Let’s eliminate waste from souls and societies

 

In the present day, both individual souls and societies are burdened by an abundance of waste, characterized by the tendency to blame others for their shortcomings. Many peo­ple hold steadfastly to the belief that their own actions are always right, while condemning the actions of others due to the pervasive pessimism that pervades their souls and communities.

Those who embrace such a pessimistic outlook fail to recognize any glimmer of optimism in others. Consequently, they can never find favor in anything done by someone else. As a result, they bear the heavy burden of perpetual dissatisfaction, without ever allow­ing themselves a respite from the weight of resentment, blame, accusation, and pessimistic attitudes.

However, this does not imply that everything should be evaluated through an over­ly optimistic lens. Rather, it is imperative that individuals approach their analyses with the right perspectives and atti­tudes. Decisions ought to be as correct as possible, based on the knowledge and experienc­es accumulated throughout their lives. By doing so, they will be better equipped to dis­cern right from wrong. When tackling any issue, they must do so without bias, ensuring that their assessments remain fair and just.

Only by eliminating bias and pessimism from their as­sessments can individuals ar­rive at accurate answers and viable solutions. Otherwise, their pessimistic attitudes will continually impede their progress. If everything they do is motivated by pessimism, they will inevitably be plagued by suffering. Their dissatisfactions will consume them, and the blame and accusations they level against others will become an enduring burden on their shoulders.

Each and every person must begin by cleansing their own souls, followed by their societies, by refusing to entertain the disruptive forces of pessimism. When most issues are approached with an optimistic mindset, individuals will experience the reflection of satisfaction and contentment. This immeasurable pleasure is something that everyone desires. Indeed, no one willingly seeks to descend into the depths of despair in their lives.

Rather, they strive to make choices that lead to improvement and betterment. Therefore, if someone unintentionally errs, it is incumbent upon others to extend forgiveness for their actions.

If all individuals embrace the understanding that everyone can inadvertently make mistakes, their souls will find peace. Conse­quently, the society in which these individuals reside will undoubted­ly become more tranquil. It is imperative, therefore, for individuals within a society to cleanse their souls, freeing themselves from the shackles of hatred, dissatisfaction, blame, accusation, and the wastefulness associ ated with pessimistic measures. Only when waste is eradicated from their souls can societies break free from the clutches of pessimism, animosity, and remorse.
