Armageddon

What can I do as a citizen of this world?

For those of you who read this article and think to yourselves ‘now what?’, we have provided some practical information on what each of you can do to help the situation.

The basic aim is to reduce the raja and tama in the environment or to increase the subtle basic sattva component in the society.

We have separated the plan of action into 4 quadrants:

What can I do? Plan of action for myself and to help others

Quadrant 1: What can I do at a basic level?

  • Firstly please take the time to understand this article thoroughly. Also study the related articles as it will give you a more well-rounded understanding of the issue.

  • You can help by filling the survey form and giving your comments about the article as well as what you feel needs to be done mainly at a spiritual level to avert this disaster. You can also volunteer and let us know what you would like to do for the spread of spirituality. If you have any questions please email us by clicking on the 'contact us' link.

    • If you are not doing any spiritual practice, we have provided you with some simple spiritual practice to get you started on your spiritual journey. There is no better time to start than today.

    • If you are currently doing some spiritual practice, check if it conforms to the five basic principles of spiritual practice. Do ponder deeply over the five basic principles of spiritual practice. Though they may seem deceptively simple, it is in the application of these principles that most people stumble.

  • Spiritual practice has to be complemented with an open minded study of Spirituality. The study has to be without cultural bias as we study in a university or college. Only when we are clear about spiritual principles can we make decisions about how to guide and direct our spiritual practice. To facilitate a seeker’s spiritual understanding, we are conducting various lectures worldwide.

  • At a physical level to help reduce the effect of green-house gases, please refer to www.climatecrisis.net

Each one of us starting spiritual practice that conforms to the five basic principles of spiritual practice helps in the overall increase in the sattva component and concomitant decrease in the raja and tama components.


Quadrant 2: What can I do at a basic level to help others?

No man is an island and we are all a part of society. No man can remain unscathed when the entire world is severely affected. Hence it becomes imperative, that we take steps to positively influence the world as it consists of our beloved, relatives, friends, associates, colleagues, etc.

  • Pass this article on to your friends, family, acquaintances and interest groups. Every one of us needs to know about these events. What we do then is up to each one of us.

  • Once you learn, practice and understand a spiritual principle do tell others about it. Do not wait to be proficient yourself before you start sharing it with others. Remember, when you learn ‘A’ share ‘A’, do not wait until you go to ‘Z’.

 

Quadrant 3: What are the next steps at an individual level?

  • After we start spiritual practice, we need to progressively improve the quality and quantity of our spiritual practice. For example, if one is able to chant the Name of God for one hour a day, in the next month one can try and increase it to two hours.  In short, we need to become a seeker of God.

  • We define the stage of seeker as one where:

    • One does spiritual practice with a definite decided goal of God-realisation; spiritual practice and spiritual growth takes centre stage in our life even when going about our everyday life.

    • One does spiritual practice daily.

    • The spiritual practice conforms to the basic principles of spiritual practice.

    • One remains in regular contact with other seekers with the objective of being in the company of the Truth and learning spiritual principles.

    • One aims to make definite spiritual progress regularly and is alert to stagnation in spiritual practice.

  • When one is at this stage one can begin to contribute more effectively to increasing the sattva component on Earth.

 

Quadrant 4: What are the next steps to help society?

  • Once we have gained the qualities of a seeker as described above, we become more efficient instruments to do God’s work.

  • Helping spread spiritual awareness that is of a universal nature in society is the fastest way to earn the grace of the Teaching Principle of God i.e. the Guru.
