"Hindi ka dapat mawalan ng tiwala sa sangkatauhan. Ang sangkatauhan ay karagatan; kung ang ilang patak ng karagatan ay marumi, ang karagatan ay hindi magiging marumi."
"Ang pagkakaiba sa pagitan ng kung ano ang ginagawa natin at kung ano ang kaya nating gawin ay sapat na upang malutas ang karamihan sa mga problema ng mundo."
"Kung wala akong sense of humor, matagal na akong nagpakamatay."
Hindi na kailangan ng mahabang pagpapakilala ni Mahatma Gandhi. Alam ng lahat ang tungkol sa taong nanguna sa mga Indian sa kalayaan mula sa pamamahala ng Britanya noong 1947.
Kaya't magpatuloy tayo sa ilan sa aking mga paboritong tip mula kay Mahatma Gandhi.
1. Baguhin ang iyong sarili.
"Ikaw dapat ang pagbabagong gusto mong makita sa mundo."
"Bilang mga tao, ang ating kadakilaan ay hindi nakasalalay sa kakayahang gawing muli ang mundo - iyon ang mito ng panahon ng atomic - kundi sa kakayahang muling gawin ang ating sarili."
Kung babaguhin mo ang iyong sarili mababago mo ang iyong mundo. Kung babaguhin mo ang iyong iniisip, babaguhin mo ang iyong nararamdaman at kung anong mga aksyon ang iyong gagawin. At kaya ang mundo sa paligid mo ay magbabago. Hindi lang dahil tinitingnan mo na ngayon ang iyong kapaligiran sa pamamagitan ng mga bagong lente ng pag-iisip at emosyon kundi dahil din sa pagbabago sa loob ay maaaring magbigay-daan sa iyong kumilos sa mga paraan na hindi mo naisip - o marahil ay naisip pa rin - habang nananatili sa iyong lumang mga pattern ng pag-iisip.
At ang problema sa pagbabago ng iyong panlabas na mundo nang hindi binabago ang iyong sarili ay magiging ikaw pa rin kapag naabot mo ang pagbabagong iyong pinagsikapan. Magkakaroon ka pa rin ng iyong mga kapintasan, galit, negatibiti, mga tendensiyang sumasabotahe sa sarili atbp.
At kaya sa bagong sitwasyong ito ay hindi mo pa rin mahahanap ang iyong inaasahan dahil ang iyong isip ay patuloy na tumatagos sa mga negatibong bagay na iyon. At kung makakakuha ka ng higit pa nang hindi nagkakaroon ng ilang pananaw sa at distansya mula sa iyong ego maaari itong maging mas malakas. Dahil ang iyong kaakuhan ay gustong hatiin ang mga bagay-bagay, upang maghanap ng mga kaaway at lumikha ng paghihiwalay ay maaaring magsimulang subukang lumikha ng higit pang mga problema at salungatan sa iyong buhay at mundo.
2. Ikaw ang may kontrol.
"Walang makakasakit sa akin nang walang pahintulot ko."
Ang iyong nararamdaman at kung ano ang iyong reaksyon sa isang bagay ay palaging nasa iyo. Maaaring mayroong isang "normal" o isang karaniwang paraan upang tumugon sa iba't ibang mga bagay. Ngunit halos iyon lang ang lahat.
Maaari mong piliin ang iyong sariling mga saloobin, reaksyon at emosyon sa halos lahat ng bagay. Hindi mo kailangang matakot, mag-overreact kahit na mag-react sa negatibong paraan. Marahil hindi sa lahat ng oras o kaagad. Minsan ang isang tuhod-jerk na reaksyon ay lumalabas. O isang lumang gawi sa pag-iisip ay nagsisimula.
At habang napagtanto mo na walang sinuman sa labas ng iyong sarili ang maaaring aktwal na makontrol kung ano ang nararamdaman mo maaari mong simulan na isama ang pag-iisip na ito sa iyong pang-araw-araw na buhay at bumuo nito bilang isang ugali sa pag-iisip. Isang ugali na maaari kang lumakas at lumakas sa paglipas ng panahon. Ang paggawa nito ay ginagawang mas madali at mas kasiya-siya ang buhay.
