Why nonviolence is so foreign to human beings?

---

 

Humans, although two-legged animals, possess higher consciousness than lower animals.

But man is the most messy animal of all animals. He can open his jaw and bite another living creature with either teeth, words, hands or feet. Wrapped with his uncontrollable anger, human can grit his teeth and attack or kill another living creature in his short or long insanity. With his hands, which are directly connected with his heart, he can create many things.

On the other side are lower animals. They cannot go on vacation or shopping (alone) but they can unconditionally show love, trust, commitment, respect. They can create many things in their own language. But lower animals can’t hurt themselves. Only people with their thoughts can do it.

However, this entire website is not about how to become good animal but how to organize messy thoughts and to expand the consciousness, together with nonviolence.

One can choose what one wants to be.

Not hurting own self or other living beings mentally or physically means choosing not to be violent. Words and deeds are like a boomerang and going back will cut many others and hearts and outcomes. It’s an unmistakable thing.

Nonviolent communication, a therapy found in the 60s, is today popular more than ever. Through therapy, one man tries to teach another how to correct his violent thoughts, speeches, and actions. But, do we need such therapies if our hearts are closed?

It’s like running in a circle.

We should practice heart-opening no matter how our family or society has been or is still cruel to us. When the heart is open there is no room for violent thoughts and words. With an open heart and united thoughts-words-deeds we are not afraid of ourselves or others.

Why we do not put nonviolence in this way: may all who you love be like the sun when it rises in its strength?

How do you feel when someone is talking to you with a pointed finger at you?

And, if you point your finger at someone, what do you want from that person?

When a man points his finger at another man he wants to sell him something. He wants to put him under control, the threat, the guilt, to shift some of the blame to another. But, what all that for? What do finger pointers want to sell to others?

We should explore our own weaknesses and complexes before pointing our finger at someone.

 

Nowadays, you can see a lot of marketers advertising their products using the same technique using the same voice color and the same index finger. Interestingly, more and more young people are repeating such a movement. Even some young women who tell us on youtube how to make a cake use the same color of that merchant-singing voice pointing to the audience.

We should change that school because no one likes to point their finger at it. In addition, three fingers are turned inside out and pointing back, be that a cake or person.

 

In the country where I grew up, pointing to someone reveals the lowest culture and the worst family education. It makes me laugh when I remember how great the fight was that way of controlling the finger of us, little children.

Whether one performs Yoga postures, breathing exercises, whether one is shouting at others (loud or in himself it is the same) or using others to heal own fears, unprocessed emotions and raw feelings, such actions always end in one’s  own pain. There are many natural laws about this and one of them is the principle of Action and Reaction and the law of Cause and Affection.

Everything is connected.

Nonviolence is something that can be overcome.

People with a psychological disorder called narcissism are said to be cancer of the society.

There are many reasons why people are narcissists, one of the main causes that feeds on this disorder of the human psyche is the huge lack of love in their parents’ home and later throughout their lives.

Narcissists live in their miserable, empty world and they can see only themselves. They choose neither mean nor people to cover their psychological holes, and they can be very aggressive, a real disease for the whole environment. They have no feelings for others. These people’s brains themselves have a couple of disorders and there is simply no way to cure these holes.

 

 

Change Your Approach

Narcissists live in their world and do not think they have a psychological disorder.

Without regret and with a lot of willpower, you should detach your head from identifying with these people and give your best to get rid of these cancers as soon as possible, because there is no way, no cure, no means to repair a damaged narcissist brain.

Whether you are involved with your thoughts and emotions or separated from them, narcissists will still be narcissists.

Practicing any Yoga, pranayama, asana and meditation are your best support for endless calm, ease, uprightness.

In millions of yoga classes today, very interestingly, people hurt themselves. This happens because the ego of these self-inflicted people while practicing yoga is very strong and they cannot bear the fact that others are better than themselves. This missed sense of practicing yoga is common to both men and women, though all yoga classes in the West are generally more attended to by women. Men in the West rarely go to yoga because of their spirit. This new age, though, is the age of pumping muscle fibers not spirit.

Even some yoga instructors in the West are getting herniated disc, broken tendons or other injuries. People in the West are pushing themselves very often too hard in the name of yoga even though life always gives them a choice.

Practicing pranayama, asana and meditation is extremely helpful, but these practices are not for everyone though. One can practice different Yogas.

There is really no need for violence and force.

Whatever you decide to practice, firstly prepare yourself to embrace your own body, intelligence, weakness and your own beauties.

And practice nonviolence, first and foremost towards yourself.

Such inner emotional, loving, mental and physical harmony gives birth to nonviolence towards everything that surrounds the human.

Nonviolence is an ancient message and in Sanskrit it is called Ahimsa.
