Sculpting The Inner Self To Change Outer World
It was a well destined meeting with a close relative. I still have that memory crystal clear in my mind. Though I
was meeting the person for the first time, I was eager to meet him as I had heard a lot about him and his
changed approach to life.
I had heard of how that person had evolved into a spiritual thought-provoking personality from a regular person.
Talking to him made me aware of one apparent thing that he was very comfortable with his own self. He was at
complete peace with his inner being. He was connected to his real self, so much that his presence could make
any person feel comfortable to talk and interact with him.
You might have noticed that sometimes to talk to some people, we need to make an extra effort to
communicate; while some have a welcoming behavior and we feel like talking more and more to those. This is
nothing but their peace within them and with that they make the other person also feel peaceful inside.
It’s interesting to understand the perspective of a person who felt and lived so many facets of happy and sad
living and has evolved as an altogether a different being. This might more particularly fascinate those who really
want to work on their inner worth and being and that’s the reason I preferred to share this experience.
An inner being is the real you within self. You might tell this world anything about yourself but the inner being understands you in true sense. The inner self of yours is one who is as honest to you as a mirror, provided you want to listen.
A person, who is known to have evolved, has started to listen to himself by accepting his own self as a complete package with all the strengths and weaknesses given by the divine. A person who moves towards self actualization is one who believes that God has done a perfect job by making him and now it’s his job to
have honest gratitude to God by being his true self.
Every idea that person talks about changes along with the way the person starts looking at life. A simple
rude response of another person which used to make him go crazy and annoyed for days is found to have no effect on him, if the same happens now.
• So then what has changed?
• Have the people changed in response?
• Have they improved from being rude to being polite?
• Has anything changed in the event?
There is no change in the event but there are two apparent changes within a person who handles the event,
which can be noticed:
• The way he started taking others’ responses
• The way he started choosing his responses
If we are peaceful, joyous and cheerful within we don’t mind others talking differently than what we expect
from them. But then, if we are not so peaceful, joyous and cheerful we get affected very easily from what others
do to us.
The point I am trying to make is that everything inside is responsible for any response that we give.
We remain unaware that the correction has to be done internally and that correcting anything externally will not
be of any use.
We see people changing amazingly by making just one change in their life to always take care of their inner
being. Once the inner being is happy and not dependent for its cheerfulness on anything outside, the state of
mind of a person will be same towards every situation.
As we accept our opinions and behavior which is weird sometimes, we start accepting other peoples’ behavior and opinions also with the same peace and happiness.
The mistake people make is that they keep on telling others what is required to change. Ideally the correction
should be of the thoughts within, so that the inner being is happy regardless of outside world. Once this is done
nothing else needs to change. Everything else changes for a person who wants to see the world differently.
World becomes different experience for a person who wants his world to be different and amazing.
Because-
“We are responsible to take care of our inner being and keep it happy and peaceful regardless of outside
events and people around us…..
“Life is a wonderful experience….
Provided……
…..You start finding wonder within yourself as a Being.”
