A human’s poem on Humanity

You are one and the same
You don’t want to accept that fact
You are desperate and deliberate
You see inequality and difference
You forget the oneness

You love unnecessary pride
You make something out of nothing
You don’t realize yourself
You forget the oneness

You love sentiments
You admire the concomitant thoughts
Your don’t admire it in the same you in others
You forget the oneness

You are happiness
You are sadness
You are courage
You are fear
You forget the oneness

You are war
You are peace
You are love
You are hatred
You forget the oneness

You are selfish
You are benevolent
You are greedy
You are altruistic
You forget the oneness

You are great
You are worthless
You are useful
You are useless
You forget the oneness

You see beauty
You see ugliness
You are smart
You are dumb
You forget the oneness

You are lustful
You are monkish
You are shy
You are bold
You forget the oneness

You think from different bodies
You talk from different bodies
You sense ambience from different bodies
You are the same one in different bodies
You forget the oneness

You are alike in spotting difference
You love feeling unique
You are experts in inequality
You forget the oneness

Practice of reasonable and pragmatic faith

The broad cardinal principles that go into successful practice of this kind of faith are the following

1) Accepting the greatness of every human being irrespective of his stature in society unconditionally.
2) Realising and killing vanity and conceit in every form in the mind. Recognise its nature to cause fatigue and distraction.
3) Stop being concerned of other's thoughts and actions and minding one's own. (Because everyone is provided with the equal capacity to take care of oneself)
4) Stop blaming and finding fault in others.
5) Be concious of what one desires and pursues. This includes shedding any after thoughts on incidents that have occured.
6) Stop doubting one's capability under any circumstances. Be patient in circumstances which are unhelpful.

Above all this the mind is the source of all philosophy hence question the mind for answers.
