The best way.

The world is what it is today, with its wars, with its greed, with its hateful people, with its unhappy people, with its unloving people, because most seek not to actually better themselves. They want others to do it. They want politicians to do it. They want Jesus to do it. They want Muhammad to do it. They get into relationships, get married, have kids, so they can do the transformation. What about themselves…?? Everybody keeps pointing fingers to the next person.

Parents are the initiators. They teach their kids with their words. “Son, don’t smoke and drink.” And yet they do it themselves. Kids grow up to be chain smokers and get in trouble because they become drunkards. Or there’s the kid that grows up struggling with weight problems in adulthood, his heart falters because of it, he suffers in and out of the hospital. Why…?? Because his parents didn’t care about health themselves, so with their immoral habits they taught their kid the same. And what about politics and attachment to this garbage…?? The same. Kids grow up arguing and disliking others belonging to another party or with different opinions, because in childhood their parents were really stubborn and mediocre as well.

What I’m saying here is that what really matters in life is not others, but yourself. You help others with your change, not with your words. Wake up. See the reality of it. Don’t keep denying it. If you actually bring change to yourself, you can then really help and heal others. What you think and how you feel doesn’t create reality. Your daily habits do. Saying that you love people is not actual change. Saying that you try to be healthy is not actual change. You either do it or not. Because it is all about self-development. It is all my life is. That is why I ascend. That is why I write the way I write. So, ask yourself about your daily habits. What do you need to change to give better example to your family, kids, spouse, friends, the world??

The Light of One Soul.

Once there was a small boy named Shankar.  He belonged to a poor family.  And one day, he was crossing through the forest carrying some woods, when he saw an old man who was very hungry.  Shankar wanted to give him some food, but he did not have food even for his own; so, sad as he was, he continued on his path.  On his way then, later, he saw a deer who was very thirsty.  He wanted to give him some water, but he did not have water even for himself; so, sad as he was, he went on his way ahead…

Then he saw a man who wanted to make a camp but he did not have woods, so Shankar asked about his problem and then gave some woods to him.  In return, he gave him some food and water.  Now he went back to the old man and gave him some food and gave some water to the deer.  The old man and the deer were very happy.  Shankar then happily went on his way…

One day Shankar fell down the hill!  He was in pain and he couldn’t move; no one was there to help him.  But, the old man who he had helped before saw him, he quickly came and pulled him up the hill.  Shankar had many wounds on his legs.  The deer whom shankar had given water saw his wounds and quickly went to the forest and brought some herbs; it so happened then that after some time his wounds were covered.  All of them were very happy that they were able to help each other…

When we give a good example and help the ones in need, we are truly helping ourselves; not because we expect them to do the same for us, but because we are filling our conscience with truth, we are building a stronger and valuable persona in us, and because we are nourishing our own heart with pure and beautifying love–i.e., a love which brings glow and shine into our lives, and a love which brings bliss into all we do. 

We are all human beings, and as human beings we all have that inner light within us but also we have that terrible darkness; and so, each one of us must find a balance between our divine light and our terrible darkness.  Moments of bliss.  Moments of misery.  We all need to help each other, especially help the weaker and innocent among us, and see that we are truly the same; as we all feel joy and feel pain, as we all desire to feel loved and happy…  No matter how upset, how hurt you are, always remind yourself of this…

Lead.

“The reality is that the only way change comes is when you lead by example.” ~ Anne Wojcicki; American entrepreneur, and chief executive officer businesswoman.

“A person always doing his or her best becomes a natural leader, just by example.” ~ Joe DiMaggio; American Major League Baseball player.


How many people out there say very wise and beautiful things, have vast opinions about everything, and are always judging and criticizing but never actually do the right thing, never follow their words, their opinions, never lead by example…??

These individuals are guided to think and say by their egos and not by their hearts, because when you are guided by your heart you are guided by truth; and when you are guided by truth you always lead by example because you can understand reality in the world as it is–not as your lazy ego says it is, but as it really is.

The fact is that by sheer thinking and nice wording the only thing stimulated is the intellect, the mind and seat of the ego; but, however, in order to change people and the world, in order to change yourself as well, you must lead by example, you must change your own behaviors, you must do and not just talk about it, and, most importantly, you must challenge yourself and your comfortable ego to real change you can see and do every single day.

 

Life itself is action, change, progress, and it carries lessons and strength in its change, in its actions, events, moments.

Now, wise people are the same, because deep within themselves they know they are one with life and not separate from it; therefore, wise people understand that human character, integrity, goodness, strength, and all which brings true happiness and success into their lives is a great change in their own behaviors.

That is what other people around you will see and from what they will learn: your wiser example.

The toxic fool.

“The reality is that the only way change comes is when you lead by example.”  ~ Anne Wojcicky; American biotech analyst, biologist, and businesswoman.


 

Have you noticed that most people are always complaining about something, even though they don’t see themselves as complainers…??  And what about all those individuals always focusing on politics and other people while their own lives are a mess and they feel themselves so self-righteous...??  The mediocrity of society.  This sickness is always ready to ruin more lives.

complaints
People even complain and feel pity about themselves instead of accepting and moving on.

I don’t think anyone of us is immune to it, but specially this is damaging for the weak mind which sees the world separated from itself.  When you see the world apart from yourself, you think in your own illusion that by complaining or lashing out with condemning words you are being helpful, thus you feel like you are doing something.  Obviously, these are rather pathetic fools that fail to see the reality of it all, namely ‘Oneness,’ that you and the world are one, and that only leading by example aids in changing the world.

Arguing and complaining just feeds the ego to bring more negativity into your persona and into your life; this, certainly so, affects the opportunities you have and the people you attract.  Mediocre minds are the highest percentage of the world’s population, and so we must focus our attention on leading by example–it could very well be on the small things, like helping carry groceries or taking care of someone sick.

 

As long as you keep complaining and arguing about the world, the outcomes in your life won’t be fruitful, because by being negative your mind is not accepting but denying, and exactly this corrupts your whole existence, it pollutes your whole existence.
“We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.” ~ Buddha.
