Say you are ridding in a bus with all different kind of people, rich, poor, strong, old and weak. Along the way it gets stuck in a muddy ditch. Everyone decides to push the bus out of the ditch. When everyone puts their shoulders to it, some of the people just act like they are pushing but don’t put their efforts, thinking everyone else is pushing, so bus will be ready for them to ride without their help smart, maybe not.
If you think that attitude doesn’t exist in people just look around, able body people stay on the government assistance for longer than they need to be and think they are entitled, and then people whom don’t pay taxes they think they are smart like Donald Trump. Metaphorically speaking humanity is this spiritual bus, and it is pushed by the human beings, if you, yourself don’t watch yourself, you would avoid the reciprocation yet the purpose of the human individual’s life is to reciprocate. We all are in a spiritual business, we come to this life, take, give and then take help and pass and so the story goes.
God gives you life, you help and work to keep God in existence because without the human beings, there is no one there to put value on the wisdom of believing in God. As an individual you get life, comfort and love from the people around and you give the same back, yet you don’t get any oxygen from your belonging groups, no parents, no, nation, no religion is able to provide the life to individual but God. It is all in the ideal world of spirituality and only if you understand it.
If you look at the education given to us by our societies, it says you do less to get more or don’t do anything but squeeze and milk the system, because that is the nature of the business, even if it is related with your family, people around, community, humanity or God.
The whole concept of reciprocation is ignored because of the business mentality of getting but not giving. If your mantra is that, it is smart to do less to get more, it may make you a good business person but does it make you a good mortal being is questionable. From people using each other to society and even God with intentions to religions and nations to race and gender using individual to further their cause, it is business of politics. all the way.
Now picture if everyone pretend to put their shoulder to help to push the bus out of the ditch but no one is pushing, it is not going to go anywhere or if some of the people push but not everyone, it would be very hard for the people whom are pushing. It is just because they are surrounded by the people whom think they are smart by not helping. In the end of the day it is between you, and yourself, and the relationship between you and yourself means a lot more than one can think, because God reside within all of us so we all are being watched by ourselves and we will be judging ourselves harshly on our death beds. Life with guilt and regrets means you did not use your status of a CEO, you let others call the shots for you.
Self understanding is one of the wisdom, if you master it, you can regulate yourself, you don’t need someone telling you what to do and how to live your life because you are the one whom matters and is a CEO. The level of your inner happiness and contentment matters to you especially if you know you are a mortal CEO.
If your belonging group’s education is teaching you to take more than you give, and you are applying that philosophy to your living years with a habit to all the departments of your life, always remember if everyone cheats the bus would not go anywhere.
You can easily say that God is not there, so why should I put my efforts in reciprocation let the others do the job so you can ride free, it is not about God or the other people, it is all about you, because it is you who is living in your mortal skin and you have to answer to yourself about your honest and spiritual living.
Success has no meanings, if you are not healthy and happy, inner happiness depends on your health and when I am talking about the health I am not only talking about the physical health, though your physical health is closely related with your emotional and spiritual health.
The latest news was about the famine in Sudan, people are dying from hunger so united nation is calling for the help, they are blaming on the drought and water shortage.
You can see the children dying of malnourishment yet right in the neighborhood countries are oil rich they would rather have pipelines built for oil but not for the water to the neighbors even if they are dying.
Its openly said in Islam, “If your neighbor sleeps hungry your food is not kosher to you”. At this time it is not a matter of sleeping hungry, they are dying from starvation and drought. Most countries are Muslims and well aware of the spiritual knowledge of their religion, but they are victim of the political side of their religions. They can kill and bomb each other and passionately yell God is great from both sides and die with pride, what is wrong with this picture? You can only find out if you question to yourself individually because you are politically connected to your belonging group.
If the neighbor is dying from starvation, the whole political religion is bankrupt of spirituality and then there are charities from Christian nations, whom send missions to help but recruit for Christianity. Helping someone in need is spiritual but with strings attached, is totally political so that means most religions are victim of the politics of their sense of belonging to their respected groups, they have nothing to offer spiritually unless it is done in the name of God and humanity as a whole without any discrimination. When it is said your neighbor sleeping hungry, it was not about any religion, its denomination or sects, it is related simply to the neighbor. The trouble is that we individually have bought into our education of dog eat dog philosophy or who gives a dam about the kosher food, so we pretend to put the shoulder but without the efforts, no wonder we as a humanity can’t evolve spiritually.
