How do you make the world a better place....?

Answer 1

Everything should be done in moderation.

You must make the mind, which runs after outward things,
to merge in the atma.

Let happiness and sorrow come and go like the clouds.

First step - selfless action. Second step - tranquility.
Third step - remaining in nishdai, or service to humanity,
according to your will.

Learn how to remain always happy.

Do not allow the mind to run in different directions.You must make it become one- pointed.

You must not come to the conclusion that there are no stars, because you are unable to see stars in the daytime.

What is the use of going on pilgrimage if you do not improve yourself?

It is not possible to straighten the kink in a dog's tail. Let us improve ourselves instead of trying to improve the world.

Beware of bad qualities.

Remain separate like the five fingers. but when there is work to do, co-operate in doing it like the hand.

Without being content with what we have, we always want more and therefore suffer.

Everything will turn out successfully, when the mind is not agitated.

How foolish it is to judge a man by one bad quality, ignoring all his other good qualities.

When you have a small job, you want a big job. When you get a big job, you want a large salary. When you get a large salary, you are anxious for the welfare of your children. If everything continues like that, where is the end?

What are you going to do with the money you accumulate? Can you increase your life-span even for a day? Give generously when you can.

In someone you consider bad there may be qualities greater than those that Mahatma Gandhi had.

When the mind is pure no harm will befall you, even if you strike a man.

If the chimney is full of smoke, how can the light be seen? If the mind is full of dirt, how can the soul shine?

You can bluff others, but you cannot bluff yourself. If you behave according to your conscience, everything will come right.

Lord Jesus Christ has said: "Don't suffer for my sake. Work hard for your own emancipation." Without improving yourself, what is the use of doing service to me?

We must improve ourselves; we should not look for the help of others for our own improvement.

You must be very careful even about small things. Without the small axle-pin the whole car will collapse.

Water flows to the lowest place and stays there. Similarly you also remain humble.

We are all the same. Difference is only in degree.

You must not worship God with the aim of obtaining some profit. You must not worship even with the desire for liberation.

Speak what comes from within. Otherwise don't speak.

Live for the sake of the world.

Answer 2

The only way to redeem our world is to rid it of ultra selfishness and short-sightedness. This will ensure that matters of collective interest and longer term importance are not ignored for the sake of individual benefit and urgent results. This will also eradicate another major flaw in the current outlook.... giving quantity a higher priority over quality.

I have answered what is to be done, because unfortunately I have no idea how it is to be done... had I known that, I would have made a beginning long ago towards the all important task. I am still stating what needs to be done in the distant hope that perhaps someone else may be able to find the way forward!!

Answer 4

Oviously its all starts at home. School next, as teachers play a very important and major part in our children's lives. So we have to set good examples for everyone we meet and have a chance to communicate with. Often times i've been out and people seems so sad, not smiling you know. Like the whole world is on their shoulders you know. Smile gives people hope. We have to treat everyone as equals i think. Share, Show love. I think a good start would be something like: Meet your neighbours day. I think this would be a great start. I mean, where's all the trust gone? So coming together as a community is a good start, then we go on from there.

Anyway, he tried to make the world better place in the 1940's but everyone kept stopping him. Apparently, he built big resorts, as big as CITIES to keep all the good people inside and they had big ovens where they made pizzas and they had showers everyday, and they had meals everyday and the babies were looked after.
Unfortunately, he got very depressed because people were horrible to him and then he killed himself.
