Reading the Bhagvad Gita (as it is) I was taught the lesson once again about the importance of having our carnal self under some sort of supervision as it were. It is like a little spoiled child who if the parent does not say no to goes on to demanding (not even asking) what it wants with no regards to what it might do to the family. Who is the deciplinarian in your family? how often do you tell yourself "NO" when you desire to eat stuff your mind knows is not good for you? or desiring objects way out of your budget just because you want it? who runs the ship in your world?
I am really trying to keep my usual positive and hopeful attitude towards our humanity and mankind in general, but recent events have brought the old anger back in me which is really frustration and anxiety about Politicians and the money mongers of the world about which I can take no real action of any significance. I see hunger and destitude in the masses of this U.S. of A, the richest country on earth, I see the very weak and the elderly, the homeless and the hard working class suffer while the political will of some nuts is runnning amock! God help me to accept what I can change and that over which I have no control, and please God give me the wisdom to know the difference. It is nothing new, just different land, different time in the history of the ignorant man and the greed of the fools!
