It is well-known fact that no growth, be it personal, professional, domestic or spiritual, can take place without a peaceful mindset. A peaceful mindset is directly related to our behaviour and attitude and unfortunately not many people bother to check and control them.
These five laws can help one achieve a peaceful state of mind: Do not interfere in other’s matters/business: It is normal human tendency to interfere in other’s matters and offer unasked advice. Irrespective of whether our advice will be welcomed or not and whether we are qualified enough to offer advice or not does not matter to us – we still go ahead and offer advice. This is often found to be annoying to the person, especially when they have not asked for it. Our problem does not end at mere offering of the advice but we even monitor the implementation of our advice and embarrass people and force them to emanate negativity against us.
Do not crave for recognition: It is inherent quality of the humans to constantly crave for recognition for all that they do. This creates an expectation from others and the rule of expectation is that it seldom gets fulfilled; so in the end we get disappointed and dejected.
Do not be jealous of others: Most people are not happy with what they have and they crave for more and more. The focus is always on what they don’t have rather than on what they have; so they tend to be jealous of other people who appear to be better off. The cause for jealousy can be anything from physical looks, intellect, name, fame, richness, house, car, position, etc. This feeling of jealousy keeps one always unhappy and unsettled. We should consciously make effort to not be jealous and instead be happy for what we have and what all others have achieved. We must realise God is not biased in giving somebody less and some others more – but all that depends on individual’s karma.
Grasp the best and leave the rest: All around us we have good and bad people, good and bad things, good and bad situations and it is up to us to grasp everything good and have happiness that leads to growth in one’s personality like a lotus flower which grows amid muddy surroundings and absorbs only what is good for it.
Lastly do not point out shortcomings of other people on a regular basis because this habit of repetitively pointing out faults of other around us for motive of correcting their faults leads to a negative affirmation in other person’s mind and instead of changing for better the other person feels dejected and depressed, leading to strain and stress in the relation between the person and us. So it is advisable not to indulge in repeated fault finding in others.
