You may have everything in the world but if you don't have peace then you don't have anything. And as much as we want it peace cannot be brought in the market and neither can you order it online. So where do we go to find peace?
Have you ever wondered why Buddhist monks seem to be so peaceful? Why do they never seem tensed no matter what? There is a simple reason for this, they don't follow certain rules of living that we do.
We all know that Buddha had everything going for him. He was the crown prince. No luxury was new to him and there was nothing that he couldn't acquire. He had ample opportunities in life where he could accumulate as much stuff as his heart desires. Yet he chose to leave it all behind him?
The simple principle that makes life easy for them is a whole new philosophy which revolves around the basic idea of reducing suffering. Now the question is how can we reduce suffering from our lives? As tough as it may seem like in the starting this very philosophy will lead you to higher happiness in life.
First and foremost we need to learn to accept change. You need to learn to understand that the only constant in life changes.Everything changes, people, circumstances, seasons, your age and even your fortunes. The less you hold onto this the better it will be for you.
Next, a wise man once said that life isn't happening between your ears, it's happening now. So stop over thinking and learn to live in the moment. Stop revealing on what happened in the past or what will occur in the future. Stop planning and start living.
Thirdly, believe in the concept of simple living and high thinking. Simply your life and get rid of the material trapping from it as much as possible. You will be surprised to see how much of a difference these little changes make for you.
Next up, learn to give. Stop putting yourself first in every given situation. Help out people as much as and as many times as you can. You will see the stark difference it makes. By helping others you will find a deeper satisfaction in life.
Another Buddhist habit that we need to pick up, be open to taking advice from people who are far more experienced than you are. You elders have so much to teach you, the life lessons they teach you are the gems you can never find anywhere.
Accept people for who they are. Stopping analyzing and deconstructing what they said. Take in everything that someone is saying without analyzing what they are saying or not saying to you.
And more importantly, meditate. It may seem hard at first but let me tell you it gets better with time. Meditation is a way to get one will your inner self. It helps you attain a sense of calm.
