One Person Can Change The World

-

Paradigm is a model of reality that we consider as Truth. There are two possible paradigm to view your existence. Each paradigm creates new set of actions, new experiences and new results.

Paradigm # 1 : You Are Your Body. This is a familiar, social accepted paradigm. Everyone knows it. It is practical, immediately accessible, intuitive and experienced here and now.

Most of the time, we consider ourselves independent, separate and disconnected entity. We consider it a matter of pride that we are not dependent on anyone. We insulate ourselves from other people. One's ability to live in self-created bubble is considered as a measure of success. We like to think that we can remain aloof, disconnected and live life as we want.

Our shared social reality informs us that physical location and physical parameters of our body is the size & scope of our existence. Everyone thinks, acts and behaves under this fundamental assumption: You Are Your Body.

Early on, society programs us to believe that our existence is limited to length & breadth of our body. If we can somehow, place our body in some secure & comfortable place, we can survive!

We are taking actions all the time. Most of our actions are designed to ensure survival and comfort of the body.

Earning money, hankering for success, approval, desire to get higher status looks natural and obvious in this paradigm.

Paradigm# 2 : You Are The World. This sounds unfamiliar, mystical, woo-doo idea. One cannot imagine one's self as the whole world!

However, reality is different. We are all connected. We may not like it. That does not change the fact.

According to media reports, on Sunday 17-Nov-2019, 57-years old shrimp seller went to local seafood market and got infected with Coronavirus Covid-19. This unsuspecting, simple shrimp seller accidentally put the world on hold!

One action is having impact on the whole world.

For a moment, consider/imagine/speculate - You Are REALLY whole world. Your actions will have impact on the whole world. You can change the world.

Come on...it may look hard in the beginning to think in this manner. Habit will force you to think that you are enclosed in the body, defined by your family, career, work, success and several other attributes.

Give it a try...Imagine that you are connected to the whole world. You are the world. For example, every part of your body is YOU. Similarly, take a view that every part of the world is YOU. Include everybody and everything as YOU. You are encompassing everything. For example, you are the reader - you are the laptop - you are the words you read - everything is simply you.

Speculate what actions will occur as natural & obvious?

If everyone is part of your existence, can you hate anyone? can you remain upset with anyone?

If everything is part of you, is anything ugly?

In this new paradigm,

What is your experience?

What actions look natural and obvious to you?

What is important for you?

Discover in your own experience that if you change your paradigm, you can create new actions, new results and new reality.

Share your discovery.