3. Magpatawad at hayaan mo na.
"Ang mahina ay hindi kailanman makapagpatawad. Ang pagpapatawad ay katangian ng malakas."
"Ang isang mata sa mata ay nagiging bulag lamang sa buong mundo."
Ang pakikipaglaban sa kasamaan sa kasamaan ay hindi makakatulong sa sinuman. At gaya ng sinabi sa naunang tip, palagi mong pinipili kung paano mag-react sa isang bagay. Kapag maaari mong isama ang gayong ugali ng pag-iisip nang higit pa at higit pa sa iyong buhay pagkatapos ay maaari kang tumugon sa paraang mas kapaki-pakinabang sa iyo at sa iba.
Napagtanto mo na ang pagpapatawad at pagpapabaya sa nakaraan ay magdudulot sa iyo at sa mga tao sa iyong mundo ng isang mahusay na serbisyo. At ang paggugol ng iyong oras sa ilang negatibong alaala ay hindi makakatulong sa iyo pagkatapos mong matutunan ang mga aral na matututuhan mo mula sa karanasang iyon. Malamang na mas lalo kang magdurusa at maparalisa ang iyong sarili sa pagkilos sa kasalukuyang sandali.
Kung hindi ka magpatawad, hahayaan mo ang nakaraan at ibang tao na kontrolin ang nararamdaman mo. Sa pamamagitan ng pagpapatawad ay pinapalaya mo ang iyong sarili mula sa mga gapos na iyon. At pagkatapos ay maaari kang tumutok nang lubusan sa, halimbawa, sa susunod na punto.
4. Kung walang aksyon hindi ka pupunta kahit saan.
"Ang isang onsa ng pagsasanay ay mas mahalaga kaysa sa tonelada ng pangangaral."
Kung walang pagkilos, kakaunti ang gagawin. Gayunpaman, ang paggawa ng aksyon ay maaaring maging mahirap at mahirap. Maaaring magkaroon ng maraming panloob na pagtutol.
At kaya maaari kang gumamit sa pangangaral, gaya ng sabi ni Gandhi. O walang katapusang pagbabasa at pag-aaral. At pakiramdam mo ay sumusulong ka. Ngunit nakakakuha ng kaunti o walang praktikal na mga resulta sa totoong buhay.
Kaya, upang talagang makarating sa kung saan mo gustong pumunta at upang talagang maunawaan ang iyong sarili at ang iyong mundo kailangan mong magsanay. Ang mga aklat ay kadalasang makapagbibigay lamang sa iyo ng kaalaman. Kailangan mong kumilos at isalin ang kaalamang iyon sa mga resulta at pag-unawa.
Maaari mong tingnan ang ilang mabisang tip para malampasan ang problemang ito sa How to Take More Action: 9 Powerful Tips . O maaari kang magpatuloy sa susunod na punto para sa higit pa sa pinakamahusay na tip para sa paggawa ng higit pang aksyon na natagpuan ko sa ngayon.
5. Ingatan ang sandaling ito.
"Ayokong makita ang hinaharap. Nag-aalala ako sa pangangalaga sa kasalukuyan. Hindi ako binigyan ng Diyos ng kontrol sa susunod na sandali."
Ang pinakamahusay na paraan na nahanap ko upang madaig ang panloob na pagtutol na kadalasang pumipigil sa atin sa pagkilos ay ang manatili sa kasalukuyan hangga't maaari at ang pagtanggap.
Bakit? Buweno, kapag ikaw ay nasa kasalukuyang sandali, hindi ka nag-aalala tungkol sa susunod na sandali na hindi mo pa rin makontrol. At ang paglaban sa pagkilos na nagmumula sa iyong pag-iisip ng mga negatibong kahihinatnan sa hinaharap - o pagmumuni-muni sa mga nakaraang kabiguan - ng iyong mga aksyon ay nawawalan ng kapangyarihan. At kaya nagiging mas madali ang parehong pagkilos at panatilihin ang iyong pagtuon sa sandaling ito at gumanap nang mas mahusay.
