Remember that you get what you concentrate upon, so if you focus your mind, through worry and stress, on the last thing you want to have happen, you are beginning the creative chain that will turn that focus into a self-fulfilling prophecy. Most of us put our focus on the external, physical world in order to gain dominance and control of it. We seek this power in business, government, relationships and in almost all types of organisations. Those with the wisdom to realise that the physical is, indeed transient, focus internally on the spiritual world and seek the power to live in peace and harmony, good health, abundance and fulfilment without having to control or dominate others. Using physical force is not an option to those with spiritual power.
Real power comes from inner strength and one is content to allow others to be themselves.
I and II, Korea, Vietnam and the Gulf war. Of course, we justify our actions by declaring our loyalty to our country and to our form of government and to our families. One day, perhaps sooner than we realise, we will stop using violence to combat evil, declare ourselves neutral and seek only peaceful solutions to world problems. If we cannot find solutions we might learn, at least, not to interfere.
