Οι 10 κανόνες του Γκάντι για να αλλάξουμε τον κόσμο

"5. Take care of this moment."

Yes, and yet keep a very watchful eye on both the past and the future. Living in the moment is often like a gift, much as a walk on the beach, or reading a fascinating book of fiction. If we are open to the miracles present in each moment, amazing possibilities are available. And yet, we are forging a future based on our attention to all three - the past, the present, and the future. Take care of this moment for the future is contained in each and every step, and many clues to a better life beyond mere existence are laid down in both the misery and triumphs of the past. If we aren't "taking care" of our attention on both the past and the future, we close the door to evolving enlightenment. Meditation and awareness on this moment are wonderful and necessary, and yet will never be enough for humanity to rise from the lessons hidden in the past or the limits placed on the present.
Take care of the past, and the present, and walk purposefully into a future that "you", one-by-one person at a time, want to be living, forged with your actions in the present, or you will wake up in a world not of "your" making. You will be living in a future planned and executed by those who did keep a watchful eye on the future by, indeed, taking care of this moment. Someone is and will be taking care of the future. Make it you. Make your present moment count in "your" future. Make it a future that you want to live within. And start working and living toward it now, right now, in the present.
Decide to take care of the past, present, and the future. Don't be blindsided by someone else's dream for the future, and especially when the ideas of some upholds the supposedly superior and entitled, and disrespects and disempowers others, or that is disrespectful of some human beings, all life forms, or that attempts to commodify and profit from the great "gift" of life, that damages and destroys the dignity and intrinsic worth of peoples, cultures, lands, creatures, fish, insects, plants, trees, forests, soils, waters, air, and life itself from our shared planet home.

Wake up yourself instead.
You are the future, living and working in the present, and learning from the past.
Make good use of both the past and the present to create a better future for you and for all than we have in this current moment in time of our human and planetary history.
We are blessed to have this moment to begin building a better world.
Give thanks for your life, and begin building a future that is truthful, just, merciful, and good. A future of truth, goodness, fullness, and abundance for all is begun with my hopes and dreams for the future, attention on the past, And the actions that I choose today.
Make your attention on the past, and your actions in the present count for the future we will all live within.

"Tell me, what is it you plan to do
with your one wild and precious life?"

Create a wild and precious future for yourself and for all?

Don't back down from your future.
Rise. Embrace today, and live for the future.
It is your future, and you will be living it.
Make it a worthwhile and beautiful life for you and for all to live.
Begin now.
Keep your eye on the prize - life and love today, and for the future.
They are precious and priceless.
They are wild and free.
Don't lose sight of them.
Keep them vigilantly ever before you;
they will sustain you on your journey, and reveal both mystery and beauty.
They will lead and bring you home.
Life and love know the way.
Set them free to run, and follow.
Begin now in the present, planning a future
that arises, that shines as crystal, like diamond dewdust in sunlight for all to see,
hidden in whispered longings,
buried in the treasured and hard-earned lessons of the past,
present in the truly revelatory learning
and trail-blazing work of today,
that upholds unwaveringly
truth, justice, and mercy for all human beings and all of creation,
that is in love with the priceless
and abundant gift of life,
that refuses "the dying of the light",
rather rallies, to carry the light on high for all the world to see.
Be that light,
and the future is yours,
a wild and precious miracle of your making
to delight, embrace, treasure, and share with all.

Just so you know...
Everyone
You and I look up to, and think "Wow... they've got it together" or
"dang... they have it made" - are no different than you and I. Each one
of us has this amazing privilege of living "Our Lives" and "Our
Callings" out during this short thing we call life.

Running
LGH over the years my wife Morgan and I have had the amazing gift of
meeting some of the people we've looked up to (and I would imagine many
of you do as well!) for years (from Musicians, to Artists, Actors, to
even Oprah) I've learned that although most of them are amazing
individuals, they are no different than you and I - so I battle daily to
make sure envy doesn't creep in and steal my passions and callings! May
it remind you to do the same!

Let us be people who don't allow envy to creep in and destroy the beautiful, amazing gifts we all have today!

