Character review – how to become the perfected human being

Let’s say something really difficult, overwhelming, or troublesome comes into your life, and you first become calm, then you use your self-discipline to go within and reflect upon the situation. Then you look outward, observing the situation with tranquility. As you observe, you are reminded to have a sincere appreciation for all of life. You are reminded that everything in life changes, so you see situations as opportunities to grow and learn, even when they cause suffering and hardship. For we have all had to endure difficult times in our lives. This stepping back and observing gives us an opportunity to discriminate between what is right and what is wrong. With unfathomable faith and belief in ourselves, we make the decision to act from a place of being the perfected human being, true to ourselves, do no harm, and equally disseminate health, happiness, and peace to all. This takes the ability to be objective and to forgive. All of this would require a state of balance, being open and flexible, and a strong grounding within us. These are not easy things to do when faced with difficulties, but if we can do them, we find peace and serenity within ourselves and in the world around us. Let’s work on finding balance, strength, flexibility, and peace. END: Building positive characteristics such as calmness, self-discipline, reflection, tranquility, appreciation, endurance, discriminating between what is right and wrong, unshakable faith and striving to be the perfected human being – true to yourself, do no harm and equally disseminating to all health, happiness and peace will bring balance, openness, strength and peace to our lives. But these are not easy characteristics to build; therefore, we must work at them every day, and that is the practice of Karma. Ego: Flip your palm up and extend your index fingers to form the symbol of the ego. The ego will constantly try to pull you from your center, as it sees most of life as a battle to be won. The ego can also cause you to doubt yourself, leading you to get lost in comparing yourself to others. It causes us to compete, which is meaningless since we are all unique individuals on our own unique journey. Pull your finger in and place your thumb on top – take a breath- this is the symbol of connecting to your soul. The journey of the soul is to work your karma. It's about practicing forgiveness, compassion and understanding, and therefore we strive to become the perfected human being – follow your passion – be true to yourself – do no harm and equally disseminate health, happiness, and peace to all – even your enemies for then you will truly find health, happiness and peace body, mind and soul. Namaste~ may you walk the path of life with health, happiness, and peace. Doctor Lynn http://www.doctorlynn.com
