Tshamoya<br><br>The quote is by Swami

Sivananda:<br><br>'Reform yourself. Let the rest of the world reform

itself.'<br><br>This idea has had several implications for me. First,

it reminds me that my task in life is to remove the

filters to Self-Realization placed by the ego, the senses

and by the conditioning of parents, government,

friends, gender, workplace, religion, and community. So,

it continually brings me back to the Raja Yoga

path.<br><br>Second, it reminds me that those with whom I interact

have similar conditionings. It is most satisfying when

I interact with anyone with our mutual

conditionings in mind. This usually involves compassion, viveka

and vairagya. <br><br>Thirdly, it reminds me that

other people must be allowed to follow their own karmic

influences but that it is not necessary for me to be part of

that process. Consequently, for someone, such as

Omboy, who is determined to wallow in his filtered view

of reality, it is best to follow your advice and

neither read nor respond to his posts until things cool

down and the barrage of posts from him slows down to a

more reasonable level, assumes a more reasonable tone

and has more reasonable/informative

content.<br><br>Omprem
