The
Rules for Being Human: Handed Down from Ancient Sanskrit
1.
Others are merely mirrors of you. You cannot love or hate
something about another person unless it reflects to you something you love or
hate about yourself.
2.
You will learn lessons. You are enrolled in a full-time,
informal school called life. Each day in this school you will have the
opportunity to learn lessons. You may like the lessons or think them irrelevant
and stupid.
3. A
lesson is repeated until it is learned. A lesson will be presented
to you in various forms until you have learned it. Then you can go on to the
next lesson.
4.
There are no mistakes, only lessons. Growth is a process of
trial and error, experimentation. The “failed” experiments are as much a part
of the process as the experiment that ultimately “works”.
5.
“There” is no better than “here”. When your “there” has
become a “here”, you will simply obtain another “there” that again, looks
better than “here”.
6.
Learning lessons does not end. There is no part of life
that does not contain its lessons. If you are alive, there are lessons to be
learned.
7.
What you make of your life is up to you. You have all the tools and
resources you need; what you do with them is up to you. The choice is yours.
8.
You will receive a body. You may like it or hate it, but it
will be yours for the entire period this time around.
9.
The answers lie inside you. The answers to life’s questions lie
inside you. All you need to do is look, listen and trust.
