Selfishness is one of the worst fillings of human nature. Different fillings in human mind originate from either love or greed. Selfishness generally grows for one to love, lack of broad outlook and influence of greed. Man is, as we see, a social being and essentially stands in need of a society which renders him help, guidance and encouragement and he in his tern offers sympathy, sacrifice and help to it- without which the society cannot exist. Except the saint and savage everybody is linked up with a society. It is the social origination which satisfies the needs of different classes of people who are tied with it. History reveals that the growth and progress of an idle society is not possible if there prevails selfishness amongst its members. It is also observed that the more selfless the citizens are, the more advanced the nation is, and more prosperous is the country.
If we look towards Nature, we find that there is no place of selfishness in it. The cow gives milk, the tree bears fruit and casts shadow, the flower bloom, the sun shines, the wind blows not for themselves but entirely for the benefits of others. The countless manifestations of God bear witness that there is no place of selfishness even in mute Nature. Every minute atom though working in its own sphere, yet co-operating with the rest would for the fulfillment of the Universal plan.
