"The concept of "deadly sin" introduced the Scriptures. But if you remove the religious aspect, these sins - a gross violation of a healthy way of life and the moral and physical sense. That is "a deadly sin" - it is an action that takes away human health and the years of his life. Laziness* and overeating* - the two most dangerous deadly sin, shortens life. Anger, jealousy, sadness, depression, intolerance - are other "deadly sins" that destroys human." "Everyone lies!" Svetlana Kuzina.
In modern language, and a brief sense of what was said in ancient books is as follows:
- Do not analyze the problems too much, too serious analysis reduces the ability to solve problems. When emotional difficulties, it is useless at all. Continuous analysis leads to depression*.
- Live consciously (realize self-doing, not to live on autopilot), live in the present (don’t worry, no regrets about the past). Now - the best years of your life!
- Do not wait for the approval of others. Do not worry about what others think about us, it will held but with aging. Tying your self-worth to everyone else’s opinions gives you a flawed sense of reality. Others do not think about us*, so we can safely think with your head.
- No anger, no resentment. «Smile - it's all annoying.»
- Do not strive for ideal. Because - perfection has no limits*.
- Do not wait for luck, but do not try to earn all money. Money will come when you will prefer business which will allow you not to think about money. The factors most frequently associated with success in the legal field, such as high income or a partner-track job at a prestigious firm, had almost zero correlation with happiness and well-being*.
- no Excuses, don’t say "no time"
- Do not try to get into the skin of other peoples, don’t judge, don’t look for personal affairs. Just that contains the modern television.
- Do not envy. Unless you're among the Warren Buffetts2014 and Usain Bolts2014 of the world at the very pinnacle of the global pyramid of achievement, no matter how much you and your business flourish, they'll always be others out there doing better than you. (as of 2014*). The modern consumer society makes us kill selves for the love of stuck-up – “Making a splash is better than cash”. Envy does not allow us to be reasonable. Envy - a disease in the society seized upon by comparing yourself with others. As any disease to be treated through the stage of recognition. "...who own what they need and what they need are the necessities of life, not possessions..." . To Have or To Be? - Erich Fromm. During study we are not aware, but con, to brag. On the show, we do not enjoy but shoot to brag. In the job we suffer but not looking for exit, because we are afraid to lose the opportunity to brag. Love and jealousy - the concept is not a single sphere, in a relationship, we are jealous because we are the owners. Happy people think about they have, unhappy - about they don't.
- People were created to be loved, Things were created to be used. The reason the world is in chaos is because " things are being loved and people are being used" - Dalai Lama.
- "There isn’t any indication that any of these things makes anyone any happier; in fact* it seems the reverse may be true."
- "We buy shit we don't need - with money we don't have - to impress people we don't like." "Fight Club " - Chuck Palahniuk.
- To be more confident. «Sing like no one is listening. Love like you’ve never been hurt. Dance like nobody’s watching, and live like it’s heaven on earth.» - Mark Twain
There is Writer who can mount the thought, which seemed have everyone in own head, but cannot be mount by one’s, and therefore understood by the owner of the head:
"If you find yourself around the bad world, think about what you did to get into it. Maybe you're not even a war criminal, but simply too much follow friend feed or watch TV. So, you can change only these habits.
There is one simple proven technique. Slow, but the most reliable way to move into the happy worlds, which described in all ancient books. All of it the same - techniques of correct life. And it very difficult to observe the techniques ("Do not lie, do not kill, do not steal," etc. the techniques not only for the physical world, but also for mind). "
"With the darkest daily rituals we transshipped from one bawdy universe to another one, waiting for the purifying revolution that will break all the locks, unlocks all the doors and split all of the skulls."
Victor Pelevin "The love to three zuckerbrin"
There is an effective way to understand the reality, Imagine yourself from the standpoint of eternity and the universe - it's not even funny, it's just nothing.
