I'm putting in some interesting emails about what we call "carefully" - the use of consciousness as a means to unite and help others. I am pleasantly "steal" its "social commitment in Buddhism" - which is essentially the same thing, but the Buddhist ceremony, and some Buddhist terms of engagement.
I like the idea of taking what we learn about ourselves, our response and our world and then get out there to visit more meaningful and more purpose and determination.
But no attention is brand? pack their own will, without a Buddhist? I think so. I do not think that the label carefully NEEDS. Maybe not quite what pure consciousness? We do not need to connect it with anything? And is not it ironic that seems to be related to Buddhism, which is its basic principle the idea that attachment leads to suffering?
Sure, it makes no difference whether you call it "engaged in supervision 'or something else. Since the intentional? Do good deeds? Digging? Give back? Paying forward? You Workin'? When it comes simply to learn more about yourself and others offer the best, the language does not matter. Use what suits you.
themselves as Buddhists do not own the trademark on "mindfulness" or "compassion", Christians have not granted exclusive rights to "service" or "charity." And the association of Islam with "fanaticism" is an unfortunate association of religion with one of the most fundamental features - intolerance.
Muslims do not own intolerance - is worldwide. Read your local paper or just attend a major sporting event to see how we can upset every time we have an us-versus-them mentality. We all have the capacity for extremism and we must take responsibility for our own intolerance.
Simplicity.
Compassion.
Generosity.
Tolerance.
In a culture of brand awareness as ours, it is curious how often we label our most basic qualities and coincident with religions, political parties, or even the possession without thinking. Here's an idea: go generic. Want to have compassion? Very good!
Do - and not waste time shopping t-shirt to bring more compassion. Would you be careful? Cool! Do it - without seeking a guru, withdrawal, or a particular brand-name recognition. Sense of intolerance? You're human. View and find a way to dissolve.
Listen, whether Buddhist or Christian or Muslim (or other) to label helps to be better in a way that feels authentic to you, that's fine. But if you've been shopping and can not find the right brand of goodness of basic human rights to consider going generic. Be aware, compassionate and generous. Period. And to share his own brand of it with the world.
