RE: Stop the Blame Game: The Secret to Taking Control of Your Success [ENG-URDU]
Recently I went to the largest Buddhist temple in the world Bodabudur temple. I'm not Buddhist but I had to smile at some of the teachings the guide told me on the tour. One was this :
Dhammapada (verse 50) says: “Let one not seek the faults of others, nor what others have done or left undone. But let one see one's own acts, done and undone.”
It is so easy to look at others and cast blame. The problem is that it doesn't lead to self reflection and trying to find answers on a path forward.
Sure, governments and society can really screw over the people. Guess what? Nothing new there, it has been happening for as long as there have been governments. As you said the unsuccessful feel entitled and think "The government should make me successful" but the successful people think "How can I work around the system to make a path forward for myself".
In the same way you can be lost in a forest and think "This forest will kill me" which accomplishes absolutely nothing. Or you can think "This forest presents an obstacle, how do I use it to my advantage or at least not let it defeat me". Only one of those viewpoints is useful.
Thanks for writing,
Good job.
OMG, I have been watching all sorts of Buddha anime, basically all animes, not just Buddha ones.
'Enlightenment of Buddha / The Laws of the Sun'
The quotes you mentioned and many more are in different Buddha animes. I am aware that you watch anime, so if you ever feel nostalgic, you should deep dive back into this category.
This reminded me of something funny I want to laugh at. People ask me what will happen if Binance is banned in Pakistan, and I tell them my P2P business will shine!
It is very positive of me to think that if Binance is gone, it is an opportunity and not a loss. I do not want it to happen, but I also do not fear such things.
Yeah. Canada has no Binance so I don't miss it. Fear though? Fear is only useful in helping people plan... if you let it cause you to lose sleep or if it paralyzes you...not useful.
As for anime, yeah, I love anime even now (although it is a little childish but if I laugh I don't care). I'll keep "Enlightenment of Buddha" on my radar :) Although you may want to avoid "Oh my Buddha" it is kind of ... well... use your judgement ;)