Tingnan ang 8 Paraan para Bumalik sa Kasalukuyang Sandali para sa mga tip sa kung gaano kabilis ang hakbang sa ngayon. At tandaan na ang muling pagkonekta at pananatili sa ngayon ay isang mental na gawi - isang uri ng kalamnan - na iyong lumalaki. Sa paglipas ng panahon ito ay nagiging mas malakas at ginagawang mas madaling makalusot sa kasalukuyang sandali.
6. Lahat ay tao.
"Inaaangkin ko na ako ay isang simpleng indibidwal na mananagot na magkamali tulad ng ibang kapwa mortal. Ako ay nagmamay-ari, gayunpaman, na mayroon akong sapat na kababaang-loob upang aminin ang aking mga pagkakamali at muling sundan ang aking mga hakbang."
"Hindi matalino ang masyadong sigurado sa sariling karunungan. Ito ay malusog na ipaalala na ang pinakamalakas ay maaaring humina at ang pinakamatalino ay maaaring magkamali."
Kapag nagsimula kang gumawa ng mga alamat mula sa mga tao - kahit na sila ay maaaring gumawa ng mga hindi pangkaraniwang resulta - mayroon kang panganib na mahiwalay sa kanila. Maaari mong simulan ang pakiramdam na hindi mo makakamit ang mga katulad na bagay na ginawa nila dahil sila ay ibang-iba. Kaya mahalagang isaisip na ang lahat ay tao lamang kahit sino pa sila.
At sa tingin ko mahalagang tandaan na lahat tayo ay tao at madaling magkamali. Ang paghawak sa mga tao sa hindi makatwirang mga pamantayan ay lilikha lamang ng higit pang hindi kinakailangang mga salungatan sa iyong mundo at negatibiti sa loob mo.
Mahalaga rin na tandaan ito upang maiwasan ang pagkahulog sa medyo walang kwentang ugali ng pagpapatalo sa iyong sarili sa mga pagkakamaling nagawa mo. At sa halip ay makita nang malinaw kung saan ka nagkamali at kung ano ang matututuhan mo sa iyong pagkakamali. At pagkatapos ay subukan muli.
7. Manatili.
"Una hindi ka nila pinapansin, pagkatapos ay tinatawanan ka nila, pagkatapos ay inaaway ka nila, pagkatapos ay nanalo ka."
Maging matiyaga. Sa paglipas ng panahon ang pagsalungat sa paligid mo ay maglalaho at mahuhulog. At ang iyong panloob na pagtutol at mga tendensiyang sumasabotahe sa sarili na gustong pigilan ka at panatilihing tulad ng dati ay hihina.
Hanapin kung ano talaga ang gusto mong gawin. Pagkatapos ay makikita mo ang panloob na pagganyak upang magpatuloy, magpatuloy at magpatuloy. Makakahanap ka rin ng maraming kapaki-pakinabang na tip sa kung paano panatilihin ang iyong pagganyak sa How to Get Out of a Motivational Slump at 25 Simple Ways to Motivate Yourself .
Ang isang dahilan kung bakit naging matagumpay si Gandhi sa kanyang pamamaraan ng walang karahasan ay dahil siya at ang kanyang mga tagasunod ay napakapuwersa. Hindi lang sila sumuko.
Ang tagumpay o tagumpay ay bihirang dumating nang kasing bilis ng iyong naisin. Sa tingin ko, isa sa mga dahilan kung bakit hindi nakukuha ng mga tao ang gusto nila ay dahil sa mabilis silang sumuko. Ang oras na inaakala nilang kakailanganin ng isang tagumpay ay hindi kapareho ng tagal ng oras na karaniwang kinakailangan para makamit ang layuning iyon. Ang maling paniniwalang ito ay bahagyang nagmumula sa mundong ating ginagalawan. Isang mundong puno ng mga magic pill solution kung saan patuloy na ipinangangako sa atin ng advertising na maaari tayong magbawas ng malaking timbang o kumita ng isang toneladang pera sa loob lamang ng 30 araw. Maaari kang magbasa ng higit pa tungkol dito sa Isang Malaking Pagkakamali ng Isang Buong Maraming Tao .
