Yet
bell that tolls for another, also tolls for thee.
Why do we act in a way that injures others?
It is because we feel a deep void inside of us and we lash out like a wounded animal. We relate to
world from
wounds of apathy, grief, fear, lust, anger, and pride. By striking out, however, we only deepen our own anguish. Although we are only trying to survive, we achieve only more peril.
A spiritual person, however, comes from a completely different perspective. He or she is motivated by feelings of courage, acceptance, and peace.
What does
spiritual path have to do with good psychology? Everything. A sound mind in a sound body.
Can
spiritual path be defined in an even simpler way? Yes. It can be defined as love.
When you love, love, love--you'll be happy, healthy, wealthy, and wise.
The opposite of grief, misery, and unending travail is
spiritual path. While many disciplines may lead to it,
heart will show you
way. Once we shed our habitual narcissism, then
way to courage, acceptance, and peace becomes possible.
