BELIEF



While some, including my guru, may say we are what we eat, I am more inclined towards Anton Chekov: Man is what he believes. From them then transcends his actions, attitudes and feelings. Generally we can say that :

Belief + Desires = Action

When we believe in our beliefs, they become something of value i.e. something important and worthy of honour. Our feelings are as important as our desires, hopes and dreams which are all a part of the person we are. They are as a result of our beliefs.

AS such it is imperative that we examine our beliefs especially of important things, to see whether they are justified and true. False beliefs mislead and risk leading to nothing but misery.

I also tend to believe that belief is in a way a mental state. The deeper you believe, the more likely it has the possibility to transcend into reality. Remember the old addage, what you say is your prayer? People have been experiencing the power of the subconscious mind that the phenomenon has been used in various therapies.
