NUTS AND BOLTS OF PERSONAL HAPPINESS. Last one for 2018.
All the best of health, happiness and success of all kind to all. Not only happy new year but new and happy spiritual years. Hope we can keep our politics limited to our governing systems and remove our politics from our religions and science.
Happiness, contentment and satisfaction in mortal life is as important as the oxygen itself. If you live an unhappy life you can understand the real value of happiness if you start to think about your mortality. An otherwise healthy individual should be able to achieve some level of happiness if they can think from out side of the situation they are in. In past I have talked about my triangle called health, happiness and success. If you are not healthy whether its physical, emotional or spiritual plain and simple you just can’t logically be happy. If you are not healthy and happy there is no valuable success for you individually regardless of what others think about you. It is the most important thing for a mortal being to understand that this is an exclusive journey for you and interestingly enough that you are the one who is responsible for your accumulation of personal happiness.
If we somehow ignore all that and get stuck into climbing and achieving constantly higher levels of life on the price of happiness. Potentially and eventually we have to end up leaving it all behind. We may leave a lesson for others to learn from our imperfect way of living. Success is not to impress others, to fit in or to be admired by others, its exclusively for your personal fulfillment and if you are personally unfulfilled all your living years. It maybe is a waste of time for you but not for others, others may benefit from your efforts. Steve Job comes to mind for an example. People still benefit from his life legacy but he had a life unfulfilled for himself. He has been gone only a few years and already regardless of his contributions not very many people talk about him. If I am writing about him it is not because of his contributions to humanity but his personal unfulfilled legacy of a mortal life.
If you are an individual who gets fulfillment from working and enjoy achieving things make sure to keep your focus on mortal nature as well because its not something what is not going to happen to you. It is a bitter fact of our life you may have not been talked about often enough.
Spirituality is an action based wisdom of mortality.
When religious people act like a group of people as power to influence and enforce even good way of living. They have surrendered to politics of sense of belonging based on prejudice and discrimination against others or even their own kind whom don’t follow the religion as strictly as an extremist would. That makes their actions and preaching politically tainted. If they preach good actions, good for you because spirituality is an action based wisdom of mortality. Remember your good actions would take you to the right path of God otherwise you stray from spirituality and become a speechless follower of a cult like group of people. You lose your voice of a Godly CEO, become insignificant and you even start to believe yourself as a designated sinner.
All the wrongs start when religions start to claim that the path to God is exclusively under their umbrella. God, spirituality and good deeds of human individuals are not political or exclusive to any one particular group of people. These things are universal so if any group try to own these with exclusive rights that is just plain and simple politics. As individuals we should or we must snap out of these politically tainted belief systems, speak against and take a stand for spirituality related equal human rights. Respect each other as cells of God almighty.
No one and I repeat no one has exclusive rights on good actions, spirituality and God. Its all between God and a human individual. When the middle man comes in three wrong things happen immediately.
One it makes politics of sense of belonging over power or take a hold onto any and all belief systems. Second makes the individual unimportant and unworthy of having a direct connection to God. Third good things become good for some exclusively but bad for others which automatically makes even their God discriminatory and prejudiced. Do you believe if God is prejudiced or discriminatory? If you do you need to know spirituality is the one makes a path to God not politics so you need to clean up your belief system. That is if you really want path of God, reaching and doing Godly things is not in following some rituals or certain kind of prayers it is in reaching to understand practical prayers. Serving humanity helping the weak and needy according to the best you can do is near and dear to spiritual God. Cleaning politics out of your belief system and believing in serving humanity as a whole is an individual task for you to achieve spirituality. God is not for any one particular group of people otherwise by now we would have a winner so believe not in politics but in universality of the spirituality and God.
If you ask a parent to love one child more than other or others or be prejudice or use discriminatory behavior against their own children. Even as human whom are bundles of emotions can think that is wrong how can we expect from a spiritual entity like God to be discriminating and prejudiced against some groups and not others.
A human individual is a human being regardless of the affiliation of belonging to certain group so claiming that even God is discriminatory and prejudicial, how can we as individuals come out of these injustice related traits? I can see only one way it is possible and that is if human individual start to believe that they are worthy enough to connect to God directly. Now are you up to this worthiness and are able to implement that in y0ur personal, individual and a mortal journey? Ask yourself why not? You will easily find that middle man or your belonging group wants to have political control on you. They brain wash you to believe into that you are weak, insignificant, unclean, unworthy of directly connecting to God. Ask a mother who cleans her child if her child is a sinner and not worth of her love.
You just can’t find a way to connect to God directly if you yourself have been telling yourself that you are not worthy of it. Ask your self, if your feelings of unworthiness has something to do with the middleman and why is that?
