The address of immortality

Every human being seeks immortality. But literally it is impossible because man is mortal. Birth is not truth, but death is an absolute truth. So the question of immortality spins round the orbit of confusion and contradiction. The address of immortality is unknown to all of us. None wants to depart this beautiful world because of long earthly attachments developed during our life span little by little. We become so addicted to this attachments and the bonding of these is really hard to tear out. A little child does never want to be disassociated with his broken playthings, though being assured of new and attractive toys as a way of replacement. The reason is easily understandable. It is nothing but the attraction of long attachment. Replacement of everything in a life is a utopian concept. Just as this, no man wants to die with a venture to a journey to the world of eternal peace or rest. From the living world to the dead world, it is a one way journey. So we can imagine the beauty of the dead world with our imaginative skill, but none of us can explain it physically. For it as well we all long for immortality though we all acknowledge that we are all mortal.
But contradiction and debate focus somewhere else. What is the use of living long as an inert object? Can it ever be defined on the ground of utility? What is the identity of that life what fails to interpret the real values of life? These are all obviously not impertinent or baseless queries. These are all reason binding. Mere long lives can never the be all and end all of life. So it is no issue how long we are alive. It is the top priority issue how long we will remain alive even after our death and what is the basic recipe of doing such.
When we are in quest of the address of immortality we should always remember that we are supposed to leave an indelible scar in the world out of our good deeds. How can we justify good deeds? What is the parameter of good deeds? How can we remain alive generation after generation with no fade out glory? Immortality is not a commodity that can be purchased on demand. Outstanding  contribution of any individual for the well being the common people or notable contribution in different wings of life, culture or nothing in specific but in good sense turns him immortal even long after his death. His presence is well felt when we move along the track of his contributory field. Those immortal personalities are considered as the pathfinders. They have translated their dreams of concept and ideas into reality with ardent desire and rock-solid determination. When they work for the missionary target with visionary look they hardly conceptualize the sense and value of immorality. But they can hardly understand when their notable contribution brings them close to the immortality.
So the address of immortality can be known easily if one tries hard to leave an indelible impression with never-to-overrule contribution in the bed of the society. To work relentlessly for the well being of all is the only formula to be immortal. Anyone can survive long even after his death by dint of his noble deeds in serial. To achieve immortality is a long journey with no specific destination as such.
