Productivity
is an art. It is the art of being able to pass beyond the
horizon and know/understand the aim of existence. Millions of
people are longing for this and it is this phenomena which
prevents the appearance of thinkers who only passes over to
others (transfers what he hears or reads). It is possible to
search and find this fact behind every activity that makes
people happy.
The actions
of the people who possess the attribute of being productive do
not accept any limits. As you would appreciate, a creative
brain comes out with very different results. In the social life
the creative person never submits to the influential people and
to those who are the criers for the magazines and fashion. If a
person doesn’t have the yeast for creation in his store of
ideas, then we can’t think that he would be able to reach a fact
like “Re -Birth” and perceive it. Those people who want to find
definite solutions for an event, for a problem have to produce.
Unfortunately, only a certain group of people are trying to form
a global world and keep it alive. The rest are on the way to
wasting their brain which is their heritage for useless things.
Globalisation is a concept which is directly related to
production.
However,
unproductivity looks as if it can prevent and form a resistance
against being global.
In other words, only a very small scale of people are
productive. They make evaluations, they are active all the time
and make advancements,. However, the majority, that is to say
the ones who could not get hold of the development line are
living by the leftovers from the first group. They don’t even
care about this shameful condition. On the one hand they have
lots of expectations and on the other hand nobody among them
thinks about making new advancements, productions and nobody
wants to know/understand himself. He also can’t go to the roots
of this passivity and unproductivity becomes the outcome of
not being able to know oneself.
Why was the improvement of the developed ones delayed?
Why are the
ones who have not improved in this condition? Here, the answers
of all these questions are found in lack of production.
As in every field, production has a great importance in
mysticism. For example, in the Koran – al Karim Allah wants a
dynamic mind that is in a continuous state of thinking and
production instead of a static one (Bakara, 44, 73).
However, the reality is that life has reached a static state and
the lack of production in the thoughts, the ideas has reached
its maximum limits. The social problems, the depressions along
with the rebel of the individual, his confused state of mind,
the lack of adaptability are all a clear proof for this.
In the society, the individuals who cannot conform to the rapid
changes, who cannot produce, who cannot improve themselves are
being dragged into imitative behaviour and disaster. Beneath all
these there lies unproductivity.
The state of being unproductive is one of the most important
factors, maybe the first factor, disrupting the harmony in the
society and a hindrance in the formation of a healthy
society.
Allah’s
representative Hz. Mohammed (s.a.v) says, “Who lives two
identical days days is not from of us”. By saying so he invites
the people to make new challenges. Also the great Islamic
mystic Mawlana shows the way to humanity about being productive
by his words that say “My dear, yesterday has been left in
yesterday (in the past ), today it is necessary to find new
things”.
On the other
hand when the brain cannot work efficiently, in other words its
being close to production drags a person to malnutrition which
may result in having insomnia, headaches, perspiration,
constipation, high blood pressure, even tachycardia and damage
in the valves of the heart.
Besides, it
may cause unwanted mental changes, such as depression and
nervousness.
Today,
production has become a cultural fact, but in the analysis made
for the purpose of criticising if there is a lack of production,
then it is impossible to mention the existence of a fight
for the same subject. It is necessary to make the diagnosis very
well and lance it accordingly…
However,
unfortunately we don’t have such a skill!…