When you are able to see the politics behind your religious rules, customs and traditions you will actually achieve and become a chief executive officer of your life as you have been created or evolved. Topic of creation and evolution is quite a topic everyone love to assume with their limited and constantly evolving knowledge. I just don’t understand why so much passion in being right while it is all based on assumptions exclusively. Whether you believe in God or not, you are created or evolved remember if you are still learning everyday new things, inventing and exploring how and why do you think you know everything there is to know. Why you claim such knowledge same way our ancestors did? They killed each other over this sense of belonging related ego and we still are doing that. Why can’t we evolve from this even it is an unquestionable fact that we are always learning and evolving. We need to evolve especially in this area because as an individual we all come with the free will and personal sense of justice.
Your will to choose has always been there, still is there and will always be there to help you to choose. Since you have given your powers away to the politics of your sense of belonging, it will play a major role into your conformation to be a subservient to your belonging group. You act or even dress up according to your belonging group rules, traditions and customs and you are unable to see beyond being obedient. You self regulate not to look beyond the interests of belonging group and even sacrifice over the politics and commit spiritual crimes against other human beings. Quite a down fall for the individual who has brought free will, personal sense of justice, compassion and love from before birth.
You let politics of your belonging group come in and play a role in your every personal action. Where do you fit your personal and individual responsibilities. If you don’t take charge, pick, implement and follow spirituality instead of politics of religions. You yourself become responsible for making or at least contributing into religion becoming a political entity. Since God, spirituality and humanity as a whole has nothing to do with politics, your actions or even intentions of your actions are under the influences of the politics of your sense of belonging.
Politics has its place in humanity but spirituality based actions bring peace of mind, satisfaction, happiness and contentment for human individual. That becomes even more important personally, especially if the individual is mortal. Fortunately or unfortunately we all are aware of our mortal nature whether we like it or not so we need to do some soul searching while we are living.
In a mortal life spirituality brings out or makes individual to become aware of their real purpose of individual life. A political group on the other hand uses individual’s life for political purposes, sacrifices them to gain power and control on others or opposing groups. If you as an individual let yourself be used for political purposes it is your prerogatives but always remember harming other human beings especially the innocents ones carries a price for you individually as well. You have been granted free will to be responsible for your individual actions regardless of your group politics.
When spiritual crimes are committed under the guidance of religions you may think you are doing it for God, you may have to use your CEO status to see clearly. Personal peace of mind and guilty feelings are a very high price to pay especially if you are a mortal being. It is like a living hell. Just ask a war veteran who is thinking about committing suicide. Damage done by the politics of nationalism and religious affiliations are not curable by our groups because they are the one who caused it. Imagine what you can lose by getting damaged by losing hope, faith in God and spirituality altogether. Following a political religion blindly may have a bigger price to pay especially for a mortal and temporary being.
Becoming depressed, anxious or losing hope and faith in your temporary visit is far too much to pay for the approval of a group of people especially if there is an option to belong to humanity as a whole. Take charge, choose spirituality to follow God personally and directly. Choose your actions over prescribed prayers and fasting to get in heaven of these living years. Remember God needs you to be alive to take care of Godly fairs because spirituality is useless unless human individual put their physical backs and shoulders to it.
Take care of your living years by believing in action based spirituality you will become comfortable in your skin, if you believe you have done good things practically you will feel good about yourself. That will make this life heavenly by removing fear of hell real happiness is not in approval of belonging groups it is in living a practically reciprocating life. If you are emotionally injured, the best solution is to bring practical prayers into your living years that will help you to feel fulfilled. A mortal but fulfilled life is the purpose of a mortal life.
God needs human individual’s physicality to become relevant, your personal actions to follow God are not based on politics they are the foundation of spirituality and God himself.
Choose spirituality over belonging groups it will help you to choose humanity as a whole as well. It stimulates your personal sense of justice which is a crucial part in becoming an overall healthy human being. Personal sense of justice with the free will we have had all along from before birth but we could not use it because we have been conformed by the education and politics of our sense of belonging to our belonging groups exclusively.
Importance of human individual becomes easy to recognize and understand when we start to see spiritual actions take physical form through the human individual. I dare you to remove human individual and see if the spirituality can function. It is a matter of understanding God, what God is, why God is and how God is? Without understanding the importance of human individual nothing is possible. You can see politics and nothing but. Even cow is respected in Hindu religion more than a living breathing human God. Lack of understanding can create all the prejudice and discrimination which gives powers to some on the expense of others. Those others don’t understand themselves so they don’t understand God and become unquestioning followers of whatever is preached.
