"Negalite prarasti tikėjimo žmonija. Žmonija yra vandenynas; jei keli vandenyno lašai yra nešvarūs, vandenynas netaps purvinas."
„Skirtumo tarp to, ką darome, ir to, ką galime padaryti, pakaktų, kad išspręstume didžiąją dalį pasaulio problemų.
„Jei neturėčiau humoro jausmo, seniai būčiau nusižudžiusi“.
Mahatma Gandhi nereikia ilgai pristatyti. Visi žino apie žmogų, kuris 1947 metais atvedė Indijos žmones į nepriklausomybę nuo britų valdžios.
Taigi pereikime prie kai kurių mano mėgstamiausių Mahatmos Gandhi patarimų.
1. Keisk save.
„Turite būti tas pokytis, kurį norite matyti pasaulyje“.
„Mūsų, kaip žmonių, didybė slypi ne tiek gebėjime perdaryti pasaulį – tai yra atominio amžiaus mitas – kiek gebėjime perdaryti save.
Jei pakeisite save, pakeisite savo pasaulį. Jei pakeisite savo mąstymą, pakeisite savo jausmus ir veiksmus. Ir taip jus supantis pasaulis pasikeis. Ne tik todėl, kad dabar žiūrite į savo aplinką per naujus minčių ir emocijų objektyvus, bet ir dėl to, kad viduje vykstantys pokyčiai gali leisti jums imtis veiksmų taip, kaip nebūtų – o gal net nesusimąstėte – būdami įstrigę savo senuose mąstymo modeliuose.
Ir problema keičiant savo išorinį pasaulį nekeičiant savęs yra ta, kad jūs vis tiek liksite savimi, kai pasieksite tą pokytį, kurio siekėte. Jūs vis tiek nepaliesite savo trūkumų, pykčio, negatyvumo, polinkio į save sabotuoti ir pan.
Taigi šioje naujoje situacijoje jūs vis tiek nerasite to, ko tikėjotės, nes jūsų protas vis dar smelkiasi nuo tų neigiamų dalykų. Ir jei gausite daugiau neturėdami supratimo apie savo ego ir nenutoldami nuo savo ego, jis gali tapti galingesnis. Kadangi jūsų ego mėgsta skirstyti dalykus, ieškoti priešų ir kurti atskirtį, jis gali pradėti bandyti sukurti dar daugiau problemų ir konfliktų jūsų gyvenime ir pasaulyje.
2. Jūs kontroliuojate.
„Niekas negali manęs įskaudinti be mano leidimo“.
Tai, ką jaučiate ir kaip į ką nors reaguojate, visada priklauso nuo jūsų. Gali būti „normalus“ arba įprastas būdas reaguoti į skirtingus dalykus. Bet tai dažniausiai tik viskas.
Jūs galite pasirinkti savo mintis, reakcijas ir emocijas beveik viskam. Jūs neturite išsigąsti, per daug reaguoti ar net reaguoti neigiamai. Galbūt ne kiekvieną kartą ir ne iš karto. Kartais kelių trūkčiojimo reakcija tiesiog išnyksta. Arba įsigali senas minties įprotis.
Ir kai jūs suprantate, kad niekas už jūsų ribų iš tikrųjų negali kontroliuoti, kaip jaučiatės, galite pradėti įtraukti šį mąstymą į savo kasdienį gyvenimą ir ugdyti jį kaip mąstymo įprotį. Įprotis, kurį laikui bėgant galite stiprėti ir stiprėti. Tai padarius gyvenimas tampa daug lengvesnis ir malonesnis.
3. Atleiskite ir paleiskite.
"Silpnas niekada negali atleisti. Atleidimas yra stipriojo atributas".
„Akis už akį tik paverčia visą pasaulį aklu“.
Kova su blogiu su blogiu niekam nepadės. Ir kaip minėta ankstesniame patarime, jūs visada pasirenkate, kaip į ką nors reaguoti. Kai galite vis labiau įtraukti tokį mąstymo įprotį į savo gyvenimą, galite reaguoti taip, kad būtų naudingiau jums ir kitiems.