Sa wakas, ang isang kapaki-pakinabang na tip upang mapanatili ang iyong pagtitiyaga ay ang makinig sa ikatlong quote ni Gandhi sa artikulong ito at panatilihin ang isang pagkamapagpatawa. Mapapagaan nito ang mga bagay sa pinakamahirap na panahon.
8. Tingnan ang kabutihan ng mga tao at tulungan sila.
"Tumingin lamang ako sa magagandang katangian ng mga tao. Hindi ako walang kapintasan sa aking sarili, hindi ko ipagpapalagay na suriin ang mga pagkakamali ng iba."
“Ang tao ay nagiging dakila nang eksakto sa antas kung saan siya gumagawa para sa kapakanan ng kanyang kapwa-tao.”
"Sa palagay ko ang pamumuno sa isang pagkakataon ay nangangahulugan ng mga kalamnan; ngunit ngayon ay nangangahulugan ito ng pakikisama sa mga tao."
Mayroong halos palaging isang bagay na mabuti sa mga tao. At mga bagay na maaaring hindi masyadong maganda. Ngunit maaari kang pumili kung anong mga bagay ang pagtutuunan ng pansin. At kung gusto mo ng pagpapabuti, ang pagtutuon sa kabutihan ng mga tao ay isang kapaki-pakinabang na pagpipilian. Pinapadali din nito ang buhay para sa iyo habang nagiging mas kaaya-aya at positibo ang iyong mundo at mga relasyon.
At kapag nakita mo ang kabutihan sa mga tao, mas madali mong hikayatin ang iyong sarili na maglingkod sa kanila. Sa pamamagitan ng paglilingkod sa ibang tao, sa pamamagitan ng pagbibigay sa kanila ng halaga hindi mo lamang napapaganda ang kanilang buhay. Sa paglipas ng panahon, malamang na makuha mo ang iyong ibinibigay. At ang mga taong tinutulungan mo ay maaaring makaramdam ng higit na hilig na tumulong sa ibang tao. At kaya kayo, sama-sama, lumikha ng isang paitaas na spiral ng positibong pagbabago na lumalaki at nagiging mas malakas.
Sa pamamagitan ng pagpapalakas ng iyong mga kasanayan sa pakikipagkapwa maaari kang maging isang mas maimpluwensyang tao at gawing mas malakas ang paitaas na spiral na ito. Ang ilang mga artikulo na maaaring magbigay sa iyo ng kapaki-pakinabang na payo sa departamentong iyon ay ang Do You Make These 10 Mistakes in a Conversation? at Dale Carnegie's Top 10 Tips para sa Pagpapabuti ng Iyong Social Skills . O maaari kang magpatuloy sa susunod na tip.
9. Maging magkatugma, maging totoo, maging iyong tunay na sarili.
"Ang kaligayahan ay kapag ang iniisip mo, sinasabi mo, at ginagawa mo ay magkakasuwato."
"Laging maghangad ng kumpletong pagkakatugma ng pag-iisip at salita at gawa. Palaging layunin na linisin ang iyong mga iniisip at magiging maayos ang lahat."
Sa tingin ko, ang isa sa mga pinakamahusay na tip para sa pagpapahusay ng iyong mga kasanayan sa pakikipagkapwa ay ang kumilos sa isang katugmang paraan at makipag-usap sa isang tunay na paraan. Mukhang talagang gusto ng mga tao ang tunay na komunikasyon. At mayroong maraming panloob na kasiyahan na makikita kapag ang iyong mga iniisip, salita at kilos ay nakahanay. Pakiramdam mo ay malakas at mabuti ang iyong sarili.