Equal justice to all is a pillar of spirituality which can some it up that most of our politically tainted religions fail the test of spirituality. Since they preach only they can take the individual to heaven after death automatically that means all others would go to hell which means they even make their own God a discriminatory and prejudiced entity just like human being. Human individual has to understand that God is an understanding and understanding of this reality is based on spirituality not politics. If a religion is used for political purposes it is not a spiritual system period. I believe we need politics in our day to day life but spirituality has its place as well so mixing the two is dangerous. As groups we have been doing it all along which harms individuals as victims of spiritual crimes and as criminal of spiritual crimes so mixing politics of the state and religious beliefs is just wrong and impractical. Sure it has always been part of our politics but these days we don’t kill each other with swords, we have weapons of mass destruction so we need to clean up otherwise we can have a day of judgement caused by our politics not by God.
Since spiritual world is private and personal to the individual so there is no room for mixing politics with spirituality. Individual came with ability to understand free will and individual powers to make even God relevant. They can choose to clearly put politics and spirituality in their compartments. Remember if even God can’t bring spiritual actions to physical reality how important a living breathing human individual can be, yet we kill each other over a cow what some people eat and some worship so our governments should separate religions from our politics science and justice systems.
Find that importance and assume your personal and individual responsibilities to be a human who came with free will and sense of justice. If you don’t value yourself you can be used by other human beings to be sacrificed or you yourself choose to become a mob without the thoughts of being an individually responsible entity never mind Godly entity.
If your actions are going to rob you of your happiness, contentment and install personal guilt, don’t you want to protect yourself from yourself. Our wisdom of life is to understand mortality and understanding mortality makes us vulnerable and vulnerabilities should make us humble. We individually are responsible to put everything in perspectives for ourselves before our actions. Unfortunately we are so immersed into the politics of our sense of belonging that we neglect to care to know who and what we really are.
Free will and personal sense of justice has been with us individually since the beginning of our awareness but we have been brain washed to be weak from the beginnings as well. In today’s world individual is not what we have been in the not too distanced past. Today our politics has changed and even some of our groups are finding out that a stronger individual is an asset to the group instead of weakness so individual has been gaining strength. Democracy and equal human rights are new normal so conservatives have been politically losing ground and they can’t use religious politics to control today’s free world. Interestingly in today’s world with the help of internet people know and care what happens in the world so spirituality is still alive and well, not perfect but still a progress in the right directions.
Today‘s equal human rights are bringing humanity closer with the help of internet. There is a next step or I should say a new big leap an individual has to take and that is to think beyond belonging groups and join the humanity as a whole. Assume personal responsibilities to question even own belonging groups for wrong doing and especially not following the wrong doing of the belonging groups.
These responsibilities are the foundation of next ways of governing systems. Law and order should not only be for the individual anymore. All corporations, political entities even governing authorities or systems should fall into that position as well so we can stop spiritual crimes committed by all entities whether they are individual or collective especially in the name of nationalism, religion or God.
Sure we have united nation already but it is a justice system without the law enforcement so it is an impotent entity until it gets teeth. It has veto system which is a sign of discrimination and prejudice, it is a political authority for few nations not for the whole world as it claims to be. We need something even if it is not perfectly working but there should be efforts to improve and enhance just like we do in every other thing we do as humanity.
Honesty is a universal truth, in past it was related with Godly ways interestingly today it is connected with science. Today if something is scientifically proven it is accepted as truth. Trouble is that as human beings we think differently so our truths are not seen as the truths by the politically opposing groups so scientific of not we still argue and fight over things just to be egotistic.
It is common for businesses to put each other down to promote their product. Humanity just can’t afford to bring this business like behavior in our governing systems because a governing system should be based on justice to all, equal human rights and spirituality. God has been bought and sold for political purposes by our politically tainted and business oriented religions, not only they put each other down they actually go to war and kill each others innocents yet in the name of God.
They have been doing it for thousands of years, if you bring the politics of sense of belonging out and just use the spirituality they preach world would become a better place. We may not need to worship in the greed of heaven or for fear of hell after all. Even today’s scientifically savvy human being can be aware of spirituality related personal peace of mind, satisfaction, contentment and happiness. We all naturally want to be hopeful, optimistic and seek happiness and contentment. Why are we created that way? What does it prove? Just start asking this question to find the truth, whether its spiritual or scientific, you may find out that we are not perfect and we may still will be fighting with each other over our politically tainted truths but we can improve and be better.
Fighting over God or our unknowns is one thing but fighting over science of global warming is just absurd. Everyone can see right before their eyes but politics of our sense of belonging to our groups makes us susceptible, only because we are unable to deal with our emotions like ego, pride, honor. Remember the mother of all these is our sense of belonging to our groups. Understanding politics of sense of belonging to our groups can open the door for consolidation and ability to tap into spirituality so we can all belong to humanity as a whole. Eradicate prejudice and discrimination related politics from our religions to create peace on earth and bring inner peace to the individual to live an emotionally, physically, psychologically and spiritually happy and satisfying mortal life.
