It is ones own perception that people look so dull, bored, just passing the the days somehow.The colour red to one person may be burgundy to another and oxblood to someone else. It goes on endlessly.
It is not a mere perception. Most people do live their life without discovering their true self, realizing their truest potentials, or let's say, nothing else but just appreciating their life otherwise oh oh, why is there so much misery in the world? Millions of people are lonely, depressed, suffer from serious psychological issues, or live their life like machines, live life as a suffering.Saying otherwise is bullshit.
All one has to do is to scroll through the forums.
Stop looking towards what others see, do and have.
What is empathy?
The worlds misery is created by trying to make other peoples lives our own. Everyone is a victim.
Does it also include people replying to posts here that ask the question, "What should I do....(xyz scenario)" ?
Also, when did I try to make other people's lives my own? I just asked a simple question. "What is the cause?" WOW.
Now even wondering "why is there so much misery in this world" ... a seeminlgy forceful act? ugh, this PC era.
Everything comes from within. Choices are made within.
That doesn't mean that people don't take charge of whatever comes from within. Or just accept it with unawareness. I thought that awareness was necessary. But okay, who am I to say, I should let people live in misery and just watch them suffer.
There are people in the world who will always need help. When we help someone we should always realise they are a life of their own.
They do? Or is it one's own perception? The colour red to one person may be burgundy to another and oxblood to someone else. ??
If they do, then it seems like helping them is not a good idea, right? Because as per you, one needs to Stop looking towards what others see, do and have.
Otherwise, they may get accused of trying to change people's lives their own. Like if I am happy, and trying to make others happy, isn't it doing the same thing, that you are accusing me of doing?
This is the shortest video I could find on youtube that explains it.
I hope it helps answer your question.
Sadhguru - Where do you see me
I don't think you are able to percieve a difference between trying to change people's lives as their own, and wondering what's bothering the people? (Hint: There is one.)
There is a difference between giving people a destination and giving them a direction.
