THIS SHIFT IN THINKING WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE | Shi Heng Yi

It's the world that tells you you're not enough, but if you see it like this, there's some peace inside of you. The incompleteness is not happening by nature. What's something you judge people for, even though you know you shouldn't? I don't. Have you struggled with that before, or is that something that happens to you occasionally? There is maybe something I dislike, or where I think I would do it differently, but very, very quickly, what always, what my internal dialogue tells me then again, before I would say, or before I would go into judgment, what helps me always is to remember, I don't know what is that person, or what did this person went through? What's the past of this person? What did that person experience? And sometimes the way how people behave, like I said, is not because they consciously choose. It's because they have lived a certain way of life, been exposed to different things in the past, which has shaped them. So sometimes people are the way they are, not because they wanted to, but because they subconsciously were so strong, and they just slipped into this circumstance, and now maybe unfortunately don't find the strength yet to come out of it. But there's nothing to judge. This is not about bad person, good person. This is just about okay. This is how life and everything that this life involves has taken form in one being, and we have human-wise 8 billion, and animal-wise way more. None is better than the other. We are all shaped by our circumstances, and this is where this idea comes from, why the development of understanding, of compassion sometimes is truly the key to okay. Because the other way, even though maybe it's a fantasy, but just imagine you would just be surrounded by people that are completely like blissed out all the time, really joyful, really happy, in their full energy, really bright. If you are surrounded by such people, who would even come up with the idea of doing something naughty, of doing something bad? No, I think it wouldn't happen. All this negative thoughts, all of this is coming up because people are not blissed out, because people are not happy with where they are. They are in an unhappy state. They don't like this unhappy state. It's really difficult to point the finger on yourself, so therefore, you need somebody to blame. You need somebody to put your unhappiness upon, and it seems to be like you're the one right now in reach, so you're gonna be the guilty one right now. This is how it is. It's not nice, it's not fair, it's the way how it is, but if you see it like this, there's some peace inside of you. You don't take things personally anymore too much, because anybody who would be in your place would have received that load of critics and negativity. People just need sometimes a valve to bring it out, but again, why? Because their baseline is unhappiness, and now the question again, always the same, unhappiness because of what? Because they are not the ones they feel like being or they want to become, but it's again the question, how can God create a being incomplete? How come God puts you on the world and puts me here, and now we have to develop ourselves in order to become someone? I don't know. That doesn't make sense to me that God is putting someone, something incomplete into this world. Why would he do this? Why would it be like this? No, the incompleteness is not happening by nature. The incompleteness is happening with the mind that is fluctuating and grasping upon thoughts and ideas that in this world are being propagated. It's the world that tells you you're not enough. It's the media that tells you you're not enough. It is the constant comparison that makes you feel not enough, but in the same way of how this type of ideas are being propagated in the world, everything is always in balance. If the one side gets stronger, another side gets stronger as well. It is always in balance, and this is the reason why the more some part of this society is going into becoming more and more superficial, in the same amount you have other people at the same time rising to become very, very aware of themselves, just balancing out everything.
