Keys to successful living

Keys to successful living part 1

                Everyone wants to be successful in life, but where are the keys to success? Do we have to go out and search for those keys, or do we have those potentials already within ourselves? When we begin to examine life, we can see that it is divided into two aspects—life within and life without; internal life and external life—and we can see that these aspects are equal importance. Even if we have these aspects are of equal importance. Even if we have renounced the world, gone far away from civilization. Even if we have renounced the world, gone  far away from civilization , and live in the wilderness doing nothing but meditation, we cannot ignore external life. We still have to see that we eat, do out ablutions, and perform our practices on time. So life in the external world is as important as life in the internal world. Even one who has the world to understand the word relationship. The breath, and the breath is related to the mind. The bodies, breathe, senses, and mind all function together as a unit. So life virtually means relationship, and thus the art of living and being requires an understanding of one’s relationship to the external world and the relationships of one self.