Jūs suprantate, kad atleidimas ir praeities paleidimas padarys jums ir jūsų pasaulio žmonėms didelę paslaugą. O praleisti laiką neigiamoje atmintyje jums nepadės, kai išmoksite pamokas, kurias galite išmokti iš tos patirties. Tikriausiai sukelsite sau dar daugiau kančių ir paralyžiuosite save nuo veiksmų šiuo momentu.
Jei neatleidžiate, tuomet leidžiate praeičiai ir kitam žmogui kontroliuoti, kaip jaučiatės. Atleisdamas išlaisvini save iš tų saitų. Ir tada galite visiškai susitelkti, pavyzdžiui, į kitą tašką.
4. Be veiksmų niekur nedingsi.
„Nepilna praktikos verta daugiau nei daugybė pamokslavimo.
Nesiimant veiksmų bus padaryta labai mažai. Tačiau imtis veiksmų gali būti sunku ir sunku. Gali būti daug vidinio pasipriešinimo.
Taigi jūs galite griebtis pamokslavimo, kaip sako Gandis. Arba skaityti ir mokytis be galo. Ir jausmas, kad judate į priekį. Tačiau realiame gyvenime gauti mažai praktinių rezultatų arba jų visai nėra.
Taigi, norėdami iš tikrųjų patekti ten, kur norite, ir iš tikrųjų suprasti save bei savo pasaulį, turite praktikuotis. Knygos dažniausiai gali suteikti jums žinių. Turite imtis veiksmų ir šias žinias paversti rezultatais ir supratimu.
Galite peržiūrėti kelis veiksmingus patarimus, kaip išspręsti šią problemą, skiltyje Kaip imtis daugiau veiksmų: 9 galingi patarimai . Arba galite pereiti prie kito punkto ir sužinoti daugiau apie geriausią patarimą, kaip imtis daugiau veiksmų, kuriuos iki šiol radau.
5. Pasirūpink šia akimirka.
„Nenoriu numatyti ateities. Man rūpi rūpintis dabartimi. Dievas man nedavė jokios kontrolės tolimesniam momentui.
Geriausias būdas, kurį radau, kaip įveikti vidinį pasipriešinimą, kuris dažnai sustabdo mus nuo veiksmų, yra kiek įmanoma išlikti dabartyje ir priimti.
Kodėl? Na, o būdami dabartinėje akimirkoje nesijaudinkite dėl kitos akimirkos, kurios vis tiek negalite kontroliuoti. Ir pasipriešinimas veiksmams, kylantis iš to, kad įsivaizduojate neigiamas ateities pasekmes arba apmąstote praeities nesėkmes, praranda savo galią. Taigi tampa lengviau ir imtis veiksmų, ir sutelkti dėmesį į šią akimirką ir geriau pasirodyti.
Peržiūrėkite 8 būdus, kaip grįžti į dabartį, kad gautumėte patarimų, kaip greitai pereiti į dabartį. Ir atminkite, kad atkurti ryšį su dabartimi ir buvimą joje yra protinis įprotis – tam tikras raumuo – kurį auginate. Laikui bėgant jis tampa galingesnis ir leidžia lengviau nuslysti į dabartinę akimirką.
6. Visi yra žmonės.
"Aš tvirtinu, kad esu paprastas žmogus, galintis klysti, kaip ir bet kuris kitas mirtingasis. Tačiau aš žinau, kad turiu pakankamai nuolankaus prisipažinti savo klaidas ir atsekti savo žingsnius."
"Neprotinga būti per daug tikriems savo išmintimi. Sveika priminti, kad stipriausias gali susilpnėti, o išmintingiausias - klysti."
Kai pradedate kurti mitus iš žmonių – nors jie galėjo duoti nepaprastų rezultatų – rizikuojate nuo jų atitrūkti. Galite pradėti jaustis taip, lyg niekada negalėtumėte pasiekti panašių dalykų, kuriuos padarė jie, nes jie labai skirtingi. Taigi svarbu nepamiršti, kad kiekvienas yra tik žmogus, kad ir kas jis būtų.
