What is right or wrong in this world?
There is nothing wrong with anything. Even in any person. Perception of the person compel him to do wrong things but that person is not wrong. We often say someone is wrong or right and make our judgement. This is the primary point of misery in everyone's lives. We judge whether good or bad, if he is good basket in our mind, then we expect the person to do all good things in life. When it does not happen we suffer or we cry saying he is changed. So best way is to not to judge whether someone is good or bad, just observe the actions and take what is necessary. This one simple step in life can do wonders.
A man with weakness always want to suppress his weakness by showing power over others. When we do not have enough strength to fight with our mind, we start criticising or by hurting others just to prove we are strong enough. But real strength is to bravely face the mind and accept the weakness if any, overcome from such weakness. Suppose wife gets angry on her husband. She will scold her husband. Why? She is not able to accept her weakness that she cannot cope with insincerity. So whenever some one is insincere, she gets hurt and then harms herself.
This is happening with everyone in this world. We all have weaknesses, identifying the weaknesses and become strong is the way to lead happy life. Most people always cry on others and suffer so much inside that his/her work is not recognised. But reality is he/she is weak in that prospect that's why huge cry ..
Swami Vivekananda says be bold, strong. Face the mind and fight with so much courage. Mind may push you hit the other person, but change with love. Changing from hatred to love needs immense strength.
Real strength lies in handling our selves by not reacting it. Where is the strength if you cry on others? Where is the strength if you hit someone who hit you earlier?
Where is the strength if you show power over the weak?
Real strength is to put brave fight over strong. That is mind's pull. Mind always say react this way or that way. Stop becoming slave of mind.
If there is no salt or spice in food, that's fine. If you scold your wife, it is weakness that you cannot live without salt or spice. Instead just try to change with love, no matter how the food is, fight with your mind and say I love this food. This food is god's gift. This way lives can be changed.
So conclusion is to always fight with mind and never try to put blame on others to cover weakness.
I am weak in many areas but covering those I may have to show my power over weaker than me. That's happening everywhere.
If someone is addicted to alcohol, it is his weakness to control mind and he can overcome if he says to his mind thay he can be happy without alcohol. Otherwise he would start criticising others who do not drink just to prove he is right.
So if everyone looks upon himself before judging others, there cannot be misery and the world will change.
Everyone is equal with inner capacity according ancient Indian wisdom. It is just if we work upon ourselves and clean our dirty thoughts in mind we can do wonders.
Be brave and strong over your mind's pull. Mind always try to pull so strong but never allow it to become scapegoat of its play.
