the survival of the ordinary, the "backward" cultures--teach WISDOM.I have
gone back to simple families in humble circumstances, and each tiime, they elevated me as a Atithi Devo Bhava (guest as God) and elevated their own relationship with the universe that Wall Street and Bollywood cannot compete with for real value. Yes, teach us lessons of evolution and humility Ash. Aaap ki Jai ho!~ Atma Swaroop Sivohum Sivohum. Shanthi Amen

Re: This is great, Ash_Pradan
Yes TAPS..all the great avatars, Christ, Gandhi, taught us humility..yet, we quickly forget in today's me first world..even on his cross Jesus said "Forgive them Father, for they know not what they do"..Gandhi humbly refused to obey the British, yet did it within their own law, and when acquitted simply asked for cabfare back home in compensation..can you imagine this kind of humility & forgiveness anywhere in the world today ?..Anyway, I firmly believe that so long as us ordinary folks live by the Lord's law, so called leaders may come & go, but ultimately this world shall belong to the humble !! Blessings - Ash

Re: Everyone is evolving...so good to remember to never forget this...
Yes Mysteria, I especially experienced this during the past 20+ yrs while raising my younger daughter as a single dad..in retrospect, I'm convinced that it was God's way of teaching me some humility while leading a high-roller corporate life surrounded by superegos..Bless - Ash

This is great, Ash_Pradan
Too often it is necessary to eat one's words or to pull ones foot out of one's mouth.