Ir manau, kad svarbu atsiminti, kad visi esame žmonės ir linkę klysti. Žmonių laikymasis nepagrįstų standartų tik sukels daugiau nereikalingų konfliktų jūsų pasaulyje ir negatyvumo jūsų viduje.
Taip pat svarbu tai atsiminti, kad išvengtumėte gana nenaudingo įpročio graužti save dėl klaidų, kurias padarėte. Vietoj to galėsite aiškiai pamatyti, kur suklydote ir ko galite pasimokyti iš savo klaidos. Ir tada bandykite dar kartą.
7. Atkakliai.
„Iš pradžių jie tave ignoruoja, tada juokiasi iš tavęs, tada kovoja su tavimi, tada tu laimi.
Būkite atkaklūs. Laikui bėgant jus supanti opozicija išnyks ir išnyks. O jūsų vidinis pasipriešinimas ir save sabotuojančios tendencijos, kurios nori jus sulaikyti ir išlaikyti tokią, kokia buvote visada, susilpnės.
Raskite tai, ką iš tikrųjų mėgstate daryti. Tada rasite vidinę motyvaciją tęsti, eiti ir eiti. Taip pat galite rasti daug naudingų patarimų, kaip išlaikyti motyvaciją skiltyje „Kaip atsikratyti motyvacijos nuosmukio“ ir „25 paprasti būdai, kaip motyvuoti save“ .
Viena iš priežasčių, kodėl Gandhi taip sėkmingai naudojo savo neprievartos metodą, buvo ta, kad jis ir jo pasekėjai buvo tokie atkaklūs. Jie tiesiog nepasidavė.
Sėkmė ar pergalė retai kada ateis taip greitai, kaip norėtumėte. Manau, kad viena iš priežasčių, kodėl žmonės negauna to, ko nori, yra tai, kad per anksti pasiduoda. Laikas, kurio, jų manymu, prireiks pasiekimui, nėra toks pat, kiek paprastai reikia šiam tikslui pasiekti. Šis klaidingas įsitikinimas iš dalies kyla iš pasaulio, kuriame gyvename. Pasaulis, pilnas stebuklingų piliulių sprendimų, kuriame reklama mums nuolat žada, kad vos per 30 dienų galime numesti daug svorio arba uždirbti daug pinigų. Daugiau apie tai galite perskaityti straipsnyje Viena didelė klaida, kurią daro daugybė žmonių .
Galiausiai, vienas naudingas patarimas, kaip išlaikyti atkaklumą, yra klausytis trečiosios Gandhi citatos šiame straipsnyje ir išlaikyti humoro jausmą. Tai gali palengvinti reikalus sunkiausiais laikais.
8. Pamatykite gėrį žmonėse ir padėkite jiems.
"Aš žiūriu tik į gerąsias vyrų savybes. Nebūdama nepriekaištinga, nesiimsiu tirti kitų kaltų."
„Žmogus tampa didis būtent tiek, kiek jis dirba savo artimųjų gerovei“.
„Manau, kad kažkada lyderystė reiškė raumenis, o šiandien tai reiškia sugyvenimą su žmonėmis.
Beveik visada žmonėse yra kažkas gero. Ir dalykų, kurie gali būti ne tokie geri. Bet jūs galite pasirinkti, į ką sutelkti dėmesį. Ir jei norite tobulėti, tada sutelkti dėmesį į žmonių gėrį yra naudingas pasirinkimas. Tai taip pat palengvina jūsų gyvenimą, nes jūsų pasaulis ir santykiai tampa malonesni ir pozityvesni.
Ir kai pamatai gėrį žmonėse, tampa lengviau motyvuoti save jiems padėti. Tarnaudami kitiems žmonėms, suteikdami jiems vertę, jūs ne tik pagerinate jų gyvenimą. Laikui bėgant esate linkę gauti tai, ką duodate. Ir žmonės, kuriems padedate, gali jaustis labiau linkę padėti kitiems žmonėms. Taigi jūs kartu sukuriate teigiamų pokyčių spiralę, kuri auga ir stiprėja.
Stiprindami savo socialinius įgūdžius galite tapti įtakingesniu žmogumi ir dar labiau sustiprinti šią spiralę. Keletas straipsnių, kurie gali suteikti jums naudingų patarimų tame skyriuje: Ar darote šias 10 pokalbio klaidų? ir Dale'o Carnegie 10 geriausių patarimų, kaip pagerinti savo socialinius įgūdžius . Arba galite tiesiog pereiti prie kito patarimo.
