The irony of human life is that we are given to seek but the true answers and solutions come only as we evolve. We can never be satisfied if we remain forever humans. As Narad speaks in Savitri, the Spirit is doomed to pain till man is free. If we chose to remain human forever, if we refuse to aspire and evolve then we have to be satisfied with the imperfections of life.
