Stuck in between- Can't go back, can't move forward

5 posts in this topic

I'm going to make this very short and i'm sure many will understand me.

Do we need to help humanity or is everything perfect the way it is?

Do we fight evil or accept evil, or accept evil while fighting it?

and at the end, if we are supposed to accept everything, including evil, why should we aim  for selflessness? why should you be selfless when things are exactly what they should be?

I. am. very. confused..

You should not fight anything as resistance builds persistance instead you show love, this is not easy as ego will always wan't to fight. But in this case fighting against evil would mean we are using "evil' against evil so we just create more evil. I will replace this with love and hate, because that's core states of all humanity. If you wan't there to be more love you put out there more love not hate against evil, because then we have evil + your hate which is evil too It just adds up. I would say the best way is become loving being yourself and be on loving frequency all the time. Everytime you do or say something ask yourself:  "Am I doing this out of love?" . Then I believe we all should contribute to society by choosing our life purpose to be something that society can benefit from not just for your own personal desires. 

I see world as perfect, It has always been perfect, is now, and will always be perfect. Why? Because world is not evil or non-evil. It just is the way It is. Meaning I don't really define world as evil or non - evil I just try to be in loving state and build life that I wan't to live, including having career that's focused on contribution to others. This is not my main path, I'm working on main one, but as side project I have company that sells health products, herbs, superfoods. I get money than helps me sustain my being here and others benefit from that, It's win/win. This is all I believe I should do. You don't need to change world, just become the best version of yourself, If we all do It we live in heaven. It nor good nor bad, It is as It Is.

@RabbitHole This is really good. this is how i'm trying to be as well but then I, again, get stuck on the idea that, if i help others and becoming more loving, it's not gonna change anything because like you said, evil is still part of this life. 

wait, i just had a thought.! unless, by helping others, i shouldn't try to change things, i would just do it because this is who i am..... wait i'm getting ideas while writing this atm lol. my brain honestly keeps going back and forth on this matter for a while now.

@Azza I want to quote for you some of my notes from Ramana maharchi's teachings.

 

Q: I suffer in both mind and body. From the day of my birth I have never had happiness. My mother too suffered from the time she concieved me, I hear. Why do I suffer thus? I have not sinned in this life....

A: you say the mind and body suffer. But do they ask the questions? Who is the questioner? Is it not the other that is beyond both mind and body? 

 

Q: there are widespread disasers havoc in the world, for example, famine and pestilence. What is the cause of this state of affairs? 

A: To whom does all this appear? 

Q: That won't do. I see misery everywhere.

A: You were not aware of the world and its suffering in your sleep but you are conscious of them now in your waking state. Continue in that state in which you were not afficted by them. That is to say, when you are not aware of the world, its suffering do not affect you. When you remain as the Self, as in sleep, the world and its suffering will not affect you. Therefore look within. See the Self! Then there will be an end of the world and its miseries. 

Q: But that is selfishness

A: the world is not external. Because you identify yourself wrongly with the body you see the world outside, and its pain becomes apparent to you. But they are not real. Seek the reality and get rid of this unreal feeling.