9. Būkite suderinti, būkite autentiški, būkite tikruoju savimi.
„Laimė yra tada, kai tai, ką tu galvoji, ką sakai ir ką darai, yra harmonijoje.
"Visada siekite visiškos minčių, žodžių ir darbų harmonijos. Visada stenkitės išvalyti savo mintis ir viskas bus gerai."
Manau, kad vienas geriausių patarimų, kaip tobulinti savo socialinius įgūdžius – elgtis darniai ir bendrauti autentiškai. Atrodo, kad žmonėms labai patinka autentiškas bendravimas. Ir yra daug vidinio malonumo, kai jūsų mintys, žodžiai ir veiksmai yra suderinti. Jautiesi galingas ir geras.
Kai žodžiai ir mintys sutampa, tai atsiskleidžia jūsų bendraujant. Kadangi dabar jūsų balso tonalumas ir kūno kalba – kai kurie sako, kad tai daugiau nei 90 procentų bendravimo – atitinka jūsų žodžius.
Kai šie kanalai yra suderinti, žmonės linkę iš tikrųjų klausytis, ką jūs sakote. Jūs bendraujate be nesuderinamumo, mišrių pranešimų ar galbūt tam tikro melo.
Be to, jei jūsų veiksmai nesutampa su tuo, ką bendraujate, tada pradedate pakenkti savo tikėjimui, ką galite padaryti. Ir kitų žmonių tikėjimas tavimi.
10. Toliau augti ir tobulėti.
"Nuolatinis vystymasis yra gyvenimo dėsnis, o žmogus, kuris visada stengiasi išlaikyti savo dogmas, kad atrodytų nuoseklus, įveda į klaidingą poziciją."
Beveik visada galite patobulinti savo įgūdžius, įpročius arba iš naujo įvertinti savo vertinimus. Galite giliau suprasti save ir pasaulį.
Žinoma, kartais galite atrodyti nenuosekliai arba atrodyti, kad nežinote, ką darote. Jums gali kilti sunkumų elgdamiesi nuosekliai arba bendraudami autentiškai. Bet jei to nepadarysite, jūs, kaip sako Gandis, atsidursite klaidingoje pozicijoje. Vieta, kurioje bandote palaikyti savo senas pažiūras arba jos laikytis, kad atrodytumėte nuoseklūs, o suvokdami, kad kažkas negerai. Tai nėra linksma vieta būti. Pasirinkimas augti ir tobulėti yra laimingesnis ir naudingesnis kelias.

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.
"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.
[Hide Full Comment]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.

We are not puppets on a string waiting for God to move us here or there. God has given us "free will" so we may directly influence the very next moment in our lives as well as down the road. We are the product/essence of our actions, great and small and with such, we are, every single human being... Creators... and we reap what we sow...

Gandhi was the biggest blunder in Indian History. selfish to the core imposing his will on the poor masses. The indian mess is the result of the blunders committed by gandhi.

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

[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...
••
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.”

world and others.

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!

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.

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!
