Why things fail before they even get started

The first fundamental rule for transformation is, one must go beyond the desire to make one the centre of all. One must acknowledge there is something more than oneself.

If you really observe, people go out and make an active effort to confirm their prejudice, to confirm because it feels safe. This is what I know. What is beyond my known feels like something challenging.

This isolative movement denies the possibility there’s anything more than them, and if at all something more comes into being, they feel attacked, destroyed.

So we first begin by deeply contemplating this, learning this — how am I limiting everything to me? How am I limiting everything to my mind, to my perception, to my past? By that, I myself will not allow anything more, and by doing so I am trapped.

Make your notes, study, explore, think it through and see how you are a victim to this.
