Introduction:
Logic ensures objective evaluation of facts, events and help us make most rational decisions. As emotional beings, in most of our day to day living our reactions are instinctive driven by emotions.
Body:
Being logical helps in following ways
- Evaluating failures and help in taking appropriate steps to succeed.
- Overcome emotional setbacks be it loss of dear one’s, failures or rejections.
- Reforming society making it a better place to live. Ex: socio-religious movements directed against practices like sati, dowry
However, our logic tells emotions are just part of us; life is temporary, has no inherent existential meaning and death is inevitable. Buddha said ‘’attachment is the root cause of suffering’’. All of these are absolutely right but may lead one to the feeling of emptiness.
On the other hand Joy, love, excitement make us feel alive. These emotions keep life interesting. Be it constructive or destructive emotions, we learn from experiences and grow as an individual.
- Even if life has no meaning, we can give it a one. Be it in the form of personal achievement (Hima das ,Mary kom) or in the service of others(Swami Vivekananda, Gandhiji).
- Emotional security(family) in times of failures eases one’s life.
Conclusion:
Life is an intricate complex layer of experiences. We cannot sail through this ocean being logical alone.
