In my last blog and mind map, it showed all of the negative side of the human condition. It pointed out all that leads to destruction and suffering. But before I show you the positive side, there are a few facts we must keep in mind. The Buddha discovered that all suffering derived from 5 main points i.e. fear, greed, ego, desire and power.
Fear: Because of fear we accept violence To defeat fear, we must become brave
Greed: Because of greed we are selfish To defeat greed we must become kind
Ego: Because of ego we destroy. To defeat ego we think of others first
Desire: Because of desire we are in constant need. To defeat desire we must respect all and treat all as equal
Power: Because of power we dominate To defeat power we must learn to help and share power. We must not abuse it

Each day remember what you are:
I am a child of the way
I am a child of the conscious light
I am a child of being
I am a child of the heavens
I am a child of the universe
I am a child of the earth
I am a child of learning
I am a child of universal thought
I am a child of expansion
I am a child of light – human and earthly
Universal and consciousness
