable.
In order to prevent a tree from ever growing, its roots need to be eliminated. Attacking man’s problems from the root solves his problems permanently. Heal the source and the stream will be well.
Man did not create himself. He was created by a supernatural being. God made man for a particular purpose. Just like man will manufacture automobiles and issue out manual instructions for its proper functioning, man was made with instructions that he may accomplish the reason for his creation. So God designed man with everything he needs to accomplish his purpose and with a manual of operation.

 Man’s success is related to his purpose on earth and his manual of operation that contains the manuscript for the intent of his creation. If man cannot locate his manual, he cannot function well and success will be far from him, for no amount of improvising of the manual will look like the original manual. Therefore the first step, the fundamental principle for man to achieve his desire is to locate the manual and operate it. All the other laws and grammar on success depends on these basic laws.
