AT PEACE
An
elder said: Cut off from yourself rash
confidence, and control your tongue, and
your belly, and abstain from wine. And
if anyone speak to you about any matter
do not argue with him. But if he speaks
rightly, say: Yes. If he speaks wrongly
say to him: you know what you are
saying. But do not argue with him about
the things he has said. Then your mind
will be at peace.
What we are
trying to achieve is peace of mind. The
way to do this is by avoiding unpeaceful
things, no matter how much they might draw
our interest. If something is unpeaceful,
it will not help our peace of mind, and
must be avoided. It is so easy to work
hard for so long, and then eliminate the
value of the work by one unpeaceful word
or action. For most people, their daily
routine is mostly unpeaceful, and they
rarely have the good fortune to experience
peace of mind. But when once attained, a
peaceful mind is the most glorious
experience one can have. Yet it is so
fragile - so easy for the peace to be
broken, and the old cycles set in motion
again, keeping us from our goal.
When our mind is
peaceful we are at last able to exercise
our full range of choices, and our free
will, being under peaceful conscious
control, leads us towards the most
suitable experiences. We know that we must
avoid all action and thought which upsets
the peace of mind.
The following
are considered to upset the mind.
The following
are to be avoided:-
Any unloving
thought or action.
An excess of
alcohol.
An angry
experience.
A
misunderstanding.
Over eating.
Loud noises.
Another person's
discomfort.
CITY LIVING AND THINKING
In
the city, people complain about
uneven flagstones, and overhanging
signs in walking places. In the
country, obstacles are expected,
or cleared by anyone who finds
them cumbersome. If this was done
in the city, then the courts would
be involved.
In the country, everyone
knows each other, and behaves
accordingly.
In the country there is
a deeper understanding of the laws
of nature.
in
the country, people are more
friendly, and more understanding.
in the country, people
are less excitable,
and more satisfied with their
lives.
Survival of the fittest
might apply when there is
insufficient for everyone.
However, when there is sufficient,
then everyone survives, without
having to spend inordinate amounts
of time and energy in finding
food. Then, with time available,
levels of cooperation begin to
arise, which themselves save time
and energy. Then, these levels
arise beyond the levels of
efficiency, such is the present
trend towards globalisation. The
volume of movement of raw
materials and people that has
become necessary as a result of
globalisation has increased to the
point where efficiency is
deteriorating, and the system is
collapsing. The saving grace will
be to fall back on the old cottage
industries, while the expertise is
still available (just).
