To effect any change, you need a positive attitude



The friendship, the animosity, the relationship, the work culture and the various ideas and the beliefs which we have  and the principles and the creed that we hold to continue the said activities are sometimes so rigid and not flexible, we need to effect a change. We need to ponder on these subjects very closely because the stagnation evolves for these unscrupulous activities. Many times our rigidity, stubbornness and less flexible attitude have made us to create this world a monstrous one full of conflicts, hardship and  perpetual sufferings. As a routine, we accept all these happenings without much deliberation and introspection. We continue and prefer to remain  in this sequence of living continuously. We never question and raise any doubt against this system of society’s attitude and we are not bothered to enquire into the necessity of a revolution, which is a must to make  radical changes, if we need to encourage a meaningful existence. This revolutionary concept is neither related to any economical nor to  politics, but it is much more related to fundamental and basic principles. Unless these fundamental things get amended and there is a desireness to bring a change in the standard pattern of taking the things granted, there will be no effective changes possible whatsoever may be the efforts. You cannot go into the depth of any subject or any kind of your or society’s decision, if your mind is prejudiced with a certain belief.  Your inquisitiveness will not be blossomed unless you are  keeping aside your biases and dogmas. The human beings are not that incapable of acquiring and arrive at a conclusion against any problem, but they are not able to do so, because they are very much attached to the things, which they perform regularly. Or mentally, they are convinced that let the things be done in the way it was done. In short, they are not interested to make changes. Because of this chaotic situation of mental pattern, we are not able to observe the world with a fresh, young and innocent mind and the things remain not so appealing  outwardly. 

When you are determined enough and gather all your courage to change things for the benefit of self and the society, for which you were scared earlier or not that virtuous, you can find out the truth in each and every reality related to effective living.  If you are able to closely observe each and everything very closely, which is not only confined to mechanical or technical aspects, but also dictate to the relationship between the people, you will assert that a change is inevitable and for which you cannot deny any actions.  When you observe that your world is denying freedom, your thoughts and your progress for which your society cannot debar and you are observing how people are making groups between one another, some kind of rebellion thoughts would crop up in your mind.  Our society, at large, has a controlling power of our mind, shapes our hearts, our plan of actions irrespective of whether you belong to a Hindu, Christian or Muslim.  Despite your inclination to follow any creed like communism or Christianity, society with its own structural formation changes the mind of every human being either consciously or unconsciously. The traditional upbringing and culture in which we live and grow shapes our thoughts. This cultural process is very much linked to religion, politics, social and status symbols, which deeply influence the process of decision making of ours. When you are completely suffocated in this atmosphere, you question the authenticity of the truth behind the society’s influence and you start doubting on the structure of the society itself.  We are always in a mood to find out the different types of actions and our minds, encourage the same and for that matter, every human being desires to be an individual entity. To express thoughts freely, it is not at all a faulty decision. We should not be slaves to the rules of the society and follow the same blindly.

Society develops a relationship. This type of structure is based on socio-political influence, muscle-power, ambition, greed, envy,  ego, eagerness to defeat others in all the social games and all these things that a man had set up in his life to show his authoritative presence in a particular society. The fact is that God, your guru, your saints, your religious books, your desire to grow with a strict moral code of conduct through which you continue to survive in your life is so many times trampled by your wrong doings, dishonesty, extraordinary greediness, jealousy and zeal for more wealth and position and ultimately, you always get tempted  to achieve many things using the above less morally defined behaviors. You cannot start to show your thoughts with respect to the religious upliftment unless you alter your these desires or in a position to break these shackles. The religious upliftment or revolution is not concerned with reaction at all.  It is mainly related to ascertaining a fact, to analyze the same and destroy those facts if the same give you more encouragement to follow the wrong qualities, namely dishonesty, anger, envy, jealousy, over ambition, nepotism, giving undue favors to others. When your mind can curb these wrong qualities, there will be a religious revolution. You should not misconstrue this fact finding mission as an idea to search God, which is altogether a different aspect. If you want to foresee a new type of society, you must have a new frame of mind, which needs to be created by you and me and other members of any society.   The ordinary and the common proletariat of the society only can make see-through changes.  It is we have to bring about a mutation in our attitude. When our mind is completely calm and free from any old prejudiced thoughts, which  mostly provokes antagonism, it is only that time, we can think to make any radical and effective changes in our society.  Then our mind and heart can go far away into the realms that are beyond any measurement of three dimensions of time, try and trace.  Reaching this stage, you can think of an effective change  in the pattern of living and influence others to follow the change for their betterment.
