“Rules for being human.
From ancient Sanskrit scriptures.
- You are given a body, whether you like it or not, but it is yours for the entire duration.
- You will learn lessons, You are enrolled in a full-time informal school called ‘life’ Every day at this school you are given the opportunity to learn lessons. You can like the lessons or think they are unnecessary and stupid.
- There are no mistakes, only lessons, Growth is a process of falling, getting up, and experimenting. The failed experiment is just as much a part of the process as the experiment that does work.
- A lesson is repeated until it is learned, A lesson is presented to you in various forms, until you have learned it; only then can you start the next lesson.
- Learning lessons has no end, there is no part of life that has no lessons; if you live, there are lessons to learn.
- ‘There’ is not better than ‘here’, If your ‘there’ has become a ‘here’, a new ‘there’ appears that seems better than here.
- Others are mirrors of you, You cannot love or hate something in another, unless it reflects something of yourself that you hate or love.
- What you make of your life is up to you, You have all the tools and resources you need; what you do with them is up to you. The choice is yours.
- The answers are within you, The answers to life’s questions are within you; all you have to do is look, listen, and trust
