Dance with the Devil..

Dance with Devil 

I believe everyone is born good  and it is through their journey in life ,they change according to their upbringing,experience, teaching , books , media and influence among the people surrounding them. They will have the good and the bad sides and they will go through life struggling between  both sides in handling the matters facing them whether in society or within themselves. This is the reality in life.

The bad side will support the growth of their own ego while the good side will try to reduce it. An ego is like an internal demon ,working on our emotions  and  controlling our re-actions and actions. In a serious case, they kill and hurt others to achieve what they want.

For some people during their journey through life come to realize that this bad side of him or her has become to pre-dominant and is eating themselves up then take actions to control it or to reduce it.  This is called the awakening of his or her awareness.

There is always  a solution and it remained a choice for the person whether they want to change or not. The treatment could be like a cold turkey treatment for drug abuse cases.But, if they leave their bad side  growing , it will become uncontrollable and it is like letting the mental monkeys jumping all over them and doing or saying things not what they want to say or do.

One of the tools of this inner demon is gossip and caused others to dance to their tune and manipulate the outcome and re-action of the people around them and hurting other people"s life  as a serving to fulfill their ego and re-enforce their inner demon and to serve their own master, the devil in them.

To illustrate this point, Buddha's teaching is "when you turn back , there is a shore ". It means that do drift towards the sea, it will drown you and turn back there is a firm ground for you to return to your goodness which you were born with. Look deep Into our life and we will see with our inner eyes and realization will arise. Build on that realization and the picture in your mind will get clearer and you will realize that it is within you to change for the better. It is your choice to change and  remove the Devil from you. Just train and work on your mind and it will change everything in your life.

Namaste.