Kapag ang mga salita at mga kaisipan ay nakahanay pagkatapos ay makikita iyon sa iyong komunikasyon. Dahil ngayon ay mayroon ka na ng iyong tono ng boses at wika ng katawan - ang ilan ay nagsasabi na sila ay higit sa 90 porsiyento ng komunikasyon - sa pagkakahanay sa iyong mga salita.
Sa pagkakahanay ng mga channel na ito, malamang na talagang makinig ang mga tao sa iyong sinasabi. Nakikipag-usap ka nang walang hindi pagkakatugma, magkahalong mensahe o marahil isang uri ng kasinungalingan.
Gayundin, kung ang iyong mga aksyon ay hindi naaayon sa kung ano ang iyong pakikipag-usap, magsisimula kang saktan ang iyong sariling paniniwala sa kung ano ang maaari mong gawin. At ang paniniwala ng ibang tao sa iyo.
10. Patuloy na umunlad at umunlad.
"Ang patuloy na pag-unlad ay ang batas ng buhay, at ang isang tao na palaging nagsisikap na panatilihin ang kanyang mga dogma upang lumitaw na pare-pareho ay nagtutulak sa kanyang sarili sa isang maling posisyon."
Mapapabuti mo ang iyong mga kasanayan, gawi o muling suriin ang iyong mga pagsusuri. Maaari kang makakuha ng mas malalim na pag-unawa sa iyong sarili at sa mundo.
Oo naman, maaari kang magmukhang hindi pare-pareho o parang hindi mo alam kung ano ang iyong ginagawa paminsan-minsan. Maaaring nahihirapan kang kumilos nang naaayon o makipag-usap nang totoo. Ngunit kung hindi mo gagawin, tulad ng sinabi ni Gandhi, itaboy mo ang iyong sarili sa isang maling posisyon. Isang lugar kung saan sinusubukan mong panindigan o kumapit sa iyong mga dating pananaw para magmukhang pare-pareho habang napagtanto mo sa loob na may mali. Hindi ito isang masayang lugar. Ang piliin na lumago at umunlad ay isang mas masaya at mas kapaki-pakinabang na landas na tatahakin.

Thank you for sharing Amazing thoughts of Mahatma Gandhi.
Well some has praised and some has criticized this old Indian man, who was born in (Gujarat) India in 1869, he came to London in 1888 to get higher education and study Law also qualified as a Lawyer in England, matured and kind man care for his principle of Humanity in very early era; with due respect for all religions with strong belief in Truth, Non Violence and Forgiveness! He fight on these principles and had successful victory, and whole world has recognized and respected him as a Hero! Isn't it good enough to appreciate others good view ! Critics hardly see or learn from good qualities found in others !
Gandhi never said be the change. American
Arleen Lorrance wrote it in 1971
Whether quoting Ghandi or not, this is all good and inspiring advice. I don't know much about the man, I've heard good and bad. But the bottom line is, we need more positive thinking in the world. That's a really hard thing to come by these days, bad news around every corner for some of us. I've found my most positive changes begin when I change my own mind or allow someone else to inspire me. Thank you for your inspiration.
You said "Mahatma Gandhi needs no long introduction. Everyone knows about the man who lead the Indian people to independence from British rule in 1947."
This statement may be true for many but not the young generation becoming leaders today. We must continue to educate the children (the future) in order to help the world. Each breathing living person needs the strengthening balm of peace (awareness of peace) to become part of an ever evolving civilization.
I love this article, and agree with the concepts you've posted here.
That being said, Gandhi did NOT say "be the change you want to see in the world." See here for details: https://josephranseth.com/g...
"Be the change" does capture the essence of his teachings, and your article is a powerful resource for anyone wanting to self-purify and positively impact others in profound ways. (I'm just on a bit of a mission to clarify the mis-attribution of Gandhi's quote.)
Keep up the great work!
