"Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it.
Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and
rumored by many.
Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written
in your religious books.
Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your
teachers and elders.
Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed
down for many generations.
But after observation and analysis, when you find that
anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and
benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it."

~ Buddha

With 6 billion people on earth, there's plenty to be said and plenty to be heard.
Yes, do not believe in anything simply because someone's saying it and you
happen to hear it. Don’t be afraid to question and seek your own answers and
truth.

We also tend to believe that if the majority is doing or believing in something, then
it must be right, there must be some truth around it.

It stems out from a basic fear of survival. No one wants to stand in front of a
overwhelming majority of people and tell them they are wrong. We are social
beings and we depend on one another for our survival. No one wants to be left
alone or cast away.

When we follow the majority, we feel accepted and validated. We feel safe
following a proven path because success is almost assured. We don’t have to re-
invent the wheel and duplicate efforts. It also becomes easier to play the blame
game if something goes wrong. We can shrug off any responsibility.

But you know what, the majority need not be right always. Listen to your heart and
follow your heart.

OUND WRITTEN IN YOUR RELIGIOUS BOOKS.R E L I G I O U S B O O K S .

Religious books are interpretations of an individual or a group of individuals.


Interpretations depend on many factors - the age and time, the prevalent culture
and norms, the consciousness/awareness and perception of the individuals
involved.

Interpretations are interpretations - they are not the Absolute Truth. The Absolute
Truth is a sum total of all possible interpretations present in all the religious books
in the world and beyond...

Don’t take everything you read for granted or as Absolute Truth. If it's not
resonating with you, then it's not meant for you. That's perfectly alright. Don’t give
up. Keep seeking and you'll find what you want.

Your teachers and elders are individuals with their own perception (based on their
past experiences and their belief systems), level of awareness and consciousness.
If their teachings and words of wisdom do not resonate with you, then don’t
despair. It doesn't mean they are wrong and you are right or vice versa. Their
beliefs and teachings may have worked for them but it's not necessary that they'll
work for all. Seek your own truth and you shall find it.

The older generation wants to preserve and pass on the traditions of their nation,
culture, community, religion, family, etc. to the younger generation. The younger
generation absorbs some of these traditions, discards some traditions, adds new
traditions and passes on a modified set of traditions to the next generation. This
cycle has continued through the ages. It has been the cause of many a conflict
between generations and we are aware of the famous and all too common
"generation gap".

People who treaded a certain path, a path that worked for them, leave guidelines
and best practices. These become traditions over time. Traditions are not carved
on stone. Just because they worked at a certain time for a certain people does not
necessarily mean that they'll work for ever. History is sufficient proof that traditions
have always evolved and changed with times.

Do not hold on to traditions and rituals just because that's the way it's always been
done. Understand the intentions behind the traditions and rituals and check if the
intentions resonate with you. Just following the traditions and rituals blindly may
not truly serve the purpose they are meant to serve.

If what you are doing or believing is not serving you or the good and benefit of one
and all, then it's time to take stock of your thoughts, feelings, intentions, beliefs,
values and life in general.

Don’t take everything you read or hear for granted. Don’t despair and give up if
someone or something does not resonate with you. Do not follow traditions and
rituals blindly without understanding the intentions behind them.

Challenge beliefs that are not serving your purpose. Confront your fears, don’t let
fears rule your life. Be open to shift and expand your perception.

Listen to your heart. Follow your heart. Seek wisdom within you. Inquire and
question and you'll get your answers. Be your own authority.

You are a spiritual being and at the center of your being, you have all the answers
you seek. You are a unique expression of the Spirit and you are on this planet to

express and experience your greatness and to help others express and experience
their greatness.

You are part of the Infinite Spirit and so is every life and lifeless form around you.
In that respect, we are all connected. You have to respect their existence and right
to life as much your own.

Choose your thoughts, intentions, values, beliefs wisely that they may serve you
and in turn help you to create value to others when you serve them - and
understand in living so, you'll grow, flourish and prosper. What doesn't serve you,
won't serve others and what doesn't serve others won't serve you.
