Jules: Any Self Transformation Tips which I could really use? Mr OWO: How important do you think knowledge is in shaping a person? Jules: I guess it is probably the most important thing. Mr OWO: Here is what Sivananda has to say - "Kindness brings its own reward. Conduct is one's own behavior towards others in daily life. The sum total of one's virtues forms one's character. It is character that gives real force and power to man. They say, "Knowledge is power" but the wise man says "Character is power". Without character the attainment of knowledge is impossible. A man of character is expected to be kind, merciful, truthful, forgiving and tolerant. Jules: So it is back to self transformation. I have a long list of virtues which I need to work on starting from: Humility Forgiving Charity Kindness Compassion Non harming Self control Love Patience .... Mr OWO: So you can keep reading and gathering knowledge and not get anywhere being a better person. You need two other essential ingredients - remembering to practise and awareness. The practice makes a habit of the virtues you want to cultivate while in awareness you are constantly asking yourself in an objective sense how you are progressing in your self transformation journey. So now you have some idea on what you need to be successful with self transformation, keep practising. Jules: As always, thank you for the Self Transformation Tips.Posted 1 year ago #
