| People can be devided into two categories. The ones in the first
category don�t ask questions; they simply live their lives,
quietly, or, better said, they accept life manifest itself � with
all its events � in their passive beings. The ones in the second
category ask questions about life, trying to make a sense out of it.
It often happened to me to ask myself whether this is really
"the best of all the possible worlds in the universe" �
or not. And I used to do so because everything around me seemed to
be the opposite of this famous quote.
I�ve been looking up in books � turning over the pages of
more than a library.
I�ve been looking up in life � in every little event life
allowed happening to me.
I�ve received answers from both. Answers, but not The Answer;
both expressed, in their own way, a lot of truths, but not The
Truth; both offered solutions, but not The Solution.
Sahaja Yoga has been a sort of a revelation. First of all,
because here I could find the most coherent and organized
�Weltanschauung�, expressed in a simple and profound philosophy;
a philosophy that helped me see the world as a whole, as a Great
Being. Then, because it helped me discover my inner world � with
both its good and bad parts; it taught me to accept the good parts
without pride, and to sincerely wish to correct the bad parts.
The most important thing in Sahaja Yoga is that the truth you
discover about you and about the world becomes a part of your bing;
it expresses through your own being in your thought or behavoiur.
The truth once accepted in your heart, models your whole being.
That�s why moral values and qualities like Justice, Generosity
etc. are living things, not only simple words in a dictionary.
Sahaja Yoga made me understand that if one really wanted to
change the world one should start by transforming human beings. And
the first being to be transformed should be � you.
