Ever been in 🧘♀️ yoga & the person next to you is unaware of the amount of distracting obnoxious sounds they are making?
.
All you can think about the whole class is “WTF? How are they so oblivious?”
.
This is one of the many reasons that spending a weekend at a Buddhist temple should be required learning in school. .
The first thing you are asked to do is to take a vow of silence. No talking, communication of any sort, even writing. .
Limit your interaction with the external world so that you can become more aware of the inner realm.
.
On one of the weekends I had spent in silence at the temple, the Abbot monk was giving a talk and he explained what the vow of silence meant to him. .
He said, when taking a vow of silence, you walk with intention and become aware of every movement you make and its impact on the world.
.
Scientists have termed this phenomena The Butterfly effect. Because they have created formulas that suggest that something as simple as a butterfly flapping its wings on one side of the world could create a series of events in which ultimately lead to a hurricane on the other side of the world. .
I think about this when I am walking in nature and I accidentally step on a root. I wonder the impact I may have made on that tree. I walk with care.
.
I think about the impact that my words have. That words said at the right time can alter someone’s destiny. .
We have all heard stories of that teacher who pulled the student aside and said “I believe in you.” And how those words said at that exact moment empowered that child and ultimately altered their destiny.
.
I even consider the impact that my thoughts have as they become my actions, words etc.
❤️ Choose your words with care you never know when they could be the words that change someones life…
.
❤️Always think thoughts of kindness, compassion and love…anything else is like taking poison…it will slowly kill you from the inside out.
.
❤️always be aware of your impact on the world… walk lightly and smile a lot!

”My wish is that, one day, formal education will pay attention to the education of the heart, teaching love, compassion, justice, forgiveness, mindfulness, tolerance and peace. We must learn that humanity is one big family. We are all brothers and sisters: physically, mentally and emotionally. But we are still focusing far too much on our differences instead of our commonalities.. Intolerance leads to hatred and division. Our children should grow up with the idea that dialogue, not violence, is the best and most practical way to solve conflicts.. But this can become reality only if we educate, not just the brain, but also the heart.." ~The 14th Dalai Lama ❤️
