When you let your problems vie your energies, the solution is let your values help you attain uilibrium of mind. Let good values efine your decisions. Lives is a complex phenomenon and are all faced with moments of coblems in our personal and professional lives that require us to make decisions but often we end up without solving problems with good values. If e don't know what we stand for and here we're headed, then we’re wasting ur time doing something we don't need be doing. By taking this shaky path, e may languish in trouble because we’d not let our lives be guided by values. beyond limitations The Bhagwad Gita asks us to follow aloes for good decision making and to realise a better life beyond limited horizons. First, self-obsession is tantamount to demanding respect, rather than earning it. Nothing of value comes without it being earned. Second, self-glorification is deceptive imagination of mind. Third, non-violence by thought, word or deed to any being, must be avoided. Fourth, we are all children of the universe, each individual is unique in character and everyone is special in his own way. Never expect anything from others; and learn to accommodate others. Every incident of anger, outburst or jealousy is not about the person but the reaction. Fifth, duality of thought and action create confusion. Synchronise thoughts and actions to reflect non-duality. Sixth, observe external and internal cleanliness. Externality has its benefits to society by way of cleanliness of surroundings and personal hygiene. It creates purity of mind and enriches the soul. Internal cleanliness paves the way to freedom from jealousy, anger, hatred, fear, selfishness, guilt and pride. Overcome ego Seventh, master the whimsical and impulsive mind by knowledge. Knowledge gained must help you overcome worldly allurements. Eighth, shun the ego. Ego is ignorance because it hides self from reality and creates spurious knowledge. Knowledge is not created; it was and will always be there. Ego is a virtual defence but since it is based on illusion and self-deception, it increases our vulnerability to false self-projection. Threats to ego produce anxiety and hostility, its collapse results in self-contempt. In our relationship to the world, there is no room either for ego or self-condemnation. There are wonderful opportunities which must make use of through body and mind vehicles as a source learning. Enjoy the world as a field discovery of knowledge without ego Matter is ephemeral Ninth, nothing is really ours, all possessions are ephemeral. Tenth, anything material has a beginning send. The body has to wither away. Pea given and grief cannot be avoided. Purpose of life, therefore, is to live with it, taste experience, be useful, honourable; be compassionate and well. He who dares to waste one moon time has not discovered life. Life built on good values is efficihealthy and it becomes full of cheer once you overcome the tendency to be idle and lazy. A person who has sublimated the desire for sense gratification, who has overcome all sense of proprietorship and is devo false ego, can alone attain real peace values drive decisions; let values be of virtue and free of vices and let good values define our lives.