Gandhi's 10 Rules for Changing the World
•• Gandhi: 1. Change yourself: "You must be the change you want to see in the world. As human beings, our greatness lies not so much in being able to remake the world – that is the myth of the atomic age – as in being able to remake ourselves."
*BeiYin: 'Change yourself' is an advice that goes against the 'law of nature' in that every thing once established, tries to keep it's state. That this is also the case with human beings, we can observe all around and within ourselves. Every body holds on ones 'properties' and does every thing to get more if it, to be sure that it stays like it is. Why? Because humans are *identified* with what they 'own' and so they are getting their feeling of 'existence' out of it!
• So the advice 'change yourself' will only be used to get more of the already gathered and if possible in more advanced and sophisticated aspects, whatever this might be...
• We can't and we don't need to 'remake ourselves'! No manipulation is required on no level of our existence! Not with our body, our mind, our emotions and not at the outside world! We only need to become *aware* of our state of *being* within that we are in this moment and then *relate* and *respond* the best we are capable, knowing that we are limited in our knowledge, due to our still erroneous state of being!
•• Gandhi: 2. You are in control. “Nobody can hurt me without my permission.”
*BeiYin: That's what every body wants: 'To be in control'! To be able to protect oneself against every thing that might 'hurt' oneself in ones established existence! How one feels and how one reacts depends on ones established mindset and only of a small part one is conscious about. The subconscious part, about that one is absolutely NOT aware, causes one to react on every thing that shows up in ones daily life and so there is no control possible, only manipulation at the outside!
• That makes it clear, that we are all stuck within a straitjacket of our established mindset, even though we have the self image that we are 'free' and able to 'control' our life!
• We are living out of concepts, goals and values, that are the result of centuries of misinterpretation and manipulation. We are defending our erroneous properties, with that we are so strongly identified and we have a big arsenal of defense tricks, to hold on what we believe we are! We always give the reason for every thing, that might hurt us in our property, to the outside and others and so keeping ourselves as much untouched as possible.
•• Gandhi: 3. Forgive and let it go. “The weak can never forgive. - Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong. An eye for eye only ends up making the whole world blind.”
*BeiYin: One can find for every thing a manipulation trick. You can see yourself as 'strong' and play this 'role', what includes that you can 'forgive' when you are hurt. With this tactic avoiding to look at yourself, realizing that you got hurt because you are conditioned and so dependent and weak. If you would *grow* through being *aware* of your conditioning by being able to use the encounter with others and your surrounding, then you would be thankful that they have caused your 'reactions' and so you would 'forgive' as part of your *understanding*, about yourself and the 'other'...
•• Gandhi: 4. Without action you aren't going anywhere. “An ounce of practice is worth more than tons of preaching.”
*BeiYin: An 'action' might be the result of a 'reaction' caused as an unconscious response, that then might cause an unwanted result that keeps one occupied and within the 'game'!
• Or ones 'action' is the result, when relating to a situation or condition, not necessarily reacting to spectacular aspects, but looking behind the appearance and then out of being responsible, acting in the best way one is capable. Knowing that the happening is a *challenge* as part of ones *growing*.
•• Gandhi: 5. Take care of this moment. “I do not want to foresee the future. I am concerned with taking care of the present. God has given me no control over the moment following.”
*BeiYin: 'The moment following' is the result of ones response to the moment right NOW. Then one can *relate* to this new moment and respond. When one reacts out of ones unconscious background, then the next 'moment' can serve oneself even stronger, as one might be pushed with ones nose into ones own misery! - Your 'God' will probably just laugh about your silliness...
•• Gandhi: 6. Everyone is human. “I claim to be a simple individual liable to err like any other fellow mortal. I own, however, that I have humility enough to confess my errors and to retrace my steps. It is unwise to be too sure of ones own wisdom. It is healthy to be reminded that the strongest might weaken and the wisest might err.”
*BeiYin: The characteristic of 'humans' is, that they put labels on every thing and then believe that they know what it is all about. Then they can classify all their property and store it in their mindset. Getting their sense and feeling of EXISTENCE out of it! Not needing and avoiding, to realize that all is based on erroneous interpretation and manipulation since beginning of 'humankind'! They see themselves as 'advanced' beings, when they admit that they might commit 'errors', not being able to realize, that they are living in a self created fake reality!
•• Gandhi: 7. Persist. “First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.”
*BeiYin: Using this advice you can justify to hold on your established identification game and go on finding confirmation from the outside world and others.
•• Gandhi: 8. See the good in people and help them. “I look only to the good qualities of men. Not being faultless myself, I won't presume to probe into the faults of others. Man becomes great exactly in the degree in which he works for the welfare of his fellow-men. I suppose leadership at one time meant muscles; but today it means getting along with people.”
*BeiYin: 'Leadership today' means telling people what they want to hear and so 'getting along' with them, using this to manipulate people for their own benefit! -
To look 'only at the good qualities of men' is just too silly. - Ones 'observation' must include ones own condition! One need to be *aware* of all conditions to be able to respond in an effective and creative way, outside and within oneself! And only when one is *aware* of ones *whole being* then one can see the outside and others in an *objective* way!
•• Gandhi: 9. Be congruent, be authentic, be your true self. “Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony. Always aim at complete harmony of thought and word and deed. Always aim at purifying your thoughts and everything will be well.”
*BeiYin: These 'rules' were written more than seventy years ago! Now it becomes clear from where all those beautiful advanced 'quotes' with all those spiritual advises are coming from! And still without any information!
How possibly one can 'be authentic' and 'be ones true self'??? This advice only creates an even more sophisticated fake self image with that people can identify themselves and be busy trying to find confirmation for it when joining other 'like minded' and 'kindred spirits'!
Shouldn't it clear by now, that this is a survival game, keeping oneself going within ones fake reality?
So people can avoid to confront *reality* in their daily life and having the perfect survival trick always and every where at hand!
•• Gandhi: 10. Continue to grow and evolve. ”Constant development is the law of life, and a man who always tries to maintain his dogmas in order to appear consistent drives himself into a false position.”
*BeiYin: It doesn't need the advice to 'grow' and to 'keep growing'! What would help is the information and the understanding of it, that all *alive beings* are *growing*! And this for sure doesn't depend if you want this or NOT! One can observe the *growing* all around! In humans this is not so obvious, as they seem to be stuck in their present state of being. But also a beetle seems to be stuck when in the state of a cocoon, it is just a phase of transformation and then the moment will come, when the pressure from inside rises so much, breaking the stuck form and so the 'butterfly' can fly...
So better we *trust* our inbuilt *growing* force and then don't need to struggle to free ourselves so much!
We can also *trust* that the growing force is present every where in ones life and presents in any moment the opportunity to use every thing in ones daily life to *grow*! We should also 'know', that from our human side, there is resistance and we make ourselves blind by ignoring and rejecting what we don't 'like', because it doesn't confirm us in our established 'self image'.
So there should show up some essential and creative questions! The fact that there are hardly any doubts and so no questions, tells that one is not yet *ready* and must continue dreaming and struggling within ones 'cocoon' of illusions and ones 'self image'...
Or do you have an urgent, personal question? Then ask!

Gandhi's "10 Rules for Changing the World" and my comments on these...

yourself: "You must be the change you want to see in the world. As human