LATTERLY, MUCH HAS BEEN WRITTEN ABOUT THE NEGATIVES OF THE PRE-INDEPENDENCE LEADER-SOME CALLING HIM A CLOSETED GAY. OTHERS DESCRIBING HIM AS RACIST.............THE MANY WHO HAVE COME TO REVERE HIM, NOW SOMEWHAT STUNNED AT THE ALLEGATIONS
Please stop portraying Ghandi as a prophet by lying and associating others motivational stories and quotes to him. Gando's stories of racism, slavery, women rights abuses in Africa are known all over the world and easily available on Internet. Please research a little before and be truthful before coming up with such stuff.
http://www.dailygood.org/st...
Thanks for the informative article. Being the change!!
It is ironic that sometimes people who think highly of other 'leaders' ignore their bad qualities but tend to focus on the negatives of Gandhi which he, as a human, had, in his earlier life. For those, I say, correct your behavior first, before you criticize people who have done majority good!
Amazing how wise words remain wise words - truth remains truth no matter when it is spoken or heard. Good words for right now - thank you, Mahatma Gandi.

"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.

that arises, that shines as crystal, like diamond dewdust in sunlight for all to see,

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.

[Hide Full Comment]Gandhi's 10 Rules for Changing the World
[Hide Full Comment]•• 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...
•• 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
find and 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 shit!
- Your 'God' will probably just laugh about your silliness...

Imitate Jesus,Gandhi ji the Mahatma imitated Jesus Christ the real humanist,Read Bible to know the meaning of life and to be a celebrity
Awesome... love it
I had a good friend email me these amazing 10 thoughts of a truly highly evolved human being. Mahatma Gandhi is that once in a thousand years gift that all of humanity was presented by god. I now would like to quote a modern contemporary Mr Neil Young; "When one comes to a fork in the road lets not curse the darkness, but instead lets light a candle for all to see their way to safety". Mahatma Gandhi within these 10 thoughts has lighted many candles for all of us to find our ways through our daily lives. Mark P Schiesser, 2-5-2014.
Do the simple things to make someone's life easier. Give a lift to a stranger at a busstop
Put the dustbin out for your elderly neighbour
I am always amazed that people are shocked by simple gestures
Thank you. It is rewarding, we are always growing. at the moment I am living a situation difficult to separate me from my partner; but over time I learned and lived part of these councils, other urgent situations, and I can attest, that put them into practice helps. most always pain or suffering, let us learning, but if we really want and have love and support from others, as well as, give value self, opens the doors of hope and us out of the vacuum and the pain. I am a believer, not religious. I feel that God is with me and give me the strengthens to be most happy, I bring my conviction and courage. We can glimpse a morning, knowing you live in the present. We owe to life, the world is full of beautiful things, light and shadow are part of the day, we know to take advantage of them. It is beautiful to see the view from the top, but the journey is equal to it, enjoy!
we follow gandhiji's 10 rules we can be like gandhiji a little

[Hide Full Comment]Ghandhi was biggest bastard who let the partition of India and Pakistan happened and all Indians and Pakistani are facing sever setback as millions dollars are spent on defense in both the countries. Gandhi bastards drove back Indian Independence by many years. If he has motivated people to take guns in hand and favored all those Armed Revolutionaries, India might got Independence 100 years before 1947.
Nobody give you anything free served in a dish special the Independence.
He was child sex maniac and use slept naked with girls.
Rott in Hell you Bastard.
The simple aim of all individuals is to find peace & prosperity, their effort often does not get fulfilled, yet the satisfaction is they try to achieve the impossible.
Thank you so much for not only the words, but the tie-in to Action and the extra thoughtfulness of including extended readings. <3
Keep it positive! Bless
While all of Ghandi's wisdom, and the insightful commentary, resonate with me, #10 truly pinpoints the place I find myself in now. An old belief keep tugging at me, while my inner, spiritual compass is gravitating me in a very different direction. It's been a challenge, but I'm learning to keep pressing forward. Thank you so much for this site!
This is one true sage that if humanity has plenty of the world would be a much more beautiful place in which to live.
